Turei- Ra 16: He pono ka aru mai te pai me te atawhai i ahau i nga ra katoa o toku oranga: (Manaaki)

Ki te nuinga o tātau, he tikanga tātau e mahia ana mā ā mātou tikanga whakaaturanga whakapono, ahurea hoki hei manaaki i te oranga hou o te kōhungahunga.  I ngā wā katoa e kite ana ahau i tēnei hei huarahi mō tētahi whānau me te hapori whakapono, he hapori iwi rānei, kia kaua e pōhiri noa i te wairua hou, engari kia whai i te āhua o te haepapa ki te ārahi, ki te tiaki, ki te whāngai i taua wairua mai i te whānautanga ki tō rātou tauwhiro ki te ao o te rangi.  He hurihanga i ia rā, i ia rā o ngā wheako whenua o taua wairua.  I ngā wā katoa ka whiwhi ahau i te ngāwari me te haumarutanga i roto i tōku “wairua” ina mōhio ahau kua puta tēnei tikanga manaaki i te kōhungahunga i roto i te oranga o te tamaiti. 

He tikanga hoki tēnei ki te whakawhetai ki te “Wairua Nui”, ki ngā mea rānei e hāngai ana ki ngā whakapono o taua whānau, mō te koha o te oranga o taua tamaiti.  He mea nui te whakamoemiti mo te manaaki o te ora i roto i to tātau whanaungatanga ki taua tamaiti.  Ka tautuhi i te wāhanga mō ngā whanaungatanga o taua tamaiti me tō rātou wāriu whaiaro e kitea ana i roto i tō rātou manaaki i a ia anō. Ko ta tatou moemoea tetahi ki tetahi, ko te tikanga kia ora te katoa i te wheako ora manaaki o te pai, te aroha, te aroha, te aroha, me te rangimarie.  Ko ēnei manaakitanga he huānga o to tātau mana whānautanga.  He koha te haere i roto i te oranga me te rongo i ngā huarahi maha me ngā wā i manaakitia ai koe. 

I a tātau e tamariki ana, e mahi pono ana tātau, kāore i te mōhio he aha, he aha rānei te tikanga, i raro i te parenga o ngā manaakitanga e taupoki ana i tō tātou oranga.  E whakapono ana ahau ki te tautohu ngā mātua, ngā mema o te whānau, me te hapori takatāpui e tauwhiti ana ki tētahi tamaiti, ki ngā manaakitanga i roto i tō rātou ake oranga, me te whakaatu i te pānga o aua manaakitanga ki ō rātou oranga, kei te whakatutuki mātou i tā mātou kawenga ki a rātou. 

“Tatauria ō manaakitanga, whakaingoatia takitahi. Tatauria ō manaakitanga, tirohia ngā mahi a te “Wairua Nui”.  Tatauria ō manaakitanga, whakaingoatia takitahi. Tatauria ō manaakitanga maha, tirohia te manaakitanga o tō oranga.”
