Does anyone know who strated the Maori Religion? What book do they use to read to find out spiritual things?

Hi there :)
i found through research for school project that
Maori religion was based on the important concepts of mana and tapu. Mana is an impersonal force that can be both inherited and acquired by individuals in the course of their lives. Tapu refers to sacredness that was assigned by status at birth.
i'm not sure if that helped or not.

Thank you it did.

Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man cometh unto the Father but by Me."

Alexander the Great said, "Let's go kick some Persian ass."

Let's keep trading ancient quotes. This is fun!
