What is HATA RA?

Haka La, or Hata Ra as Kalehua prefers, is safe sungazing. It is from Orero Matuahine (our Mother Tongue). Hata means “to stare or gaze” and Ra is, in this case, “sun.”

SAFE sungazing is the act of looking at either the first hour of sunrise or the last hour of sunset. An art practiced thousands of years ago by our Polynesian ancestors and many other cultures around the world, harnessing the energy from the sun as their primary source of food, whereby limiting or at many times even eliminating their intake of food as the sun for them, was, as Kalehua believes, our primary source of energy.

On Friday, July 24, 2015, Kalehua embarked on a 90 day journey to gain firsthand experience in Hata Ra. His progress can be followed on his Facebook page and he has posted some pretty fabulous insights about this ancient practice and his experiences, both mentally and physically.

KALEHUA UPDATE - September 21. 2015

BACKGROUND OR HISTORY OF HATA RA

Kalehua became interested in Hata Ra when he began viewing videos of Hira Ratan Manek (www.solarhealing.com). Being a gifted natural healer himself, Kalehua is always looking for alternative healing options, when this modality caught his eye. From Manek’s website:

"Hira Ratan Manek (HRM), among others, have proven that a person can live just on solar energy for very long periods without eating any food. This has come to be known as the HRM phenomenon. The method is used for curing all kinds of psychosomatic, mental and physical illnesses as well as increasing memory power and mental strength by using sunlight. One can get rid of any kind of psychological problems, and develop confidence to face any problem in life and can overcome any kind of fear including that of death within 3 months after starting to practice this method. As a result, one will be free from mental disturbances and fear, which will result in a perfect balance of mind. If one continues to apply the proper sungazing practice for 6 months, they will be free from physical illnesses. Furthermore, after 9 months, one can eventually win a victory over hunger, which disappears by itself thereafter."

The sun has been worshipped in ancient civilizations and countless stories have been told of the power and respect that people gave to the sun. Perhaps it is because ancient people knew the true power of the sun.

LEARN ABOUT THE SAFE AND PROPER WAY TO SUNGAZE

Kalehua will be offering presentations on Hata Ra ~ how he learned about it, his experiences to date, testimonials from others who are beginning the practice under Kalehua’s mentorship, and the safe and proper way to sun gaze. In addition, he will field questions at the end of the presentation so interested people can practice Hata Ra, too. Please check the Future Events page for upcoming presentation dates.
