The Teachings of Huna (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. The Secret Science Behind Miracles & Self-SuggestionBy Max Freedom Long
Length16h 27m
About this audiobook
In The Teachings of Huna, Max Freedom Long presents Huna as a practical metaphysical system allegedly preserved within ancient Hawaiian wisdom. He explains its tripartite model of consciousness—often rendered as the low, middle, and higher selves—along with mana, symbolic language, prayer, visualization, and techniques of personal transformation. The book combines spiritual instruction, speculative anthropology, and occult self-help, moving between anecdote, interpretation, and prescriptive exercises. Its literary context lies in the early twentieth-century Western fascination with Polynesian religions, esotericism, and the psychology of the subconscious. Although Long's account has influenced New Age spirituality, scholars of Hawai'i generally regard Huna as a modern synthesis rather than an authentic representation of traditional Hawaiian religion. Long was an American educator and writer who lived in Hawai'i and became interested in reports concerning kahuna healers and indigenous spiritual practices. His encounters there, together with the era's comparative-religion, psychical-research, and self-improvement movements, encouraged him to formulate a coherent system from fragmentary observations and his own interpretations. The book therefore reveals as much about twentieth-century Western spiritual seeking as it does about the Hawaiian culture it invokes. Readers interested in esotericism, the history of alternative spirituality, and cross-cultural constructions of religious knowledge will find The Teachings of Huna intellectually provocative. It is best approached critically: valuable as a document of modern occult thought, yet read alongside responsible scholarship on Hawaiian traditions and cultural representation.
