@tikidub

I don't know if my last comment was posted??? So...

Why is someone having "a sniff" at 2.02 in this vid?

I love this sh*t but it aint relevant in terms of the clip.

@0414724 Hey its Tiki here. The drugs, shots of the city, and the spinning out effect represents my struggle and all the things that have been oppressing me. My journey to the ocean is me wanting to ask for some answers and help in dealing with these issues. This is when my gandmother apears and incourages me to listen to Tangaroa - god of the sea, and to not be scared of looking deeper into my ancestory. Perhaps wtach again & really look at the signs - also at the end - the words say it all

[BenjaminFranklin99]

From the divine heartbeat of Mother Earth and the ever-elusive constant of Sky Father

All descend and all ascend the natural world

The timeless current of tranquil stillness

The harmonic music of ones infinite ocean

Resilient are the vital influences of the universe

Stand liberated by the inner radiance

Be still be silent and all shall be revealed

@0414724 If you have read and followed Tiki's journey, you would know that 2.02 is very central to this man's journey... and I interpret this video as a cleansing, questioning, wanting to find your place, motivating yourself by connecting to the inner, the strengths of those that your spirit and thus journey is linked to - to move forward, a new man/woman. I love this video. i connect to the msg of needing regrowth and ahi kaa in this video. thank you for a great artistic piece Tiki!

Hey Tiki, it makes me proud of my kiwi heritage, not just maori, not just pakeha but all of us. A culture is not a thing to be owned. Its like the sea, and the rivers. It should be nurtured and held in trust for the next generation, but never owned. When we all appreciate and celebrate it, then our nation will have grown-up. - A white guy from Chch.

hey tiki, still one off my fav albums to date!!! :)

[Keahilelepali]

@tikidub Awesome...... this makes me feel closer to my roots. My family came from Waikato. My GG-grandfather was an Englishman & my GG-grandmother was a Maori lady from the Ranana/Randell family. I was born and raised in Hawaii.

Hey Tiki,

Much respect,Stephan
