About this audiobook

The Teachings of Huna presents Max Freedom Long's concise exposition of the esoteric system he called Huna, a modern synthesis of metaphysics, psychology, and practical spirituality. Framed in lucid, instructional prose rather than narrative form, the book explains concepts such as the three selves, vital force or mana, prayer, and the unseen bonds of thought and intention. Its literary context lies within twentieth-century occult writing, New Thought, and comparative religion, where speculative interpretation often sought to recover hidden wisdom from ancient traditions. Max Freedom Long was an American writer and teacher whose work grew from his early years in Hawaii and his fascination with what he believed to be the secret knowledge of the kahuna. Although his claims have been disputed by scholars of Hawaiian culture, Long's writings reflect a broader interwar and postwar search for spiritual technologies that could unite faith, mind, and healing practice. This book is recommended for readers interested in modern esotericism, alternative spirituality, and the history of occult interpretations of Polynesian traditions. It should be read critically, with awareness of its contested cultural assumptions, yet it remains an important document for understanding the development and appeal of the Huna movement.
