To learn to become a Hunian Healer using your Ki`i Kukui you will need to learn to use some of your native talents that you may not as yet have taken time to develop.

There are several of these talents. Men and women all around us have demonstrated them. Hardly anyone lacks latent psychic abilities that may be trained and made to work in the performance of religious miracles and prayer. Telepathy is so easy to develop that many use it without training. Ability to sense the presence of the beloved dead is very common, and many have excellent mediumistic powers that could enable them to perform that part of healing magic which depends largely on spirit aid.

Section 1 – Developing the Will

Begin at once to learn to use mana. To do this you will begin to practice accumulating mana surcharges through a series of deep breaths. More detailed instructions on making mana are included in your instructions when your Ki’i Kukui arrives and the Huna Conformation Course.

When you can accumulate a very large surcharge, you can then begin practicing to learn to cause the mana surcharge to flow through your hands or along your line of vision into a subject, carrying with it well–made mental pictures or thought–form clusters. These you will have made ready in advance by the use of your Will. If your mana, which is the vital force of the body, is sufficiently accumulated and is discharged strongly into the subject, it will overpower his Aunihipili and force him to accept the mental pictures as his own, then to react to them. Ki`i Kukui Healing magic is performed in this way.

The subject can be made to relax, to sleep, and so on. If the shock of mana is sufficient, and the thought–form–cluster made with enough power, it can break up and replace complexes in the Aunihipili. If there are spirits fastened to the subject, and if he has been brought to turn over a new leaf so that he will refuse to respond to the promptings of the spirits, they may be driven out and commanded to stay away, after first being broken away by the Mesmeric shock of the mana you have projected.

Be warned that if you project a surcharge and hurtful mental pictures to or at a subject, and these fail to be accepted by his Aunihipili, or are blocked from action by his Aumakua or by his spirit friends who may be watching over him, the force and the mental picture will rebound, often with greatly increased power, and lodge in your own Aunihipili, making it the victim. Use the evil eye or spell–casting methods at your peril! Also be warned that all about you are witting and unwitting kahunas who may be consciously or unconsciously projecting mana and mental images at you – weak or strong, good or bad.

Begin at once to practice becoming hurtless and helpful in your every thought and deed. Learn to radiate good and helpful and loving thoughts and do all you can to do good. In this way you will soon build a permanent wall around you which will act as a great magnet, of which you are the center. It will attract the good by its positive pole and repel the bad. If you suspect that many bad thought-form clusters of sickness, bad luck, etc., or many spirits of an evil nature, are already bothering you from former projections against you, or because you have been bad enough to attract to yourself equally bad spirits, begin at once to use this affirmation frequently:

Good, good, good!
I am good. I think only good and helpful thoughts.
I do good and reject all hurtful deeds.
I try to find and throw out daily any thoughts of hate, anger, greed,
jealousy’ and the like.
I now prove my unwavering determination to swing completely over to
the side of Good, by doing some good deed, no matter how small, before
continuing my day’s activities.

A far more powerful way to achieve this is taught in the Huna Conformation Course.

The aspiring Hunian will do well to remember that most of your daily tasks are performed to help others to some degree. If each task is approached and blessed as a Service or a good deed lovingly done for others, the good will be the true coin of the realm.

Section 2 – Strengthen Your Auhane Will

This is a continuation of the step you learned to take earlier. After you have become proficient in the use of mana, begin to strengthen your Auhane Will, or mana–mana. You must first take on a fair surcharge of mana because, without this being present in your body, your Aunihipili cannot get enough of it to make up a batch of strong Will power. This power is developed by daily use of exercises in holding your mind and full attention on something for as long as you are able.

Make a mental picture of the face of a loved one and hold it before your mind’s eye without allowing the face to change in any way. When it slips and begins to change or fade, rest a minute or two. Accumulate a little more mana, and try again. Keep a watch by you and note how long you can hold mental pictures. At first you may find a few seconds your limit. When you have practiced daily for several years, you will be able to hold the Aunihipili to the task for as long as five minutes, and will by then have developed Will power strong enough to create, by a few minutes of this concentrated attention on a mental picture, powerful thought-form clusters which can be projected by the method described in Section 1.

