I never knew that my native Māori language didn't, until now, have its own word for "autism". I guess we previously either transliterated the English word (e.g., ōtihumu) or just used English outright.

But, now in 2017 we have one: "takiwātanga". According to the person who came up with the word, it comes from the idea of "tōku/tōna anō takiwā" – referring to a person developing in "my/their own time and space" (and thus in my/their own way).

Good to know.


Really interesting. I like the word and its origins.

I'm wearing a wet T-shirt that I washed by hand an hour and a half ago. I'm trying to save my money on air conditioning.

You are here to enable the divine purpose of the universe to unfold. That is how important you are!

To let go of judgment does not mean that you don’t see what they do. It means that you recognize their behavior as a form of conditioning, and you see it and accept it as that. You don’t construct an identity out of it for that person.
That liberates you as well as the other person from identification with conditioning, with form, with mind.

What a liberation to realize that the "voice in my head" is not who I am. Who am I then? The one who sees that.

Only by awakening can you know the true meaning of that word.

When you don't cover up the world with words and labels, a sense of the miraculous returns to your life.

You do not become good by trying to be good, but by finding the goodness that is already within you, and allowing that goodness to emerge.

All the things that truly matter - beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace - arise from beyond the mind.

We could say that the totality, life wants the sapling to become a tree, but the sapling doesn't see itself as separate from life and so wants nothing for itself. It is one with what life wants. That's why it isn't worried or stressed. And, if it has to die prematurely, it dies with ease.....

When you accept everything for what it is without labels you are outside of your ego.

Quotations from Eckhart Tolle

At first I thought seaweed's avatar was a girl with a unibrow, but now I see it's a girl with narrowed eyebrows and glasses. :lol:
