Sinossi
Beautiful, sweet, stunning Mango is praised by everyone. Compared to the leaves, the tree branches, the lower mangoes, Mango is just...better...isn't it so? When confronted with the sacrifices of those around then, Mango learns a valuable lesson in humility.
Through descriptive prose, stunning imagery, and concrete-based metaphors, Le explores the concept of Ha'aha'a - the Hawaiian word for humility-as a foundational pillar of character and community, and supports cultural literacy.
What is Humility?
In modern contexts, humility is misunderstood as weakness or a lack of confidence. However, in the context of Ha'aha'a, humility is quiet presence and strength, based on a deep understanding about the nature of self.
* Interconnectedness: Helping the child to understand that they are a small but vital part of a much larger whole web of connections and relationships (family, ancestors, other beings).
* Abandoning self-enhancement: humility is the absence of the 'comparing mind.' When the child stops trying to be 'better than,' 'worse than,' or 'equal to' others, then the burden and anxiety of maintaining the self/ego is reduced.
This book provides an easy, accessible gateway to this deep philosophical understanding, that helps parents and teachers translate 'removing the self-focused self' for the child. Instead of focusing of ME, the book encourages children to look at "HOW was I part of the world today?" This shifts the focus from self-enhancement to collective well-being and harmony. By removing self-focused features of the self/me, child learns to be at ease in the world. They aren't constantly seeking to 'enhance' their self-image, and become less crushed by failure and less arrogant in success.
