I reach to you <br /> to reach to the heart of Alii King Lunalilo. I was guided by Akua to do so. Yours is one <br /> of three great trusts left by our Alii for the betterment of'Oiwi, the first people of the <br /> Pacific and Hawai'i. The materials enclosed in the pages of documents mailed to you <br /> tell a story. We have had a miracle at Kamakahonu. In 2010, I began hearing from the <br /> Ancestors of'Oiwi including our Great Kings and Queens. I reached to tell the members <br /> of the Hawaii State Legislature in a letter dated 3/3/21. I wrote letters to the Governor, <br /> the Mayors and county councils of every island to share this miraculous news. <br /> When my father created the Temple Drum for Ahu'ena Heiau, the Temple he loved and <br /> restored, I had a calling to travel to all schools and announce by voice and flyer the <br /> excitement that came from the first restoration of the ancient Temple and First Capital <br /> of Hawai'i. I carried this out as I shared how Pahuali'ikoaoka'awaloa is the first Temple <br /> Drum to be named in association with the first restored temple in Hawai'i, the Pacific <br /> and the world. Alii Lanakilakeikiahialii Na'ope guided the naming process. He told me <br /> to pray and ask Akua. I soon met as I served as a docent at Hulihe'e Palace, Sarah <br /> Malina Kailikea of Nawiliwili Kaua'i, 87 years young, who taught us that the name of the <br /> Temple Drums are given in honor of the land they grew upon. They are called Pahuali'i, <br /> the drum of the chiefs, and so now all may honor Ka'awaloa uka where the log came <br /> from. The life to Pahuali'ikoaoka'awaloa came by a naming ceremony conducted at <br /> Kamakahonu at the dawn of the millennium, 2000, by the Drum Maker, Dr. Kalena <br /> Silva of Ka Haka 'Ula o Ke'elikolani, myself and Coline Aiu Kumu Hula of Halau o <br /> Kumukahi and Halau Hula o Maiki, respectively. <br />
