American from the rural Ozarks here. This is one of the most beautiful, human moments I’ve ever witnessed. Thank you for giving us the honor of sharing in this moment with you.
This is absolutely beautiful. Affirming her identity and place amongst her people. This is the kind of event and practice that grounds a person, giving them strength and a sense of purpose
@@user-wh2jf2hf5q Это женщина, делающая татуировку на лице под названием «Моко Кауаэ». Эти татуировки являются символом благородства и престижа среди маори, коренного полинезийского народа Новой Зеландии. Каждый из них уникален, и его получение считается обрядом посвящения, поэтому оно оформлено как ритуал.
@@user-wh2jf2hf5qwell i don't know where or what nation you come from but women around the world from all different cultures used to have traditional tattoos in all different areas of their bodies. But you are correct - Maori are the only ones to have tattooed lips and chins today. The only other ones who had anything remotely close were the priestesses of Ancient Egypt. For Maori, it is called Moko and it is a genealogical and spiritual identity marking. Today it is mainly done by tattoo artists with tattoo ink supplies. Traditionally though the skin was carved out by bone chisels and filled with natural pigments from nature or the pigments were tapped into the skin using a tool made from sharks teeth like our kin in the Polynesian Islands. And they never perished from infection either. There was so much stigma attached to it that barely any Maori women adorned it. But Maori have a habit of changing peoples views by saying f#ck you - it's our faces, our bodies and just doing what we do to revive our cultural pride, customs and traditions til it becomes accepted practice. What europeans were trying to stamp out in order to turn us into them has failed. What is unique to Maori culture is also a huge part of New Zealand's tourism industry. Still got a whole bunch of pale, stale arseholes in NZ that like to stigmatize them ..... but they're dropping into the grave faster than their prejudices can rise again.
Witnessing the power of human connection, history, ancestry, love and community. So many of us have lost so much, bless this family for holding firm to what is their special connection to each other. We could all learn from this.
I live on the other side of the world and don't understand a word, but I've just witnessed something amazing and beautiful, and I'm touched. Thank you to the subject for sharing this. ❤️
Wow this is something unique, special and emotional. My family lost the culture of such moments of family and group but I'm so glad that Maori culture still goes on with their's Lot of respect joy and admiration for you all please keep share cause it's wonderful I'm all tears
I felt that in my heart ❤ I’m Anishinaabe, Indigenous to America. This feeling reminds me of our lodges and Sundance ❤ what a beautiful moment for her and her family. Embracing and earning who we are is such an indescribable experience. ❤ gorgeous Moko ❤️
Wow those feelings came through the screen!! I wish we still had that sense of community and family and traditions in the UK but we have long lost ours.
Its a very emotional event when a Wahine receives her moko kauae. The support from all her friends and family there in person, and also those who have passed on just make it really physically and spiritually emotional for all. Nothing to be sad about, those are tears of joy, love and admiration.
So lucky to have so many whanau to share this experience with. The love in the room is so overwhelming that I can only hope to have when it comes time to do mine. So beautiful to have waiata and haka during your journey and in your Marae with your tupuna all around you. I felt their aroha for you.
I am speechless!!... I don't even know what's going on, but the family support and love and care they provide for this is nothing but incredibly heart touching. Proof that the language of the heart goes beyond any language and cultural barriers.
This woman is getting a tattoo on her face called “Moko Kauae.” These tattoos are a symbol of nobility and prestige among the Māori, who were the indigenous Polynesian people of New Zealand. Each one is unique and obtaining it is considered a rite of passage, which is why it is performed as a ritual.
Wow this is so incredibly beautiful. If I’m not mistaken this looks like something that is very “coming of age”. A beautiful reminder that our chapters in life are sacred and worth honoring, cherishing, and celebrating.
I’ve never seen something so beautiful. I’m 23 years young I was born in America. I don’t know anything about they culture but I’m sitting here crying. This is amazing.
@@isabellarobinson6082i think a closer English word would be honour. The actual term is mana. Not so much status. The markings indicate who you are and where you come from.
@blubalub one of the great things of our culture is that many things are dependent on your own interpretation! So it can mean honour if you can whakapapa that back to yourself and your life's kaupapa
Yes tears of joy. Just came across this in my youtube feed. I am an indigenous native, i live in ohio in the US. Theres a wonderful connection here. Ancestors to current family that its all in the blood, the spirit, the culture, which colonization and many hardships have not taken away. I hope someday i can make it to the islands and intertwine my stories and spirits with the indigenous peoples there. ❤thank you for shring this! ❤❤
Wising I could feel the love from family as I did watching this beautiful moment captured here. I couldn't stop crying for a while after watching this. Such a heart warming video. Thank you for sharing.
I love this & the singing is so beautiful.. I feel it touch my soul & I weep with Joy 🎉 God will see the heart of all his people ,❤ strong in Spirit, Love & Oneness 🙏
for some reason this tribe and its traditions have become very beautiful things for me, in my country there are also things like this, I am Balinese and Hindu, but Indonesian Dayak customs, and this tribe have always made me respect
There is so much love among your iwi, whanau and tipuna there to witness your mana for your moko kauae hui! This REALLY shows the whanaungatanga!! WOW, what a powerful waiata and haka pukana for you and your wairua kaha on this special day! I am so glad to see you and your whanau celebrate and I am also glad to see such Maoritanga in this rangatahi! Even without proper fuller understanding of te reo Māori and customs I can tell this was a tremendously powerful spiritual event that was full of aroha, and I was incredibly touched that I got to witness it. Thank you so much for sharing this with your nation, the entire earth, and a respectful stranger far away in California!😭💖
Omg this is one of the most beautiful ceremonies ive ever seen. Im literally bawling from all the emotion, joy, and connection that surrounded this beautiful young woman. Truly awesome❤❤❤
WOW! She's ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! EVERYTHING about this video is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Thank you so much for sharing this with everyone. Sending you lots of love and hugs from Oregon! ❤
I love being Scottish & try to hold as much as I can of my heritage but alas ours is so diluted it's heartbreaking. But the love & adoration I have for your culture & strength is huge. You're a beautiful nation of strong people & I have the highest respect for you,
Thank you for sharing 💕 the amount of love and support in the room is palpable. I cried with you all. I had no idea what was said, but I was overwhelmed with emotion.

As a mixed native that’s family has lost their heritage, this is so powerful and reminds me to keep trying to reconnect to my ancestors
Hey my brother can I ask what native are you. I am so so sorry that you lost your heritage
Impossible for you to move forward while looking backward.

This is a Maori right of passage, having a face tattoo in Maori culture is symbol of status and nobility. And every tattoo is completely unique.

This woman is getting a tattoo on her face called “Moko Kauae.” These tattoos are a symbol of nobility and prestige among the Māori, who were the indigenous Polynesian people of New Zealand. Each one is unique and obtaining it is considered a rite of passage, which is why it is performed as a ritual.
Bro got that soothing tone❤❤
