This CD and booklet will take you on a journey through Hawaiian history, the good times and the bad, but through it all, Ke Akua was, and is, always here for us. Aloha Ke Akua! 1. OLI KAHIKOLU by Moses Kahoÿokele Crabbe EIA MÄKOU KA POÿE O KA HONUA LÄ Ë Here we are the people of the land E HÄLIU MAI KO MÄKOU LEO ALOHA LÄ Ë Hearken to our loving voices ÿAUHEA WALE ANA ÿOE E KA MAKUA LANI, E IEHOWA, We call to you, Heavenly Father, Jehovah, E KA HAKU O KA LANI E IESÜ KRISTO Our Heavenly Lord, Jesus Christ, E KA ÿUHANE HEMOLELE The Holy Spirit HE MAI, HE MAI, HE MAI Come, come, come E HÄLIU MAI KO MÄKOU LEO ALOHA LÄ Ë Heed our loving voices In the beginning, when the Hawaiian people first arrived in these beautiful islands, they worshipped the One True God, the Creator, the One they called, ÿIo or ÿIa. This was the ancient sacred name of the Creator in Polynesia from Aotearoa (New Zealand) in the far south, to Hawaiÿi in the far north. Among the many names he was called by across Polynesia were Iomatuakore (ÿIo the self existent One – Aotearoa), Ihoiho (ÿIo the center of all things - Tahiti), Iotaketake (ÿIo the Creator – Aotearoa), Iotewaiora (ÿIo the source of life – Aotearoa), ÿIolani (ÿIo the Heavenly One – Hawaiÿi), Iomatawai (ÿIo the God of mercy - Aotearoa), Kihotumu (ÿIo the teacher of all things - Tuamotus) and ÿIaonalaninuiamamao (ÿIa of the great and distant heavens – Hawaiÿi). In the Ka Baibala Hemolele (the Bible), some symbols of God were the eagle, the lion and the lamb. Symbols of ÿIo, the Creator, were the hawk and the owl. The name of the Hawaiian hawk is also ÿIo, but to those who knew the kaona, the hidden meaning, he was a symbol of the Creator. He was the highest flying and most powerful bird in the islands. From high in the heavens, “he could see all.” The owl could see at night and turn to see everywhere, “he was all-seeing.” Another symbol of ÿIo was the rainbow.

Rom. 1:20 tells us that all people knew the Creator, his eternal power, and divine nature by observing his creation around them. It says the Creator made his presence so clear that all people were without excuse to know him. The ancient Hawaiians knew creation very well because they spent all of their time in God’s creation. They knew places by the subtle differences in the rain, wind, land or seas and were masters at using natural metaphors to express themselves in poetry, chant and song. The ancient Hawaiians knew that to have lökahi (peace, unity and harmony) in our lives and in our society, we must aloha (have unconditional love) and be pono (be right in spirit, soul, body and actions) with Ke Akua (God, ÿIo), the ÿäina (the land/creation), and our fellow man. The küpuna (elders) knew that we must also aloha everyone, not just some, otherwise, we can never achieve lökahi in our lives. This, of course, does not mean that we have to like what certain people do. We can hate and work to correct actions that are not pono, but still aloha the person. We must also be willing to have hoÿoponopono (the Hawaiian process of reconciliation) with those we are not pono with. This takes great haÿahaÿa (humility) for we must be willing to admit when we are wrong and to forgive those who have hurt us. Queen Liliÿuokalani understood this principle when she taught that, “No one is free from their own sins until they have forgiven those who have sinned against them.” She knew that lökahi was not possible without forgiveness and history shows that she practiced what she preached, even under the most difficult trials of her Christian faith. Page 2 of 15 2004 © Aloha Ke Akua Ministries Website: www.alohakeakua.org – Email: [email protected] This is the lökahi triangle, Ke Akua must be at the top center of the triangle of our lives, the ÿäina on one bottom corner and people at the other. The triangle is the strongest physical structure, but only if it has all three sides. Lökahi is empowered and sustained by God’s Aloha. As an indigenous Norwegian Sammi man said, “How can one not know the Creator’s love in the magnificent beauty of Hawaiÿi!” God’s aloha, surrounds and enfolds Hawaiÿi and its people! Aloha Ke Akua! 3. Aloha Is (For Uncle Mo) Lyrics: Pilahi Paki/music: Jay Larrin Lead vocals, ÿukulele: Kahu Mahealani Keale Although every society has its problems, the evidence shows that the Hawaiian people remembered the One Supreme God and worshiped him in relative peace until the priest Päÿao came from Tahiti. Fornander writes of this early period that “. the kapus were few and the ceremonials easy; that human sacrifices were not practised, and cannibalism unknown; and that government was more of a patriarchal than of a regal nature.” Only the good kapu (taboos) that preserved the land and its resources were in place. What most people today regard as the religious system of the Hawaiian people was not their true religion — it was a foreign religion introduced by the invader Päÿao. Hawaiian traditions say that Päÿao, his kahuna (priests), aliÿi (chiefs) and warriors arrived in Hawaiÿi around 1300 A.D. He killed many priests of ÿIo and others fled on canoes, thus, much of the knowledge of ÿIo was lost. The remaining priests of ÿIo kept their knowledge in secret on pain of death. Therefore, knowledge of ÿIo was passed down to one trustworthy child, called the pono one, in each generation. Because the danger of speaking the name of ÿIo is past, it is no longer necessary to hide it. Although the name of the all-powerful Creator should only be spoken with great reverence and be kept sacred, it should not be kept secret from our people who so desperately need his wisdom in this hour. In Ancient Hawaiÿi, there were good chiefs who measured their wealth by how much they could give away. However, under the religious system of Päÿao, an aliÿi could take anything he wanted from a commoner: his food, belongings, children, wife or his life. It is estimated that two-thirds of what the common people produced was taken by aliÿi and kahuna. When the high chiefess, Kapiÿolani, was a young girl, she ate a banana. It was kapu for women to eat bananas, coconuts, pork and other things. Because she was a high aliÿi, she was not put to death. Instead, the kahuna took her favorite servant, a child named Mau, and strangled him on the altar of the heiau. Many years later, after becoming a Christian, Kapiÿolani asked this same kahuna why he strangled Mau. The kahuna replied, “Those were dark days, though we priests knew better all the time. It was power we sought over the minds of the people, to influence and control them.” Kapiÿolani hid her face in her hands and wept. The people cried out to their Creator for relief and He heard them. Many prophecies were given about the return of the true God of the Hawaiian people. Page 3 of 15 2004 © Aloha Ke Akua Ministries Website: www.alohakeakua.org – Email: [email protected] At the close of a Makahiki ceremony marking the time of Lono, the Hawaiian god of Peace, a prophecy was given that Lono would return in a small black box and the people would not know him or recognize the language he spoke. Another prophecy given by the prophet, Kalaikuahulu, said that a communication would be made from Heaven, the residence of Ke Akua Maoli, the True God. This communication would be entirely different from anything they had known. The prophecy also said that the kapu of the country would be overthrown. A generation later, the prophet Kapihe, announced that, “The islands will be united, the kapu of the gods will be brought low, and those of the earth (the common people) will be raised up.” King Kamehameha the Great unified the islands, fulfilling the first part of the prophecies. On October 3, 1819, six months after the death of Kamehameha, his two wives, Kaÿahumanu and Keÿöpüolani, and the new king, Liholiho (Kamehameha II), deliberately and publicly broke a kapu.

