Max F. Long (1890–1971)

This book conains the parts from HUNA VISTAS 1-11 which contain discussions of the Tarot by Max Freedom Long. In 1957 the Huna Research BULLETINS ended after nine years of publication with the 122nd issue. In September, 1959 Max Freedom Long resumed regular commnication with the members of Huna Research Associates via a mimeographed bulletin, at first called New Horizons, but immediately changed to HUNA VISTAS. This series continued until the end of 1970 when teh 98th issue was sent out, less than a yar before Max's "graduation." In May, 1971 he prepared one brief HUNA VISAS NEWSLETTER, which started the third series of bulletins that is still being published by the Huna Research Associates, 126 Camellia Ddrive.

""I will tell you a secret," says Max Freedom Long in Short Talk No. 8, "if you will the care to spread it far and wide." He then proceeds to give a hint about the effective use of the huna prayer-action.

"Huna" means secret in the Hawaiian language, and it was Max Freedom Long who uncovered the secrets of the ancient kahunas and made them known to the world through his many books and bulletins.

As groups were formed for the study and practice of the Huna system, Max Long provided study materials in the form of taped lectures. The first series was in the mid-1950's, only one of which has survived. It is an excellent general discourse on "The Need for Understanding and Using Huna" (1957). In the early 1960's another series of huna lectures was made on tape, numbering twelve in all. It was found that tapes of forty-five minutes or an hour were too long for group listening, but were excellent for individual study. And so, revisions were begun and nine short talks of about twenty minutes each were completed.

It is these short talks that are transcribed for you here.

Max Freedom Long speaks informally to his students about the Ten Elements of Man. As we "listen in" we hear theories and speculations on the origin of man and of the Huna system. But, he always comes back to the Ten Elements--the three selves with their "shadowy" bodies, three greades of vital force, and the physical body. And always he speaks i practical terms on the use of the huna concepts.

Huna students of today will find these discussions as helpful now as they were when they were first made nearly a decade ago.--Dr. E. Otha Wingo… (mais)

Here, at last, is an explanation of how and why mesmerism and hypnosis operate.

Such an explanation is exceptionally important for the futherance of the work along these lines. Doctors and dentists asre finding hypnosis an invauable aid in preventing pain. Psychiatrists who use hypnosis are discovering a short cut in their methods of uncovering the hidden causes of ills in the subconscious.

Laymen are increasingly interested in the results obtained, but many are still fearful of hypnosis. Some believe that it is domination of the subject by the will-power of the operator, and refuse to chance such domination.

Tkhrough history, men have feared what they could not understand. But now the HUNA theroy explains exactly what forces and elements are involved in mesmerism and hypnosis (two very different things, by the way). Gone is the need to fear "domination."

With the theory is given the step by step method of using self-suggestion. All is presented in complete detail so that the average reader can begin to use it quickly. For the expenditure of a small amount of time and energy each day, one can take advantage of the many benefits accruing, such as moods brightened, work lightened, efficiency stepped up, and better health assured.

In fact, this book describes the crowning achievement of the years of research spent in restoring the ancient system of psychological knowledge once known only as "The Secret", or Huna. Since the rediscovery of this long lost science in 1936, the research work has continued steadily to find the best ways of putting this information to use.

Self-Suggestion has been found to be one of the greatest aids in attaining the goal toward which all intelligent people are striving-that of "the more abundant life."… (mais)

We have learned to put ExtraSensory-Perception to work.

Herein is described by Mr. Long the rather new method of determining the "I.Q" of an individual without asking him a single question.

All that is needed, when one has learned to use the method, is the signature, photograph or thumbprint of the person to be read. The person may be of any age, from a few months to advanced years. Even the dead can be measured in this way, and many of the famous men and women of the past reveal through Psychometric Analysis just how great they were and why they were great.

The advantages of knowing the inner nature of individuals, their basic characteristics, and their level of intelligence are very great. Parents and teachers can gain a far more complete and revealing knowledge of those whom they are called upon to guide and direct.

In dealing with strangers, readings can quickly be made and theie basic good or bad tendencies determined. No wolf in sheep's clothing can avoid being recognized for what he is.

Psychometry is measuring by means of one's psychic ability. Ordinarily, this is difficult to master. But a very simple way has been found to allow the psychic forces to come to the surface through the use of "codes" and to show what has been found by the extra-sensory faculties which all of us possess, and which most of us can use if we apply this method.
