Ngā Kaiārauhi Wairua i te Ao Wairua: Te Rangahau a Michael Newton

He Kaiārauhi, He Pou Herenga: Te Tūnga o ngā Wairua Ārahi

I roto i ngā rangahau whakahirahira mō te wairua me te whānau anō, ko tā Michael Newton mahi he whakamārama i te ao o te wairua i waenganui i ngā whānau anō. Ko tētahi o ngā kitenga matua, ko te tino tūnga o ngā kaiārauhi wairua – he hunga mātua, he pouako, he hoa haere mā te wairua. E ai ki ngā kōrero i puta i raro i te moe whakaari, ehara ēnei kaiārauhi i te atua, engari he wairua kua tae kē ki te taumata mātauranga me te aroha tiketike rawa. Ko tā rātou mahi ko te ārahi, ko te whakamārama, ko te tautoko i te wairua e hoki ana ki tōna kāinga tūturu, te ao wairua.

Ko te Mahi a ngā Kaiārauhi i te ‘Wā o te Ora’

E kīia ana te wā i waenganui i ngā whānau anō ko te ‘Life Between Lives’. Koinei te wā ka whakatika, ka ako, ka whakaora te wairua i a ia e noho ana ki te ao wairua. Ko ngā kaiārauhi, he tohunga ki te āwhina i tēnei tukanga. Ka āwhina rātou i te wairua ki te wetewete i ngā pānga o te oranga kua hipa, ki te mātakitaki i ngā wāhi i whakatutukitanga ai, i ngā wāhi i rapu haere ai. Ka ārahina hoki te wairua ki te Kaunihera o ngā Kaumātua mō te whiriwhiringa whai ake. Mā te āwhina o ēnei kaiārauhi, ka mārama te wairua ki te take i haere mai ai ia ki te ao, ki ngā akoranga i whāia, me ngā whāinga mō te oranga e heke mai ana.

Te Mātauranga me te Aroha o ngā Pouako Wairua

E ai ki ngā kōrero a ngā tāngata i raro i te moe whakaari, he māori, he māhaki te āhua o ngā kaiārauhi wairua. Kāore he whakawā, he whakaiti rānei. Ko tō rātou reo, ahakoa kore kupu, ka rangona mā te hinengaro, he mea whakamārama, he mea whakamana. He māramatanga tō rātou e hāpai ana, kāore he ngoikore. Ko tō rātou mātauranga nui ko te mōhio ki te huarahi tika mō te whakawhanaketanga o ia wairua takitahi. Ka āwhina rātou ki te whiriwhiri i ngā pānga, i ngā whakamātautau, me ngā tūranga e tino hāngai ana ki te akoranga e hiahiatia ana e te wairua. Ka kōrero rātou mō te hiranga o te whānau wairua, o ngā hononga wairua e mau tonu ana.

Ngā Whakaahua a ngā Kiritaki: He Aha te Āhua?

He rerekē te whakaahua a ia kiritaki mō tōna ake kaiārauhi, engari he āhuatanga ōrite e puta ana. Ko te nuinga, kāore he āhua tinana mārama; he mārama noa, he korekore, he aura rānei e whakaputa ana i te aroha me te māramatanga. Ētahi ka kī he kanohi, he ahua rānei e whakamahara ana i tētahi tipuna, i tētahi pouako i te ao nei. Ko tētahi atu tohu nui, ko te ‘titiro’ – he mōhio noa te wairua ki te konei
