What does Mahalo mean?

**Tabbitha** · 16th January 2007, 09:21 AM

Aloha & Mahalo

If you learn just two words in Hawaiian, learn these.
They are two of the most important words in the Hawaiian language, representing paramount Hawaiian values.

In Hawaiian thinking, words have mana [pronounced: mah' nah], [meaning spiritual or divine power],
and aloha and mahalo are among the most sacred and powerful.

Say them often as they can be life-transforming and -enhancing.
Be careful to use them ONLY if you truly feel mahalo or aloha within.
Do not exploit these words for personal gain, and neither cheapen,
nor trivialize their use by verbalizing them carelessly or without sincerity.

Aloha and mahalo are ineffable, indescribable,
and undefinable with words alone; to be understood, they must be experienced.

Deeper meaning and sacredness is hinted at by
the root words of these words. Linguists differ in their
opinions as to the exact meanings and origins, but this is
what was told to me by my kupuna (elder):

On a spiritual level, aloha is an invocation of the Divine
and mahalo is a Divine blessing. Both are acknowledgments
of the Divinity that dwells within and without.
