A bit more on Ho'oponopono for those who may have been left with questions about how it works. Programming is simply any thought form/ belief system, idea that has already originated, and is therefore in the past. Data is constantly being created and when we hold onto it, there's no room to receive Inspiration (new data) from Divine Intelligence. The first video I saw on Self I-dentity through Ho'oponopono (SITH) was a seminar conducted by Joe Vitale, who learned about this ancient Hawaiian tradition from Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len (he was exposed to it my kahuna Morrna Simeona). In the one hour video, Vitale uses a whiteboard and sharpie to illustrate how data fills up the board with ideas, thoughts, beliefs, (programming) etc and as we "clean", essentially we are erasing the data, and thus returning to zero, or no thought. It is only in a zero state that we can receive new data, or true inspiration (think ah ha or eureka moment). The vast majority of the time, our actions and behaviors are motivated by reasons, or programming (go to work to make money, clean bathroom to keep spouse from getting angry, like a post b/c we want the person to like us, etc). And so we have a choice to clean the data and receive Inspiration, or continue being run by programs. This all hinges upon 100% responsibility for everything we perceive in the world. There is no "out there" and only "in here." And the metadata if you will, is that the program seeks out something wrong, and so we remain stuck in the loop until we clean. As T alluded, there's other prayers that can be used to transmute programming, but this one in particular has had some profound results, not the least of which includes closing an insane asylum filled with people who committed violent, perverse crimes. ALoha!
