High up in the Kaiholena Mountains, Mana’o blows his Pu (conch shell) in the 4 sacred directions, announcing to his Menehune Ohana (family) that he is ready to tell another one of his exciting stories to them. As the powerful sound of Mana’o’s conch shell echoes across the 'Aina (land), the Menehunes come running to the story place in the ferns to hear Mana’o’s new tale.

Mana’o tells stories about the Menehune Ohana, the Hawaiian animals, the forest, the ocean, and the stars in the Universe. The Menehunes listen to Mana’o’s story in wonder, sometimes laughing, sometimes crying, and always full of excitement.

Mana’o’s stories are wonderful!

Mana’o uses his words to weave the story into being. He knows that words and thoughts have tremendous power to shape reality, changing the past, present, and future.

Mana’o and his sister Pele worship the Akuas (spirits) of the sacred Ohia Forest.

The conch shell was Kuku’s (grandfather’s) gift of Aloha (love) to his Mo’opuna Kane (grandson). Mana’o always carries his conch shell, even when he goes to sleep. The Pu attracts good luck and the courage to manifest dreams.

Mana’o’s Tutu (grandmother) sewed his lava lava (wraparound) out of turquoise cotton with a Honu (turtle) design.

The Honu is Mana’o’s Aumakua (Guardian Spirit). The Honu’s wisdom embraces Mana’o and guides him on his quest

Tutu lovingly wove Mana’o's green feather neck, wrist and ankle leis to invoke divine blessings.
