Summary:
"Te Kooti Te Turuki Rikirangi stands as a towering figure of his time - a storm in dark days, a staff for those adrift. A warrior in the house of Tūmatauenga, yet to the Ringat Church, a prophet - one who carried the dreams, hopes and spirit of the iwi through years of loss: land, life and sovereignty. In his right hand, the gun of battle; in his left, the word of God. Te Kooti spread these words across the marae of the motu; a messenger, a guide, a beacon of understanding for generations to come. His words speak to the heart, to the spirit, to the land. This book, by Tā Pou Temara - a member of the Māori Queen's Council of Twelve, a professor, and a tohunga of Māori language and thought - offers a deep exploration in te reo Māori of Te Kooti's prophetic messages: his visions, teachings and songs. Through these pages, Tā Pou asks: have Te Kooti's words been fulfilled? Do they still live today? Tā Pou's insights, grounded in the ancestral knowledge of Te Whanau-a-Apanui, Te Arawa and Ngai Tuhoe, illuminate the essence of the word, the spirit of belief and the sacredness of tradition. This book is a rich source of knowledge for those seeking understanding of the Ringatū faith, Māori prophecy, the Māori language and the history of the land - from the heart of the marae, from the wisdom of ancestors, from the shadows to the light"--Publisher information.
