Ho’oponopono is essentially more about acceptance than it is, forgiveness.
The modern meaning centering around forgiveness, was perpetuated by the West.
Now that is not to say the famous mantra does not work. It does. ✨
But the meaning behind it and its power, has now been altered & watered down from that of the true origins of Ho’oponopono.
And let me tell you that meaning makes a massive difference to escaping patterns and karma 🤯
Let’s look at the first line of the modern mantra:
‘Please forgive me’
ie: I’m a sinner, I’m faulty, in error etc. This religious take of us being sinful or broken, is not Ho’oponopono
Ho’oponopono is ultimately about acceptance. Acceptance with forward movement.
It is far far more powerful
Acceptance of what has happened and now what?
Acceptance by declaring yourself independent from another’s actions.
It doesn’t make the persons behavior okay but it does free you from their darkness, their hurtful actions.
Do you see? That’s real freedom ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Now when applied to yourself, it means
I am whole
I am divinity
BUT somewhere along the way I have accepted untruths, due to trauma and repeated harm, about myself.
Unworthy, unloveable, broken- these are all the effects of other humans NOT of the Divine.
And so Ho’oponopono is used to clear those untruths, programs and bring you back to your original blueprint.
There is no heavy focus on guilt or shame.
To make yourself guilty, wrong or broken only deepens the untruth that brought about the circumstances and your behavior in the first place and you will find yourself in a painful loop.
When forgiving others, you may be doing it to be righteous but then find yourself in a new loop of resentment as they continue behaviors or you find you have offered forgiveness too soon and without proper processing.
This acceptance or forgiveness should focus on a clearing of the emotional charge ⚡️
So for example: when applied to another’s actions you declare independence from their actions but you may not necessarily allow them to remain in your life.
The focus is freeing yourself 🪽
Much more effective 🥂🙌🏻
