kahunaappears at a reception and presentation, checking him out. From this first meeting grows an abiding friendship, and the enduring spirit of aloha runs throughout the recounting: "to be in the presence of divinity; or in the presence of (alo) the divine breath of life (HA)." Eventually the relationship is cemented by a duplicate ancestral walking stick.
The "Bowl of Light" of the title represents the light or spark of the divine that illuminates each soul from within, starting at the first breath. Most people's negative life choices, those that injure others, fill this bowl with stones until the light nearly goes out. Makua observed, "Hopefully, we wake up to what is going on. . .become aware. . .there is almost no light shining forth." Wessleman then describes him gently taking the bowl and turning it over, shaking it vigorously and advising, "We simply dump it out."
Some readers may wonder about Makua's claim that cetaceans like whales and dolphins are embodiments of our ancestors while others might question details about the book's actual production: if it's disrespectful to take notes when a Hawaiian elder speaks, then how did this tale get written in such scrupulous detail? Trusting in Wesselman's abiding respect and love for Makua, we must assume that his text captures the essence of Makua's message--notes or not.
Bowl of Light , Wesselman composes a masterpiece, sharing Makua's profound talk-story--the indigenous way of imparting wisdom--as the oral tradition is effectively transmitted into the written word. The book is essential for any world wisdom collection and for those on a spiritual path to discover the soul's true heritage, from "the last living holder of this knowledge." --Bobbye Middendorf, ForeWord Reviews, May 2011
Every so often a book comes along with fresh answers to questions you've been contemplating, and suddenly it's like the tumblers of a lock falling into place. It just makes so much sense. The Bowl of Light records the wisdom of Hale Makua, a Hawaiian kahuna and direct descendant of King Kamehameha. Makua formed a deep friendship with Hank Wesselman, a paleoanthropologist and noted shamanic teacher who lives in Hawaii.
Makua's words illuminate some of the deepest existential questions, like who are we, why are we here, what is our purpose, what is God , and what is our place in the universe. His teachings of Polynesian cosmology convey a transcendent universality, and Wesselman deftly draws parallels with more familiar traditions.
Another conceptual trinity is Source and the Masculine and Feminine forces of creation. These creation forces are so intertwined that they are often referred to by the single combined term, Kanewahine. Creation is subject to three laws of the universe: the law of free will, the Law of Aloha (love or logos), which uses light from the third Law of Light to design and physically manifest the universes.
