ALOHA FROM HAWAII WITH SPECIALLY MADE LAVA ROCK ART
PIECES. THEY WERE FORMED UNDER EXTREME HEAT FROM THE LAVA COMING DOWN AND THREATENING THE TOWN OF PAHOA IN OCTOBER 2014 OF LAST YEAR. THESE PIECES ARE UNIQUE TO THE PUNA BIG ISLAND OF HAWAII AND CAN BE FOUND NO WHERE ELSE. THIS IS REAL LAVA AND NOT THE FAKE ONES YOU MIGHT SEE ON THE INTERNET. THESE ARE REAL AND HAVE BEEN BLESSED BY THE LAVA KAHUNA KEKUHAUPI'O WHO WAS RAISED STEEPED IN THE NATIVE MAOLI TRADITION. HE ALSO HAPPENS TO BE THE ARTIST WHO HAD SPECIAL PERMISSION BY THE FAMILY TO COME ON THE PROPERTY AND MOLD THESE FANTASTIC , FUNNY, AND FUNKY ART PIECES GRANTED BY THE GREAT GODDESS PELE WHO SENDS THE BLOOD OF THE LAND ( LAVA) TO VARIOUS PLACES. ADD THESE TO YOUR ART COLLECTION AND WILL BE FOR ALL TO ADMIRE AND TALK ABOUT. EACH PIECE TESTED FOR DEXTERITY. NOT EVERY DAY DOES LAVA COME INTO YOUR BACK YARD. ON TOP OF THAT THEY HAVE BEEN BLESSED ONLY TO BRING GOOD LUCK CONTRARY TO THE FAKE ROOMER BY PARK OFFICIALS THAT LAVA ROCK IS BAD LUCK TO TAKE HOME TO THE MAINLAND. REMEMBER!!!! THE PIECES HAVE BEEN BLESSED PELE KAHUNA WHO TAKES THE CURSE OUT OF THE LAVA AND INFUSES IT WITH GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEST WISHES!!!!!!

Looks completely legitimate to me, especially as they have been blessed to counter the false roomers...

It makes you wonder why the lava would have to be blessed in the first place. If the rumor is fake that taking lava off-island brings bad luck, what's the point?

"EACH PIECE TESTED FOR DEXTERITY" do they grab you when you aren't looking?
A native Hawaiian told me that the souls of dead Hawaiians reside in the lava. It's not so much unlucky as disrespectful to remove it from the island.

There are advantages to being an atheist; I don't believe in my god OR yours.

They won't survive the shipping. An egg would have a better chance.

Why would it need to be blessed to bring only good luck if it is a false roomer of bad luck to begin with?

Can I boil the leaflets and serve with butter?
