Hey philosophers, don't miss this one (from a brochure):
"The Foundation of I, Inc. (Freedom of the Cosmos) Presents Self-I-Dentity Through Ho'oponopono . . . an ancient Hawaiian process of problem solving."
Here's the answer to it all:
"There is only YOU and YOUR memories of. Everyone and everything exists and appears in your life because YOU and YOUR memories of."
Sponsored by your local "Metaphysical" bookstore -- the Bodhi Tree.
Sounds like Dianetics or EST to me, and the "training" after the first free lecture -- man is it going to cost you.
So much for pop, new-age "multiculturalism," I guess. It provides an excellent cover for recycled self-help scams. But, hey, it must mean SOMETHING, no? Especially if you can't pronounce the Indian or Hawaiian diacritics.