If you wish to know whether you have a strong Will now, request a Psychometric Analysis from the Huna Heiau. Send an email to Support@HunaHeiau.org for details. Psychometric Analyses made at intervals will show whether your practice is getting results. Be warned that if you develop your Auhane’s Will without at the same time developing the ability to become Good and Better day by day, you will soon have a very badly unbalanced Psychometric Analysis pattern and it will begin to cause you much moral breakdown and trouble.

Some imitation magicians – those not having been trained thoroughly in Huna – may use hypnotism or NLP. Beware of these unless you have obtained their signature, written with their own pen and with ink, and had a Psychometric Analysis performed.
In your own work as a budding Hunian Healer, avoid the use of suggestion. Use the very strong mental picture of the Good condition which you wish to implant powerfully in the Aunihipili of those whom you help and heal. Never admit that you are a kahuna just say that you have a natural gift for healing and will be happy to try to use it if the one needing help will turn over a new leaf, etc.

Helping others to turn over a new leaf and to become ready to be healed is the Good Deed at its best. Remember this always.
Ki`i Kukui Healing is an important part of this work. Contact must be made by the simple practice of touching your Ki`i Kukui to the area to be healed. Practice will enable you to become more and more powerful as you go along. Also, results build up slowly if the magical treatment is repeated over and over.

Section 3 – Using your Ki`i Kukui

No Hunian should be without a Ki`i Kukui. Get one by going to http://www.HunaHeiau.org/icons (click on Request Ki`i Kukui at bottom of page). When it arrives, accumulate as large a surcharge of mana as you can. Then build up your Will to a high point of concentration and create a mental picture of what you wish to have your Aumakua do for you when you hold it to do your bidding.

Millions of people have worn or handled a kukui nut, or held one religiously without getting the slightest response. Their trouble has been that they did not know that the power needed to use this type of Icon is not what one would expect at all, but is a large surcharge of mana. So build up your surcharge, make your mental image, and then hold your Ki`i Kukui, and affirm:

I am now calling to the Spirit of Light,
You who remains ever aware of me,
Ever ready to come to me at my request.
I fill myself with mana, which is the living force.
It enables my Ki`i Kukui to become lighted,
To cast its rays down on me,
On this darkened level of being.
I affirm with full faith.
I now believe my call has been heard.
My Aumakua above me,
Great Spirit of Light,
You have come and stand ready.
You receive my mana.
You use it for helping me,
For guiding and illuminating me
And those whom I would help and Serve.
I now send flowing upward
Along the connecting shadowy cord
A strong flow of mana.
With it I send
Carefully and powerfully made `ano`ano,
The seeds of the conditions,
I ask to be brought about.

Many aspiring students have given tip at this point because they could not see the Lord of Light or Aumakua. This is greatly to be regretted, for the Aumakua is always there and will always accept the mana and begin shedding helpful light. A daily replenishing of the Light that stands before the altar of your Innermost Being may be needed if the request you make demands much religious work. All experienced kahunas know that the instant and complete performance of a task by an Aumakua is possible only at rare intervals. They are content to work for many days to get the full task completed.

Many times with fresh wounds, the healing of a Ki`i Kukui is instant. See http://groups.google.com/group/huna_prayer_healing for discussion and experiences related to this.

Be warned at this point that if you attempt to use the magic of the Ki`i Kukui not to Serve others or heal or help yourself, i.e., for Good, but for Evil, i.e., to dominate and Win, there will be grave danger that you will evoke the spirit of a dead person–––a spirit just as un–cleansed and tainted with evil as you may happen to be.

If you are greedy and plan selfish gain, the spirit may be equally so and may take your surcharge of mana and turn to bite the hand that feeds it. These things, when read about in a book of instructions, tell you that a cleansing of your thoughts and heart is indicated. Go back to Section 1 and check what was revealed to you concerning Good. Also review the third floor of Huna Elevator Conversations, which discusses Good and Evil.

