In Huna, the working theory is that we have three souls, or parts of the soul, or selves. Building on this, we can effectively talk with our inner child, understand where inspiration comes from, and more.
1. Ku (Subconscious Self)
- Alternate Names: Unihipili, Lower Self, Basic Self
- Explanation: The Ku is the subconscious mind responsible for memories, habits, emotions, and bodily functions. It operates based on past experiences and learned patterns.
- Example: When driving a car, the Ku manages routine tasks like steering and shifting gears without conscious thought. It also holds emotional responses, such as feeling anxious before public speaking due to past experiences.
2. Lono (Conscious Self)
- Alternate Names: Uhane, Middle Self, Conscious Mind
- Explanation: The Lono is the conscious mind responsible for logical thinking, decision-making, and intentional actions. It engages in planning, analyzing, and deliberate problem-solving.
- Example: When solving a math problem, the Lono focuses on understanding the equations and calculating the correct answer. It actively makes choices, such as deciding what to eat for lunch or planning a vacation.
3. Kane (Higher Self)
- Alternate Names: Aumakua, Higher Self, Superconscious Self
- Explanation: The Kane is the higher self or spiritual self, representing the connection to the divine, intuition, and higher wisdom. It's also the entirety of our ancestors, always connected to us. It provides guidance and inspiration beyond ordinary awareness.
- Example: Experiencing a sudden insight or "aha" moment while meditating or feeling a strong inner knowing about a major life decision reflects the influence of the Kane. It is also accessed during deep spiritual practices or moments of profound clarity.
