“ The matter of kava is rather a matter of both kava and tō sugarcane, especially so in critical view of the Tongan version of the origin of both the kava and sugarcane plants. This is most evident in both the Tala 'oe Kava moe Tō and Tala 'oe Ouau 'oe Kava moe Tō Tales of the Origin of the Kava and Sugarcane and Ceremony of Kava and Sugarcane Plants by the famous tufunga fonua and tufunga tohi social architect/ social engineer and author Lo'au. The adoption of a "total" as opposed to a "partial" approach to the matter is both fitting and necessary, enlightening and all-embracing, i.e., by treating the matter of kava and tō kava and sugarcane and involving a mediation of intersecting or connecting and separating material-physical, psychological-emotional, and social-cultural entities, identities, or tendencies, in both its "partiality" and "totality!" By the way, the Tongan kava and tō was created at the intersection or connection and separation of the Tongan vaka boat and Tongan fale house -- all as entwined and intertwined forms of faiva performance and tufunga material arts. of greater development and refinement! ”
