13. Whakamutunga
“Māori thought was centrally concerned with the human situation and human experience. In these thoughts and as a way of life, a balance was maintained between human beings and the environment. The closeness with nature, the dependency on it and the intimate and profound knowledge of things in nature led to a world view that recognised the sacredness of all forms of life” (Margaret Orbell)
