Hawaiian meditation for healing: Ho-oponopono -- Compassion in Action

Are you ready to tap into the transformative power of your heart and compassion? Follow this link to learn about an extraordinary practice: Ho'oponopono, an ancient Hawaiian meditation that involves learning to heal all things byaccepting "Total Responsibility" for everything that surrounds us: http://www.globalmeditations.com/hoopono.htm.This is such an amazing practice! The essence of Compassion in Action. I look forward to hearing what you all think about it. When I posted this on our Compassionate Listening ning site – these two

moving stories surfaced:

One friend’s story:

I had an experience of this recently. I was thinking about how I wronged someone 14 years ago, and
internally apologizing to that person for what I put him through...fully acknowledging my part and all of the pain that I created. It brought tears to my eyes, realizing the scope of my actions and how sorry I felt in my heart. I thought about calling the person to apologize, but just kept offering my silent apology...
Three hours later, that very person walked into my house with a gift for me. I was so amazed...and the timing was so profound that there was no way I could accept it as a coincidence. I think this teaching is profound - thanks for sending it to us Susan. Anyone else had a recent experience along these lines?

Another friend’s story: I "tried this out" in regard to someone with whom I have had a broken relationship for

over ten years. It was my ex-husband and I've had no contact whatsoever with him all this time. After I read your posting, I decided to try it and meditated about him with the "I love you, I'm sorry...." That evening, I told another friend that I wished there could be some kind of resolution to this very painful situation. Next morning, I awoke early from a dream about him, the only one I've ever had. We were returning to the place where we lived, and he said to me very clearly, "I love you more than ever." The house was by the sea, and I saw water, gently flowing in and out of the room. That was the end of the dream. A couple of hours later, I got up to read my email, and received notice of his death. I am simply stunned by the power of opening the heart this way. Thank you again for sharing this!
