Soul-journey in "a deep sleep during which the spirit leaves her body":<ref>Martha Beckwith : ''Hawaiian Mythology''. Yale U Pr, 1940. p. 173</ref>- 
"Hi{{okina}}iaka fights and overcomes a number of ... monsters. 
*The mo{{okina}}o woman Panaewa, who impedes her way first in the form of fog (kino-ohu), then of sharp rain (kino-au-awa), then of a candlenut (kukui) tree, she entangles ... in a growth of vine ... .
*Two mo{{okina}}o, Kiha and Pua{{okina}}a-loa (Long hog), are caught in a flow of lava ... .
*The shark at the mouth of Waipio valley who seizes swimmers crossing the bay is met and slain.
*Mo{{okina}}olau, chief of the jumping moʻo (mahiki) in the land of Mahiki-waena, is defied ... .
*Two mo{{okina}}o, Pili and Noho, who make travelers pay toll at the bridge across the Wailuku river, are rent jaw to jaw and the way opened for free traffic."

=== Shamanic soul-catching ===
*"Refused hospitality at the home of the chief Olepau [or Kaulahea] in Iao valley, Hi{{okina}}iaka avenges the insult by catching his second soul, as it goes fluttering about as he lies sleeping, and dashing it against the rock Palahele near Waihe{{okina}}e."<ref>[http://www.sacred-texts.com/pac/hm/hm13.htm Martha Beckwith : ''Hawaiian Mythology''. Yale U Pr, 1940. p. 174]</ref>
*"Peleula is a famous makaula or seer, but Hi{{okina}}iaka prevails over her. Waihinano, the pert sorceress who defies her on Maui, has been brought up by Kapo and Pua, but Hi{{okina}}iaka catches and crushes to death the soul of the Maui chief for which they both contend. ...  Pele gives Hi{{okina}}iaka to Paoa as his wife and he returns with her to Kauaʻi".<ref>[http://www.sacred-texts.com/pac/hm/hm14.htm Martha Beckwith : ''Hawaiian Mythology''.
