What is the Pono philosophys belief on the subject of death?
Death was a “change of address” from the physical plane back to the Spiritual one. A return to where we started, hopefully with learned lessons intact that would help the spirit to grow, so the return to earth on the next go-round would bring that spirit back into the ‘ohana (clan) even better able to contribute to the harmony and aloha of all. In the spirit realm, the dead were ‘Na Kupuna’ the helping, cherished loved ones guiding those who were here, as teachers who were particularly valued because they had been here before. They knew what we were up against, and that, as one kupuna who passed said after she changed address, “The only thing that matters in life, and the only thing about life that is remembered in Spirit, is love and the lack of it.
