  Puke Ariki - Taranaki Stories - Te Ua Haumene - Story of a Religion
Te Ua was the leader of the first organised expression of an independent Māori Christianity, a religion born from a vision and mistrust of missionaries.
Te Ua spoke in favour of showing compassion to the castaways and, in the end, the passengers and crew were hosted by Māori and delivered safely to New Plymouth.
Te Ua was made custodian of the heads, which he believed were a symbol of the conquest of evil by righteousness.

 DNZB / BIOGRAPHY
Te Ua was probably married and had at least one son.
In 1861 and 1862 Te Ua was a leader of a runanga at Matakaha which administered local government and maintained the integrity of the aukati, the boundary of land under the mana of the King.
Te Ua was at first considered mad by his relations as well as by Pakeha observers, but he saw the period after his vision as the trial of faith which validated his calling.

 TheCyberCommunity Publishing
During this period the cornerstones of Te Ua's religious teaching were set, [a:] The right of Maori to defend the boundaries of their territory, [b:] A belief in national salvation of the Maori (from the white settlers) and [c:] A deep suspicion that the missionaries were aiding and abetting the loss of Maori Land.
Te Ua was caught between a compassionate feeling for the passengers and the Kingitanga law which required that trespassers be put to death.
Te Ua's concerns were the [1] Alienation of tribal lands, [2] The destruction of the Maori way of life, including the very successful Maori capitalistic ventures of the 1820's and 30's which the Pakeha first rendered non-viable and then stole from the Maori.

 Flags used during the New Zealand Wars - Ministry for Culture and Heritage
Te Ua Haumene, the leader of the Pai Marire movement, also had his own personal flag, which featured the word 'Kenana' (Canaan) to show that he identified with the Jews.
Te Kooti's use of flags in the New Zealand Wars is also notable, with the designs of each flag being altered as his success or failure dictated.
Te Wepu was decorated with a crescent moon, a cross, a six-pointed star, a mountain representing New Zealand and a bleeding heart, thought to symbolise the sufferings of the Maori people.

Te Ua had been influenced by Christian missionaries after being captured by Waikato Maori in 1826 and this would shape aspects of Pai Marire.
Te Ua died in 1866, and Titokowaru (Ngati Ruanui) and Te Whiti o Rongomai (Ngati Te Whiti) were seen as his likely successors.
Te Kooti, founder of the Ringatu faith, was also influenced by Pai Marire, and in 1875 Tawhiao adapted Pai Marire to his own beliefs with Tariao (morning star) becoming the faith of the King movement.

Te Kahu-pukoro told Cowan that the chant above had been employed by the party of Taranaki Maori who attacked the redoubt at Te Morere, otherwise known as Sentry Hill, just south of Waitara and east of New Plymouth, on the morning of 30th April 1864: '[W]e all formed a ring round the niu.
However, Te Kahu-pukoro, who was only twelve years old at the time and was shot twice in the assault, makes it clear that the Pai Marire leader, Hepanaia wanted to make a sudden attack from the rear but was overruled by a number of rangatira (chiefs).
Te Kahu-pukoro's grandfather, Tamati Hone, father of Tiopira and Hapeta, composed a waiata tangi (song of lament), "E hiko e te uira i tai raa," for his sons (and for Kiingi Paarengarenga), which is still sung today.

The oldest, Pai Marire, was promulgated by Te Ua Haumene of Taranaki in 1862, but it was not until two years later that zealous missionaries spread versions of the faith throughout the central part of the North Island.
In 1868, after the military defeat and moral decline of Pai Marire, Te Whiti O Rongomai and his brother-in-law Tohu Kakahi proclaimed a new faith of love and peace at a meeting in Parihaka, the village at the foot of Mount Egmont.
Of the 5,275 Ringatus, fully 3,871 (73%) are found in the Whakatane County and Borough and in the adjacent Counties of Opotiki, Waikohu, Cook and Wairoa.

The government was too strong for the uprising and by 1866 the opposition was brought to a close with the capture of their leader Te Ua Haumene and other surviving rebels like Te Kooti who were then transported to the Chatham Islands.
Te Kooti's brother died of an illness at an early age and by the mid 19th century war was the order of the day.
Te Kooti was not content to wait upon a pardon and led an escape from the island aboard the captured Rifleman supply ship with some 200 other prisoners.

Monuments to Te Whiti and to Te Ua: Prophets, 1972
During the 1860s, Te Whiti had established a community at Parihaka on the principle of passive resistance in opposition to colonial subjugation and the threat of burgeoning settler encroachment upon tribal lands.
With a view to Maori self-determination, Te Whiti encouraged his converts to resist the colonial government’s policies of land confiscation through peaceful and non-aggressive means.

Te Ua Haumene compared the suffering of the Israelites under the Egyptians to that of the Māori, suffering under the yoke of the Europeans.
According to Te Ua Haumene's vision, the mission of the Hauhaus was to drive the "pakeha" (european) from New Zealand, and to recover the ancestral land of the Māori.
Although Te Ua Haumene's movement only lasted a few years, he was a preacher of peace, and tried to convince his fellowmen to cease fighting.

Kereopa was one of the first disciples of Te Ua Haumene, the founder of Pai Marire (Good and Peaceful), an indigenous religious movement with Old Testament roots.
Te Kooti – once a man with hopes of becoming an Anglican lay preacher – was later accused of being a spy, and also railroaded into exile in the Chathams.

Pai Marire, founded by the Maori prophet Te Ua Haumene, was initially deeply committed to peace.
But Te Ua also preached Maori unity, independence and a holding of the land, which sparked a new Maori resistance.
In April 1864 a strong force of imperial and colonial troops that had been sent out to burn crops and abandoned villages south of New Plymouth was attacked by a group of Pai Marire followers, resulting in the deaths of 7 men and 12 wounded.

Their efforts were soon supplemented by another religiously inspired guerrilla leader, Te Kooti.

But the social climate was changing, with more and more settlers arriving and putting pressure on Mt to stem to the tide, an anti-land selling movement developed in South Taranaki, and Te Ua began to associate closely with many of its leaders," Ms Sturmey writes.
The second reason for the belief in the Hauhau faith's aggressive tactics can be blamed on one of Te Ua's "disciples"nbsp,- Kereopa Te Rau, from Te Arawa near Rotorua.
"Te Ua's new religion was condemned as a fanatical, cruel and bloodthirsty cult and the term 'Hau Hau' was adopted as a term to describe any Mment," Sturmey says.

Hauhauism was the name given to the beliefs of the Paimarire Churchas revealed to, and annunciated by, its founder and prophet, Te Ua Haumene.
The sect was served by a special priesthood, Te Ua being High Priest and having five disciples.
Te KootiRikirangi used it as a basis upon which to erect his more stable Ringatu faith; while Ratana later took over many of Te Ua's theocratic ideas, as well as a portion of the Niu ceremonial, which had been incorporated in his modern movement.

This is, however, an over-simplification, as Te Ua Haumene based his beliefs not merely on the Old Testament, injecting also both Christian gospel and his own unique cultural values.
Pai Marire was born out of a vision in which the prophet Te Ua was visited by the Archangel Gabriel, amongst others, including perhaps the Archangel Michael.
Like Te Ua, Te Kooti believed that the Maori were descendents of the Lost Tribes of Israel, and his visions were thus fairly rapidly accepted by the Pai Marire believers Te Kooti was imprisoned with.
