Max Freedom Long's Huna Prayer

Max Freedom Long is probably the best known Huna researcher. He was not Hawaiian but did his best to dig deeply into the ancient Huna religion. At one point he wrote the following prayer. Not being a Huna expert I do not know how accurately it reflects true Huna beliefs but it is an excellent basis for most healing. Below I am posting it as I remember reading it then following that I will do my best to explain how I believe it can be used as a basis for self
healing. You can find more information through the study group he started linked below.

If I have hurt someone today in thought or word or deed,
Or failed another in their need, I now repent

If I can take those steps again, tomorrow will I make amends,
And heal with Love those hurts, I do this pledge,

And if a hurt has struck me deep, and no amends are made,
I ask the Light to balance all, I count the debt as paid,

Parental Spirits whom I love, and who I know love me,
Reach through the door I open wide, make clear my Path to thee

Broken down:

If I have hurt someone today in thought or word or deed,
Or failed another in their need, I now repent.

It is the role of the Low Self to record this life but also to clear blocks and deviations from the ideal. Here he is also reminding us not taking action against something we know is wrong or needs to be done is also a mistake. When we, in our daily life do something contrary to being helpful and loving the unconscious records it then first in dream gives us another opportunity to do it right or correctly from the point of not hurting anyone. If that fails then it brings about those In an conditions again in the physical to give you yet another opportunity to undo your mistake. If that fails then it records it in your mental level where in time it will create a physical weakness. The Huna philosophy was that you had all the rights in the world except to harm others. Max is pointing out this extends to all levels thinking, speaking or actions. So step one is to take responsibility for what you do. This also covers not empowering others as in he made me do it or he she makes me feel sick etc. In order to heal yourself you must take personal responsibility. In an ideal situation you would identify where you harmed another or failed their need. If you are not aware of such a thought or action then you could tithe blessing the tithe before you send it. Say to yourself with this sacrifice I now clear any unknown blocks that have kept me from healing.......... You could also do service to strangers such as volunteer but be sure to remind your unconscious that as you do this you are clearing any unknown blocks.
Often as you start down this path you start remembering things and they are usually the issue or something connected to it once you know this you will know exactly how to clear it.

Here you are telling the unconscious you will do it correctly next time possibly sparing you going through it again but at the least re-assuring the Low Self you have learned your lesson and are ready to go forward. This should remove it as a block and enable you to go forward in your healing. You can add power to this by doing a sacrifice the Low Self would recognize such as skipping a meal, helping another, tithing and so forth.

And if a hurt has struck me deep, and no amends are made,
I ask the Light to balance all, I count the debt as paid.

At this point you want to prevent the Low Self which has limited thinking capacity from obsessing about getting revenge. Plus, it is your responsibility to train the Low Self in higher ways such as forgiveness. Here you are telling the Low Self to turn this issue over to the Higher Self and release it. Also, to not cause an action against you such as illness, accident or attempt to harm others.

Parental Spirits whom I love, and who I know love me,
Reach through the door I open wide, make clear my Path to Thee.

Now you are you are reaffirming your relation to the Creator or High Self as one of Love and you are asking for any needed intervention to have contact or inspiration as needed to balance your life. This reminds the Low Self to make the needed contact for the purpose of this prayer.

There are those who have used this prayer to heal physical disorders.
