LIFE HEREAFTER

By W Turiea Puha, Uawa.

Chapter II – ‘I’ without end.

We have seen in Chapter I that the commander of a person’s body and brain is the living spirit sent by God to rule the person, and it is that which is called in Chapter I, ‘I’. I wish to lay before the readers of these words some ideas which will show them the truth of such sayings as “The ‘I’ has no ending.”

LIFE HEREAFTER.

By W Tureia Puha, Uawa.

Chapter 1 - ‘I’.

It is right and valid that we should seek out and discuss and be concerned about the nature of our life hereafter. Many of us, Maori and also Pakeha, are not eager to think about this matter. Therefore I had the idea of teaching and explaining this great matter so as to stir up our hearts to look ahead.

MAORI COUNCILS.

Parliament has passed an amendment to the Maori Council Act 1900 that affects Maori Councils. It provides that all present members are to stand down. The Government is henceforth to choose the members for each Maori Council with one representing the Government and seven Maori. This will appear in the Gazette and you will find further explanations there.
