Review 4 Whakapapa and Oral traditions. You have got it completely wrong

You need to pull your head in mate, you have got the whole basis to oral tradition wrong! Your perception of Mana is wrong! You need to remove 80% of this section because your ideology perspective of Mana and Oral Traditions are massively incorrect. When you assimilate Maori to "mid-evil European" attitude, its's a complete contradiction to mana tikanga and saying "people wanted to show they were related to a king". Thats has nothing to do with gaining mana.....which can only be given to you, if you seek it without battle, it is not mana. Mana can only be gifted to one, by the tribe or chief, upon acts warranted, lineage, marriage, or battle. Once you try to grasp or take it without validation of any of the above it reverses the mana. So dont ever assume or try to give your Western interpretation of it. You have to fully understand the depths of tikanga to ever come close to understanding the workings of such tapu subjects.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