  • Statement of JOHN DE FRIES Hawai'i Tourism Authority Before the SENATE COMMITTEE on ENERGY, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, and TOURISM
    Statement of JOHN DE FRIES Hawai‘i Tourism Authority before the SENATE COMMITTEE ON ENERGY, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, AND TOURISM Monday, February 8, 2021 3:00 PM State Capitol, Conference Room #224 In consideration of SENATE BILL NO. 916 RELATING TO TAXATION Chair Wakai, Vice Chair Misalucha, and members of the Committee on Energy, Economic Development, and Tourism: the Hawai‘i Tourism Authority (HTA) supports Senate Bill 916, which specifies that the $1,000,000 of Transient Accommodations Tax revenues currently allocated to operate a Hawaiian center and the Museum of Hawaiian Music and Dance may also be used to plan, design, and construct these facilities at an unspecified location. SB 916 is needed as we move forward to create the new Museum of Hawaiian Music and Dance. This measure will allow the funds to be utilized both for operations and development of the center. Currently, the law does not provide clear guidance as to how the funds may be utilized. The term “operations,” as found in the current statute, appears to restrict the use of the funds to the day-to- day activities of a center. Since this will be a new endeavor, we believe that allowing the funds to also be used for the planning, design, and construction will encourage more interest as we move forward in the Request for Proposal (RFP) process. It is for these reasons that HTA supports SB 916. We appreciate this opportunity to provide testimony.

  • Testimony of Mufi Hannemann President & CEO Hawai'i Lodging & Tourism Association House Committee on Veteran, Military
    HAWAl‘l LODGING & TOURISM ASSOCIATION Testimony of Mufi Hannemann President & CEO Hawai‘i Lodging & Tourism Association House Committee on Veteran, Military, & International Affairs, & Culture and the Arts House Concurrent Resolution 70 Requesting the United States Postal Service to issue a commemorative postage stamp in honor of Alfred Apaka. Aloha Chair Ito, Vice Chair Tokioka and members of the committee, on behalf of the Hawai‘i Lodging & Tourism Association and its 700-plus members we offer strong support for HCR 70 which would request of the US Postal Service to issue a commemorative postage stamp in honor of Alfred Apaka, legendary Hawaiian entertainer and showman. As a state we pride ourselves on our Native Hawaiian culture and our Aloha spirit, two very unique features that help set us apart from the rest of the world. One very important aspect of our culture is and has been our islands’ music, a genre that has helped set the stage for Hawai‘i as a global destination. We have seen the pioneers of our state’s music from Don Ho to Israel Kamakawiwo'ole and others who have made a name for themselves locally, nationally, and internationally. But before these gentlemen hit the scene there was another musical legend, Alfred Apaka, the pioneer who first introduced the world to Hawai‘i’s music. Alfred Apaka, frequently known as the Golden Voice of Hawai‘i, has created a legacy for himself as he headlined venues such as the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, the Moana Surfrider, Don at the Beachcomber, and Kaiser’s Hawaiian Village where he entertained thousands of visitors and locals alike.

