Te Ao nei e Whai Ana i te Tao

He aha tēnei upoko mō?

Ko tēnei upane e mea ana, ina whai te ao katoa i te Tao, ka noho rāhui ngā hoiho taua, ka haere ki ngā pāpāhana ki te para rākau mō ngā whenua. Engari ina ka ngaro te Tao i te ao, ka whakaputaputa ake ngā hoiho taua i ngā pāpāhana, i ngā wāhi pakanga. Ko te mea nui rawa ake o ngā ākinga katoa, ko te kore mōhio ki te ngāwari me te pai. Ko te tino hara nui rawa ake, ko te hiakai kaha, te patu i te ngāwari. Nā reira, mā te mōhio ki te ngāwari, ka tū pūmau te ngāwari.

He aha tēnei ki ahau?

Hei tēnei wā, kei te nui taku hiakai mō ngā mea katoa – he taonga, he whare, he pūkenga hoki. Engari i tēnei upane, ka mōhio ahau he pūkaea noa iho ēnei mea. He mea nui ake te ngāwari. Ka tū ahau ki tērā, ka noho pūmau ake taku ngākau, ka kore e peia e te hiakai. Ka kite ahau i ngā mea katoa hei oha, ehara i te mea hei tāpiri i a ia anō.

He aha tāku mahi āpōpō?

I tēnei rā, kua oti i a au tētahi rārangi o ngā mea e hiakai nui ana ahau mōna. Ka tuhituhi ahau i aua mea, ā, ka huritao ahau mō ia mea: mēnā kāore i tēnei, ka pēhea taku oranga? Mēnā kāore he raruraru nui, kua kore ahau e hiakai mōna. Mā tēnei mahi, ka mōhio ake ahau he aha te mea nui mō tōrōu oranga.
