Hau mai, rarau mai — welcome.

Te Whare Kokorangi Ō Kupe-Ariki welcomes those who feel called to walk a pathway of lived celestial knowledge grounded in whakapapa, direct experience, environmental relationship, celestial understanding, practical wisdom, service to people, and inherent relationship with IO.

This Kura is founded upon the understanding that some of the greatest knowledge systems are not only learned through books or institutions, but through lived experience carried across whenua, moana, stars, people, ceremony, responsibility, hardship, observation, and time itself.

This is not a pathway of instant gratification, external validation, or transactional attainment. It is a living pathway requiring discipline, humility, commitment, observation, participation, adaptability, and relational responsibility.

Tomokanga - Invitation remains open throughout the year. Ngā Whare Wānanga (houses) remain open for those who are genuinely prepared to walk the pathway with integrity, responsibility, and openness to lived learning.

Learning may take place through:

kōrero,
travel,
wānanga,
research,
observation,
practical lived experiences,
celestial navigation,
environmental relationship,
ceremonial participation,
community engagement,
Zoom,
MSN,
café catch ups,
and through living environments with our people and communities.

Current learning locations include:

Northland,
Auckland,
Christchurch,
and Tahiti.

We also intend to extend our learning locations and relationships throughout:

Rarotonga,

Hawai‘i,

Rapa Nui,

Japan,

Tibet,

Africa,

and many other places throughout the world over time.

There is no actual financial cost for the learning itself.

I was raised by Tohunga who gave of themselves freely to their whānau and communities for over 50 years. For me this is true service. They recieved koha or donations but never asked for it. They urged me to follow the same Tikanga, which I will.

Participants must still be able to:

-transport themselves to learning locations,

-cover their own travel,

-provide their own food to share,

-and contribute toward rental or boarding arrangements where required within our communities.

There are no student loans, reimbursements, or externally funded dependency systems attached to this pathway.

Te Whare Kokorangi Ō Kupe-Ariki is grounded in the understanding that lived knowledge is one of the greatest teachers available to humanity. Some lessons are learned through books, while others are learned through oceans, mountains, stars, people, ceremony, struggle, endurance, service, and direct participation within life itself.

This pathway is grounded in:

-Te Reo me ōna tikanga,

-lived experience,

-environmental relationship,

-celestial understanding,

-research,

-travel,

-observation,

-practical attainment,

-ceremony,

-service to people,

-and the quantum navigation of the Multi-Dimensional IO-Verse.

We are not here to make money.

We are here to restore living pathways of Inherent Mauri IO knowledge systems and lived transmission once more. Elements of the ancient Whare Wānanga have been mouded for our times. The Whare Wānanga are open, looking for 13 IO-Pia.
