Here is the short synopsis:
"Native Of Owhyhee" - WGA.reg. 1170301 © Jo Danieli 2009 In the mid 19th century, Hawaii turned from an ancient "pagan" society into one of the most literate Christian nations in the world, leaving behind eras of tribal cults and sacrifices, of legendary magical ways of living predating even the era of the settlement of Polynesia. The intersection of cultures in Hawaii begun thousands of years ago, continued with Western contact and eclipsed in the fate of several young Hawaiian sailors and a Prince who played historical key-roles in the era of greatest changes when they introduced the pioneer American Christian missionaries to the islands.

(56 expert speakers, 10 Hawaiian narrators; over 1000 historical images, cultural footage, historical film-clips and great original Hawaiian music.)
Aloha and best regards

Oily Teeth and Hands
by Mai-Britt Rosendal

Aloha fellow shamans.
I have never been to The Gulf of Mexico, yet I have numerous vivid "memories" (images) of both the beauty of this area and the ways of both human and animal life around this sparkling saphire of a water-based-area. All this from novels and films taking place in this area. Very special area. I know because I live on a small island surrounded by friendly waters, how much energy such a water-area-carries and generates.

Now the oil has been pouring out into the sea since late April. This is not a tsunami or an earthquake, and it's not even an Exxon Valdez. Because it still goes on.

I've taught mariners about crude polution, about the great Pacific garbage patches (primarily made of non-bio-degradeble plastics, covering twice the size of Texas, swirling just outside Hawaii) to raise consciousness of our responsibility towards our beautiful oceans - vital energy parts of our living mother earth. Now we see this new challenge.

The greater the challenge (and this one is big) the greater the need for us to join up and reach out to each other - across borders, across continents, across culture and across personal challenges to unite in a gigantic spider-web of light to heal this situation. We must have the power since we got the challenge!

The rest is awareness, a decision and just doing it :D!!! And Yes we can. But we need to break free of every kind of inertia first :) And we need to work on this as often as we brush our teeth :)) So this is my suggestion (and you can add your own! The more ideas the better!)

How about we dedicate every second of brushing our teeth, and every second of our washing our hands every day (plus healing circle obviously) to the brushing away/washing away crude from the coasts of Pensacola and every other place affected by the oil spill! (also the places not mentioned in the media) How about we dedicate our washing-hand-time and brushing teeth-time to the washing and brushing away of oil from the feathers and bodies of animals in the entire area. Let our special "colgate-formula" or gentle biological soap wash away and extinquish every tar ball, every drop of oil that does not belong on that coast, on that bird, that fish, that living creature, in this big vast & beautiful blue sea of the gulf.

And how about, every time we do this, we imagine our shaman friends and their friends and their friends too, and their neighbours, and their aunts and grandmothers doing the same!

American people, Indian people, Irish people, Italian people, German, Danish, Dutch, African, Australian - all the people of all the earth - more people of more nations and continents that I know of! All washing away oil. Rendering through our collective light of intention a pristine, pure, healthy, shining Mexican Gulf and all related coastlines and wetlands. Let's come together people :) We have the power and it's time! Let's make it so!

P.S. We can also apply the ideas at http://www.huna.org/html/911.html.
