The Great Hawaiian Protector
Our monks enjoy a blessing from a Hawaiian Aumakua, an ancestral guardian.
To the Hawaiians the owl is a protector and guide, held as sacred. This sentiment is encapsulated in the saying "A no lani, a no honua" meaning "Belonging to heaven and earth."

This is a gift indeed. Where I live, in the forest, we hear the songs of several different kinds of owls. A blessing!
Thank you.
