Aloha Shell, listen to the songs of love.

Aloha = love, o = of, ka I = the I. Ka I is the Hawaiian name of the Divine source, which is present everywhere and in all of us. Everything Aloha o ka I organizes, has its roots in the ancient spiritual traditions of the Hawaiian Islands. The native Hawaiians possessed knowledge and techniques to generate energy, ho'omana, for healing and to create a positive attitude. A life in deep respect for and cooperation with Nature. This drawing is respectfully dedicated to the Hawaiian people for keeping the ancient wisdom alive. This is remarkable, considering there was no written language until 1820 and the plundering of their land and culture. Amazing how much wisdom survived for those lucky ones among us who may reap what the ancient Hawaiians sowed. "Ha 'ina ia mai ana kapuana", let the story be told.
