The Back Story:
Mahalo
[Pronounced: mah hah’ loh]
In Hawaiian thinking, words have “mana”
[pronounced: mah’ nah], meaning spiritual or divine power.
Mahalo is defined by the University of Hawai’i Press, Honolulu 1986 as: 1. Thanks, gratitude; to thank. 2. Admiration, praise, esteem, regards, respects; to admire, praise, appreciate.
Deeper meaning and sacredness is hinted at by the root words of this word:
Mahalo
[Ma = In] + [hâ = breath] + [alo = presence, front, face]
“(May you be) in (Divine) Breath.”
Say “Mahalo” often, as it can be life-transforming and enhancing,
if you truly feel grateful within.
