Berita o ke kala

Pehea ʻoe e kala ai i kekahi ma ke ʻano o ke ola o kēlā me kēia lā? ʻAʻole maʻalahi loa. Loaʻa i kekahi mau moʻomeheu nā hana kala kala mau. No ka laʻana, hana ka Maasai ma Tanzania i kahi mea i kapa ʻia ʻo Osotua, ʻo ia ka mea e like me "ka berita". Ua haʻi ʻo Vincent Donovan i ke ʻano o ka hana ʻana o Osotua i kāna puke i kākau ʻia ʻo Christianity Rediscovered. Inā ua hana ʻia kekahi hewa i loko o ke kaiāulu ma waena o nā ʻohana, hiki ke loaʻa nā hopena pōʻino i ka lokahi o ka ʻohana nomadic holoʻokoʻa. Pilikia ka noho like ana.

Nolaila he mea nui ia e hui pū ʻia nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua i ka hoʻopaʻapaʻa. Mākaukau ke kaiāulu i kahi ʻina, kahi e pili ai nā ʻohana i nā mea kanu. ʻO ke kanaka pili a me ka lawehala pono ia e ʻae a ʻai i ka meaʻai i hoʻomākaukau ʻia. Ua kapa ʻia ka ʻai ʻo ka "meaʻai paia". ʻO ka manaʻo i lalo, ʻo ke kala ʻana ka pili me ka ʻai ʻana i ka meaʻai a hoʻomaka ka Osotua hou. Maikaʻi maʻalahi a maʻalahi.

Ua kaʻana like ʻoe i ka meaʻai kapu me kekahi āu i makemake ʻole ai a i ʻole e hana hewa i kekahi? Pehea ka ahaaina? Hiki anei ke hana i berita hou o ke kala ana ma waena o ʻoe a me kekahi āu i hana hewa ai a i hewa paha iā ʻoe i ko ʻolua ʻahaʻaina pū ʻana i ka ʻahaʻaina? No laila, inā e kaumaha ʻoe i kāu mōhai ma luna o ke kuahu, a ma laila e manaʻo ai ʻoe he mea kūʻē kou hoahānau iā ʻoe, e waiho i kāu mōhai ma laila i mua o ke kuahu, a e hele mua ʻoe i laila e hoʻolauleʻa me kou hoahānau, a laila e hele mai e kaumaha aku. kou makana » (Mat 5,23-24)

Pehea e pili pū ai i kahi hālāwai e kaʻana like i ka "meaʻai paia"? A iʻole ʻoe e lawe nei i kahi mau huhū mai kahi ahaʻaina a hiki i kēlā? Ua ʻōlelo aku ʻo Donovan ma ka hana maʻamau Maasai: "ʻO ka hoʻololi ʻana o ka meaʻai hemolele e hōʻike hou ana i ke kala ʻana." He aha ka hoʻomaikaʻi inā hiki iā mākou ke kākoʻo ikaika i ke kāhea ma ka ʻōlelo i luna, i ko mākou Haku a me ka Ola.
