Ho'oponopono - Prayer For Forgiveness
We have been deeply inspired by the Hawaiian indigenous practice of reconciliation & forgiveness called Ho’oponopono. As we understand it, the word ‘pono’ translates, “to be in balance”, thus bringing what is out of balance back into balance. It calls for us to make things right by first acknowledging the wrongs that have been done, then opening our hearts to forgiveness. Hawaiian historian Kumu Sabra Kauka says, “It is much bigger to forgive, than to carry the burden of blame.” The words of this song are part of a mantra that was inspired by this rich and transformative practice. The prayer is simple yet powerful stating, “I’m sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you.” It captures a small essence of the Ho’oponopono practice and can guide us through our own process of reconciliation when we need it. Use this song to release old hurts, forgive others and yourself, and find peace in the face of wrongdoings. May our version of this song serve your practice and your heart.
