‘Te ao märama’ is a Mäori concept relating to wisdom and understanding. It derives from the myth in which Täne separated his Sky Father Ranginui and Earth Mother Papatuänuku to create ‘te ao märama’ or the world of light. This allowed Täne and his brothers to grow and better understand the world around them.