  • Mormon Influences on the Waikiki Entertainment Scene
    Mormon Influences on the Waikīkī Entertainment Scene by Ishmael W. Stagner, II Before we can discuss the influence of Mormon Hawaiians on the Waikīkī music scene, we need to understand a few things about the development of Hawaiian music and its relationship to things developing in Waikīkī. It is normally thought that the apex of Hawaiian entertaining is being able to entertain on a steady basis in a Waikīkī showroom, or venue. However, this has not always been the case, especially as this relates to the Waikīkī experience. In fact, we need to go back only to the post World War II period to see that entertaining in Waikīkī, especially on a steady basis, was both rare and limited to a very few selected entertainers, most of whom, surprisingly, were not Hawaiian. There were a number of reasons for this, but the main reason for the scarcity of Hawaiian, or Polynesian entertainers in Waikīkī in any great number, goes back to the history of Waikīkī itself. At the turn of the 20th century, Waikīkī was still mostly a swamp, filled with taro patches, rice paddies and fish ponds. We have only to look at the pictures of Ray Jerome Baker, the great photographer of early 20th century Honolulu, to see that Waikīkī was, first and foremost, a bread basket area whose lowlands were the delta areas for the run-off waters of Mānoa, Pauoa, and Pālolo streams. As such, Waikīkī fed much of what we call East Oahu, and rivaled the food production and water-storage capacities of better-known farming areas such as Kāne‘ohe, Kahalu‘u and Waiāhole.

  • Learning About Hawaiian Music…
    Ukulele UkuleleTonya.com • September 18, 2015 Learning about Hawaiian music… Many folks who are drawn to the ukulele may not be familiar with Hawaiian music. Perhaps they’ve heard “Tiny Bubbles” or “Aloha Oe,” but that may be the limit of their Hawaiian listening. Yet the ukulele’s heritage is island-based and so many wonderful songs utilizing ukuleles are Hawaiian that it’s a real loss when ukulele players aren’t familiar with at least some of the sounds of Hawaii. We tend to “like” the music we know best, so my goal in this short article is to get you listening to Hawaiian music more often so you can find songs and artists thatyou find yourself enjoying! Keep in mind that this is just a “bare bones” introduction to get you started—there are many sounds and styles of Hawaiian music, so if you don’t like the first ones you listen to, try others! Some Hawaiian music background: Hawaiian music reflects the many cultures of the immigrants to Hawaii as well as the native population. You’ll hear cowboy sounds from Mexican paniolos, Asian influences, Hawaiian chants, Western-style melodies/harmonies and Jamaican/reggae sounds. There’s even Hawaiian “rap/hip hop”—not my favorite, certainly, but you’ll hear it! You may be most familiar with tunes featuring a blend of English lyrics and perhaps some Hawaiian words in the “hapa haole” tunes; a lot of these became popular on the mainland during the 1930s. Think of “Sweet Leilani,” “Little Grass Shack” and “Lovely Hula Hands.” Popular performers of this style included Harry Owens and his Royal Hawaiian Hotel Orchestra, Johnny Noble’s Hawaiians and Alfred Apaka.

  • My Life in Music
    My Life in Music by James Mo’ikeha (Courtesy James Mo’ikeha) Introduction by Ishmael Stagner: This is Jimmy Mo’ikeha, and he is the only person that I can find that goes back to that generation of entertainers in Waikiki that worked in the 50’s and 60’s. Everyone else is either dead or “incapacitated” at this point. You can either ask him questions, or he can respond to what I’ve just said (in my paper). Aloha awakea (good afternoon), aloha kakou (greetings everyone). I just want to say a couple things. I appreciated Ish’s reference to the ancient hula being related to the Hawaiian martial arts, I think that’s why Tony Todaro wrote the song, “Keep your Eyes on the Hands!” (laughter) I want to acknowledge the presence of Elder Komatsu. In one of the notebooks that my dad left me, there’s a newspaper clipping in which it states that the Hawaii State legislature officially congratulated Adney Komatsu as the first Nisei (second generation Japanese-American ) to be called as a general authority of the LDS church, and its an article that I treasure very much. Elder Komatsu and I go back a long way. For many years I was working in Palau (aka Peleliu ) I was working in a hotel for an airlines and the church had just been established there and Elder Komatsu made one of his trips as a general authority, and there was a Sunday evening fireside and I was not able to attend for various reasons, and later upon returning to the hotel, elder Komatsu scolded me for not being there, but he was even more disappointed because my kitchen was closed! (laughter) and he had not eaten.
