The Uppermost Heaven

Te Toi-o-ngaa-rangi, the uppermost or first heaven. The realm at the core of a spiritual identity. The realm solely for Iộ Taketake, the foundation; Iộ Maatua-kore, the self-created; Iộ Te Waiora, the fountain of life. Ascending this realm denoting union with the Creator.  Te Toi-o-ngaa-rangi, the celestial realm at the zenith of Te Pộ.

The Spiritual Realms

As awareness became reality Rangi-tu-haha, the whole of the realms, materialized into the ether. The whole of the realms was manifest. The whole of the physical from the whole of the non-physical. The whole of the tangible from the whole of the intangible. The whole of the natural from the whole of the supernatural.  

The celestial enmeshing the terrestrial. As further branches fruited - the whole of the realms became twelve. The foundations towards an ultimate quest. Each realm replete with its own lores and law – towards an interior striving. The celestial realms stages in a spiritual excursion. The journey above continued from immediately below – although with exceptions.

A Singular Word

Te Whe, a reverberation invoked at the absolute moment of creation. A singular solitary directive encircling existence entirely. Te Whe, the seed word whose offshoots are embedded in Te Waananga, knowledge and wisdom. Te Whe disseminated by Te Whakaaro - propagation by invocation. Invocation by karakia sourced from Io-mata-puutahi, Io of the one command.
