title: The Cry of the Huna: The Ancestral Voices of Hawaii
author:  Moke Kupihea 
description: "Kupihea writes eloquently about the destruction of Hawaiian spiritual values by the invasion of a new culture . . . and the key to returning to a spiritual balance with humankind and nature." (<i>Library Journal</i>)<br /><br /><i>The Cry of the Huna</i> is a journal of hidden things coming to light--an engaging collection of ancestral imagery, narratives, insights, and documented material that becomes Kupiheas own inner journey from violence to wholeness. In sharing his journey with the world, Kupihea adds new light to the universal search for meaning and hope that is based on the spiritual nature and foundation of life. In these days of global insecurity, the timely subject of his book is the search for true identity, ancestral reconnection, and spiritual harmony--a search important not only to native Hawaiians but to all people of Earth. (<i>KAHU KALEO PATTERSON, PH.D., M.DIV., United Church of Christ, and former member of the American Boar</i>)<br /><br />"Kupihea's writing is so clear, so concise, that the reader is literally taking this trip with him. . . . through his ability to move between the past and the present, we are given a clear view of a culture that [it] is most important that we not allow to die away. <br /> <br />"This book will touch you, the reader, in unexpected ways. It will become part of your spiritual growth, whether you are of Hawaiian lineage or not." (<i>Bonnie Cehovet, Angelfire, Sept 2005</i>)

  Keola was married with Lehua, daughter of Kalamake, the wise man
  
  
  of Molokai, and he kept his dwelling with the father of his wife.
  
  
  There was no man more cunning than that prophet; he read the stars, he
  
  
  could divine by the bodies of the dead, and by the means of evil
  
  
  creatures: he could go alone into the highest parts of the mountain,
  
  
  into the region of the hobgoblins, and there he would lay snares to
  
  
  entrap the spirits of the ancient.
  
  
  For this reason no man was more consulted in all the Kingdom of
  
  
  Hawaii. Prudent people bought, and sold, and married, and laid out
  
  
  their lives by his counsels; and the King had him twice to Kona to
  
  
  seek the treasures of Kamehameha. Neither was any man more feared: of
  
  
  his enemies, some had dwindled in sickness by the virtue of his
  
  
  incantations,
