What makes the able different from the disabled, it's not the body that matters the most but the spirit in souls and minds of a person that count in life. The great warriors and heros of the past in different areas and walks of life have disappeared in physical terms but their souls and minds are still hovering and floating in our stories and memories.

This is the Pongipongitapu, Sacred Morning, ritual in the Royal funeral (Hala) of HM King Siaosi Tupou V of the Kingdom of Tonga. It is an ancient Taumafa Kava, Royal Kava, Ceremony, to mark the death of HM Tupou V and the first kava cup for the next King, HM King Tupou VI. It is a part of the ancient ritual of the Tu'i Kanokupolu, Kanokupolu Kingly Line, and the ancient religion of the Tu'i Tonga Line, Scared Kingly Line, to mark the passing away of the fomer King and welcoming of the next King. This should not be confused with the Taumafa Kava for installing and coronating King Tupou VI, which will be held sometime next year after a year from the death of His predecessor.

This is the First Part of the Royal Funeral of HM King George Tupou V of the Kingdom of Tonga. It is a historical and cultural event whereby the funeral rituals of the ancient religion under the guidance of Lauaki and his Sacred Hands (Kau Nimatapu) from Ha'a Maliepo (Maliepo Lineage) and Christianity are amalgmated. Ha'a Maliepo is one of the two oldest Chiefly Lineages in the Kingdom - the other one is the Ha'a Talafale with the leadership of Noble Tu'i Pelehake. Only Lauaki and the Kau Nimatapu are allowed by tradition to take care of HM and the Royal Members when are in state of rest prepraring to be buried and taken from Maama (Earth) to Pulotu (Afterlife or Paradise).
The title Nuama was derived from the Moanan-Tongan words 'fonua'/land/fulfillment and 'maama'/earth/light. Both words are weltanschauung, worldwide view to life or philosophy of life. Their are several implications of such words regarding the ways Moanan-Tongan people in ancient sociieties perceived the meanings and purposes of life generally. There are five different meanings of fonua in Tongan culture, and four connotations for maama, interrelating in a given social condition within the normal scheme of things in space (va), time (ta) and the categories ('uketo'iangama'u).
