enter the templeThe Mana



Some times you end up at a mystic place, and you realise that, its where you started.  This place fixed me and then, I helped to fix it. The shark (Ikahoea) is carved swimming, on the ceiling. It's surreal, like standing on the ocean floor looking at a shark above you. The house is different now.  Its been moved afew meters and trees have grown. 
This is the house of Kaipoho from Rongowhakaata.  Carved by master Raharuhi Rukupo.  Some of the poupou are carved with jade (pounamu) stone. This house is the younger brother of the famous house Te_Hau_ki_Turanga  But this house lives up to its name, Te Mana.
