Today, writing about my tryst with the mighty Tane Mahuta, one of the world's oldest and tallest trees in the Waipoua forest in New Zealand!
Love this tale about how Tane Mahuta (God of the Forest) lay on his back and dug his shoulders deep into his mother's (Mother Earth) body, and pushed against his father (Father Sky) with all the strength and attempted to let light into the world.
While standing beneath Tane, you feel incredibly moved! 😇 People stand beneath this tree for hours, with their hands clasped in prayer 🙏
