Autohuna

Autohuna was my first site, setup in December 1996. It was a site set to promote life, healthy living, natural spontaneous spirituality, the acceptance of all our emotions and desires, and the intrinsic joy of life that comes with a non-judgmental and open mindset. Autohuna was based upon an integrated worldview, which is a worldview that is free of the Cartesian split that pervades modern culture.

The original meaning of Autohuna is a friendship day celebrated among the Tsalagi (Cherokee) nation in North America. This day is spent in prayers, dance, forgiveness and purification and an active revival of existing friendships, as well as the opportunity for forming new friendships. In this term is contained the term Huna which is the wisdom religion from Hawaii, that has mingled, as we know from proven sources, with the native wisdom of the Tsalagi (Cherokee) nation in North America that has created the Autohuna festival.

Thus, Autohuna means something like do Huna with yourself, or, translated into Western psychological language, be a true friend of yourself and apply the essence of love to yourself, in the sense of being tolerant with yourself, to have latitude with your weaknesses, and to do your evolution in little steps, one at a time. It means to develop true humanity!
