ALOHA KE AKUA
GOD IS LOVE HAWAIIAN BLESSING "Aloha ke Akua: To recognize ke Akua (God) as the supreme being, to acknowledge His hand in all things, and to be appreciative of His many blessings." mamalahoa.org "The Spirit of Aloha... The literal meaning of aloha is “the presence of breath” or “the breath of life.” It comes from “Alo,” meaning presence, front and face, and “ha,” meaning breath. Aloha is a way of living and treating each other with love and respect. Its deep meaning starts by teaching ourselves to love our own beings first and afterwards to spread the love to others. According to the old kahunas (priests), being able to live the Spirit of Aloha was a way of reaching self-perfection and realization for our own body and soul. Aloha is sending and receiving a positive energy. Aloha is living in harmony. When you live the Spirit of Aloha, you create positive feelings and thoughts, which are never gone. They exist in space, multiply and spread over to others." Hawaii: to-hawaii.com |

LOKA SAMASTA SUKINO BHAVANTU
LOVE IS THE ESSENCE Lokah: location, realm, all universes existing now Samastah: all beings sharing that same location Sukhino: centered in happiness and joy, free from suffering Bhav: the divine mood or state of unified existence Antu: may it be so, it must be so This is a prayer each one of us can practice every day. It reminds us that our relationships with all beings and things should be mutually beneficial if we ourselves desire happiness and liberation from suffering. No true or lasting happiness can come from causing unhappiness to others. No true or lasting freedom can come from depriving others of their freedom. If we say we want every being to be happy and free, then we have to question everything that we do-how we live, how we eat, what we buy, how we speak, and even how we think. From: jivamuktiyoga.com |