Down the centuries kahunas have written out their knowledge in the form of evocations, incantations or invocations. Invariably they have veiled the inner meanings. For this reason the student must take care not to be caught in the foolish trap in which so many have been caught. In the semi–secret orders in Europe and America, even today, they are drawing magic circles, performing strange physical rites, making fumigations, compounding absurd mixtures of frog’s eyes and the leaves of plants gathered in a cemetery on the night of the full moon, and so on. Rare books containing rituals and formulae bring hundreds of
dollars, and men and women gather to study and to try to use them, always ending with nothing accomplished.

If the student has seen such books, and there are many of them, dating from the times of early Egypt on, be warned that the long repetition of invocations with the exact pronunciation of Names of Power all the Words of Power are quite useless to the uninitiated. The kahunas of all ages have piled one absurdity upon another in their writings, all for the purpose of causing the greedy outsider to waste his time, if he is that foolish, trying to perform rites which cannot be performed, and to learn to recite unpronounceable “names” without number.

The famous Seventy–two Names of God are part of this blind. So are the endless names given to supposed gods and demons and spirits, good or bad. Look behind this veil of secrecy for the three elements which are symbolized in all true magic and religion. Watch for the veiled mention of the three selves and of their three mana forces. Watch for the inner cleansing rather than the outer. You can call a spirit, be it bright and good and helpful, or bad and strong and dangerous, provided you have made a contact with it and so have established an aka thread along which you can send a telepathic call – a flow of mana with the picture of its hearing and coming to you. But just to know the name of a spirit and to speak it is a waste of time. There may be a thousand spirits bearing that same name, and besides, with no contact already made, your call will be empty.

Be warned, however, that if some spirit happens to be near, it good or bad, it may hear and accept the call, taking all you have offer, if it is bad, and perhaps in the end taking your body away from you. Evil spirits may remain bound to the earth for centuries, and may become most wise in the matter of doing evil for and against the live student who is even a fraction as evil.

You have read of sympathetic magic in which like produces like – sprinkling of water causing a rain, and the pouring out of an oblation of wine to the gods bringing an outpouring of good things to you return. This is also a blind to veil away the ignorant. Like brings like only when a powerfully constructed mental picture is presented with much mana to the Aumakua or Lord of Light so that on this likeness the Spirit may construct for you a reality. The old fertility rites supposed to bring increase in crops and flocks were of use only if they served to picture the desired things and to furnish through emotion some mana to empower the gods.

Section 4 – Epilogue

Your Ki`i Kukui must be encased in thoughts of Good for all, not just for you, or it will be of limited value.

This is a secret that few know. To become an Icon that can attract good and ward off evil, the Ki`i Kukui must be used in connection with the bringing of good to others as well as to the owner, and it must be used when possible to ward off or remove evil in the same way.
Your Ki`i Kukui may be treated in that way. Shrines are objects or places into which Good has been poured into by a kahuna and made strong and enduring to radiate back to the worshiper all the good he radiates to it in worship. Such a Ki`i Kukui may be filled daily with fresh mana, and your Aumakua invited to come it daily to obtain enough mana to give them the power to do good deeds on the mental and physical levels.

Like birds coming to refresh themselves in the bird bath in your garden, and then going out to clear out hurtful insects, so your Aumakua will soon begin to come, taking the water of mana and looking to see what requests you make for your Aumakua to fulfill. Your requests are mental pictures of things you desire your Aumakua to bring about if it can pour your mana into your Ki`i Kukui, along with the mental picture of things desired for yourself and friends.

Invite your Aumakua daily to take the mana and to assist. But try not to disappoint it by forgetting to leave mana and good requests for it will soon scatter and go elsewhere. Just as an Icon can be made of good this way, an Icon of evil may be established if one is not careful.

The student who uses his or her Ki`i Kukui to get more than he gives, is guilty of breaking the first rule of the Ki`i Kukui – by being greedy and hurtful to the extent that he wishes to take things from others so that he may enjoy the benefits himself. Keep your Ki`i Kukui clear of all things not fully Good for everyone. You cannot steal and hold good things for long. Payment must eventually be made.

On the other hand, one can buy with the coin of good thoughts accompanied by the Wall of Protection anything which is good.

Here is MAGIC for you… for the taking.
