Details

Pearls of wisdom contained in whakatauki (proverbs) have been passed down through generations as an intrinsic part of te ao Maori. Rich in metaphor and cultural history, these concise sayings offer reflection, insight, and guidance for personal growth.

Mauri Ora links whakatauki to key virtues admired across cultures and generations—wisdom, courage, compassion, integrity, self-mastery, and belief—drawing on the principles of positive psychology, the study of how to live a fulfilling life. Illustrated with evocative photographs, this book combines traditional Maori knowledge with contemporary thinking on personal effectiveness, leadership, and well-being.
