I runga o Tūrangawaewae Marae i te 19 Akuhata, 2011 i te rā kawe mate o te koroneihana o Kīngi Tuheitia, i whakatakotohia e Professor Pou Temara te urupounamu ‘ko te hunga whakamomori me tangi me aha rānei?’ Ko taku whakapae, ko te whakaaro pea o roto o tēnei pātai, e aro ana ki te hunga whakamomori. Heoi, ko te aronga kē pea o te kaupapa, ko tēnei mea te tangihanga. He whakapono nō te ao Māori, ko te tangihanga, he whakarangatira i te tūpāpaku me ngā mahi i oti i a ia i te wā o te ora. Heoi, ko tāku e uaparetia ana, ko te kawenga matua o te tangihanga, ko te aroha o te tangata ki te tangata. Ko ngā kaupapa o te tangihanga, tuatahi he tuku i te wairua ki te wāhi ngaro. Tuarua, he huarahi e tīngia ai e te Māori ngā panonitanga o te mate. Tuatoru, he hui e whai oranga ai te hunga ora. Nō reira ko taku paremata ki te pakirēhua a Professor Pou Temara, ae me tangi ki te hunga whakamomori ka tika. Ko te aronga o tēnei pepa he wānanga i ngā tuhituhinga kua puta kē ki te ao mā te wetewete i ngā kōrero mō te tangihanga, te mate, te rerenga o te wairua, te whakahaeretanga o te tangihanga, te whakamomori, me ngā whakapono o iwi kē mō te whakamomori.
