European Ho'oponopono Center

Ho'oponopono is a process of forgiveness, that is to say a way to erase the feeling of guilt buried in our unconscious since the dawn of time, more precisely since the birth of the mind. This birth took place at the end of the period of the animal stage and it marks the beginning of the awareness of existence, the awareness of oneself. It ends with the enlightenment of the individual. We'll see how.

During this period of awareness, individuality forms and a vague sense of guilt develops. It is due to the memory of separation from God. The individual feels more and more separated from his group, which gives him a feeling of abandonment and great fear. He feels like he's done something wrong and has been kicked out, kicked out of the group.

This guilt also creates another fear: the fear of punishment. This fear, amplified by most religions, is unbearable for an individual. The only way to bear it is to deny it, to refuse to see it. The individual thus finds a very relative feeling of peace. Indeed, denying a reality does not erase it and this fear will spread in each of the cells of each being. In an unconscious way, he will develop a new identity, based on guilt and fear and it is this identity that we call the ego. Of course, this new identity is also denied and the consequence of this new denial is the projection onto the outside world of all our inner fears. Thus, fear will influence or even generate all the actions of the individual. His perception of reality will be distorted and he will acquire a personal experience, independent of the group, which will serve him in his further development.
But let's not forget that this feeling of guilt is only an assumption at the start, it is the denial that gave it a reality.

The Ho'oponopono process of self-forgiveness erases this false identity, it does not affect the individual himself. The person therefore remains aware of their history but they will no longer be affected. When all the memories have been erased, she will be freed and will join the group, cheerfully. She will then realize that she had never left him, this is called enlightenment.
