Evening Presentation:
The traditional Hawaiian approach to resolving conflicts is rooted in a deep understanding of balance and harmony in the universe and in society. Dis-ease arises when things get out of balance, and so traditional healing is also linked to the resolution of conflicts among members of the community. Dr. Doug Herman, Executive Director of the Pacific Worlds Institute, returns to the Lyman Museum to describe two approaches to hoʻoponopono (“the act of setting things right”)—both the traditional method and a modern revelation that takes the traditional process to an internal level for self-healing. Both reflect broader understandings of how humans should act in the world, the taking of responsibility for the effects of our actions, and the permanent rectification of conflicts without lingering animosity. Catch this thought-provoking program on either of two occasions: Monday evening, September 23, or the following afternoon, September 24.
