ALTHOUGH "HUNA" IS NOT OFFICIALLY PART OF HAWAIIAN CULTURE, YARDLEY PROVIDES AN EXCELLENT AND VERY READABLE REVIEW OF THIS TOPIC. HER RESPECT AND EMPHASIS ON KAHUNA BRAY AND HIS KNOWLEDGE IS HEARTWARMING. THE USE OF A "SPIRITUAL GUIDE" IN HER WRITING REFLECTS A TRUE HAWAIIAN OR KAHUNA EXPERIENCE. NO OTHER BOOK ON THIS TOPIC SPECIFICALLY DOES THIS. I WAS IMPRESSED. AN ACADEMIC NATIVE HAWAIIAN WROTE THIS REVIEW.

If you are interested in a brief overview of HUNA that is an easy to understand volume that you can read in one or two sittings.

I appriciate Laura's tribute to the late Max Freedom Long.

This is NOT a HUNA handbook. For that I recommend "The Secret Science At Work", "Growing into Light" Max Freedom Long, or "Fundamentals Of Hawaiian Mysticism" Charlotte Berney.

The Long material is superior in my opinion.

Now I direct my comments to "The Grand Duke of Avram" a reviewer below. None are as blind as those that refuse to see.

Wah doh Ogedoda

I read this book in one sitting as I was unable to put it down. There are so many books that complicate simplicity. I believe our life path should unfold simply from within. This book offers a basic simple method for understanding yourself and your surroundings in a way that makes it easy to apply in your life. You can have, be and live as you wish. Learn the basics in one sitting.

The book promises a lot. It can easily be read in an evening. All it delivers is a lot of trite sayings that you could pick up in any essoteric book. It does not contribute 1 iota to the overall knowledge on Huna. The best thing in the book is the five pages of Bibliography at the end, because all she does is simply review others works. It is the standard of a research paper by a high school student which I would have difficulty in passing. Overall all I have purchased is an expensive bibliography which I did not need.
