All your false beliefs, and knowledge, acquired throughout your life in higher education schools, and higher learning, that you have about the physical universe, shall be shaken to their core when you take the time to actually study, search, and research this compact material. You shall have a totally different perspective about time, space, and matter, and get a glimpse of these incredible occurrences such as:Time travelTime lapseTime stopSpace travelSuspended animationEnrix shall entice your mind to discover the secret ancient civilizations of the world that the Hawai'ian Mythology talks about, and take a closer look at their technologies, such as vimanas, laser rays, nuclear fission boring machines, holographic projection, suspended animation, instant fossilization, and nuclear weapons of mass destruction that they apported to the modern world. If you are able to understand this short cultural work:You shall know, and wonder about the colossal Nephilim tunnels which lay just beneath your feet. You shall discover the real purpose of all the observatories around the world. You shall realize that there's is another world much bigger than the world that we know beyond the colossal ice walls. You shall acquire knowledge of the inmense firmament foundations founded beyond the outer circle of the earth. You shall gain understanding of the very advanced underground cities created by the Nephilim, hidden right under the belly of the earth. You shall learn if it is possible, or not with our modern technology to travel through time, space, and matter.

You shall create in your mind a totally different world before the Great Flood. You shall learn a glimpse of the Hawai'ian culture since its inception right after the Great Flood. Henry Enrix touches on the pantheon of the Hawai'ian culture, and how the very same demons (gods) they worship today, destroy their current generations, and their modern descendants. You shall also understand that everything that we are living on earth at this very moment, it has been lived in past cultures, and civilizations; that the very high technologies of today, were the high technologies of yesterday, such as: Holographic projectionAvatar technologyInvisibility weaponsSubterranean city technologyVimana technologyStargate technology Nuclear bombs, and guided missilesConstant rain missile weaponsInstant freezing weaponsInstant fossilization weaponsNuclear weapons of mass destructionEnrix also goes deep in the insights of the spiritual world, on how to break the chains, and bonds, and shackles called ancestral curses, and how to follow the right path into the eternal realms of heaven, or hell. Henry Enrix dares you to go beyond your comfort zone, and listen with an open mind to what The All-Mighty God of the Universe has to tell you personally, intimately, and pay attention to Him, obey Him, and follow Him. Don't hesitate to gain the knowledge, wisdom, and understanding that your brain is starving for, and God is willing to provide. King Solomon, the wisest, richest, and most blessed king of the world of all ages, once said: "Above all riches in the world, better than gold, and silver, and precious stones, seek FIRST intelligence, wisdom, and understanding."

Download or read book Hawaii written by James A. Michener and published by Dial Press. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 1154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulitzer Prize–winning author James A. Michener brings Hawaii’s epic history vividly to life in a classic saga that has captivated readers since its initial publication in 1959. As the volcanic Hawaiian Islands sprout from the ocean floor, the land remains untouched for centuries—until, little more than a thousand years ago, Polynesian seafarers make the perilous journey across the Pacific, flourishing in this tropical paradise according to their ancient traditions. Then, in the early nineteenth century, American missionaries arrive, bringing with them a new creed and a new way of life. Based on exhaustive research and told in Michener’s immersive prose, Hawaii is the story of disparate peoples struggling to keep their identity, live in harmony, and, ultimately, join together. BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from James A. Michener's Centennial. Praise for Hawaii “Wonderful . . . [a] mammoth epic of the islands.”—The Baltimore Sun “One novel you must not miss!

Download or read book A Power in the World written by Lorenz Gonschor and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2019-06-30 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few people today know that in the nineteenth century, Hawai‘i was not only an internationally recognized independent nation but played a crucial role in the entire Pacific region and left an important legacy throughout Oceania. As the first non-Western state to gain full recognition as a coequal of the Western powers, yet at the same time grounded in indigenous tradition and identity, the Hawaiian Kingdom occupied a unique position in the late nineteenth-century world order. From this position, Hawai‘i’s leaders were able to promote the building of independent states based on their country’s model throughout the Pacific, envisioning the region to become politically unified. Such a pan-Oceanian polity would be able to withstand foreign colonialism and become, in the words of one of the idea’s pioneers, “a Power in the World.” After being developed over three decades among both native and non-native intellectuals close to the Hawaiian court, King Kalākaua’s government started implementing this vision in 1887 by concluding a treaty of confederation with Sāmoa, a first step toward a larger Hawaiian-led pan-Oceanian federation. Political unrest and Western imperialist interference in both Hawai‘i and Sāmoa prevented the project from advancing further at the time, and a long interlude of colonialism and occupation has obscured its legacy for over a century. Nonetheless it remains an inspiring historical precedent for movements toward greater political and economic integration in the Pacific Islands region today. Lorenz Gonschor examines two intertwined historical processes: The development of a Hawai‘i-based pan-Oceanian policy and underlying ideology, which in turn provided the rationale for the second process, the spread of the Hawaiian Kingdom’s constitutional model to other Pacific archipelagos. He argues that the legacy of this visionary policy is today re-emerging in the form of two interconnected movements—namely a growing movement in Hawai‘i to reclaim its legacy as Oceania’s historically leading nation-state on one hand, and an increasingly assertive Oceanian regionalism emanating mainly from Fiji and other postcolonial states in the Southwestern Pacific on the other. As a historical reference for both, nineteenth-century Hawaiian policy serves as an inspiration and guideline for envisioning de-colonial futures for the Pacific region.

Download or read book Water and the Law in Hawaii written by Lawrence H. Miike and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2004-03-31 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water and the Law in Hawaii provides an intellectual and legal framework for understanding both the past and future of Hawai‘i’s freshwater resources. It covers not only the känäwai (laws) governing the balancing act between preservation and use, but also the science of aquifers and streams and the customs and traditions practiced by ancient and present-day Hawaiians on the äina (land) and in the wai (water). In placing Hawaii water law in the context of its historical development, the author condenses an enormous amount of information on traditional Hawaiian social structure and mythology. His analysis and explanation of the Hawaii Supreme Court decisions on water rights pose difficult questions and reveal the Court's at times defective reasoning by referring readers to original source material. He is the first author to explain fully how water use permits will play out in a variety of circumstances that may arise in the future, and he discusses the interrelationship between the State Water Code and the common law on water rights, which few people understand or are aware of. Water and the Law in Hawaii is a vital contribution to understanding water law in Hawaii. It will prove invaluable to students of the subject and will appeal to those with an interest in cultural anthropology, planning, Hawaiian history, and political science.

Under fear of imminent invasion, the WARDs guide pilots into blacked-out airstrips and track unidentified planes across Pacific skies.
