RAEL’S COMMENT:
Nothing is “sacred”! All these are primitive superstitions. I hope that many nude photos are made on Puy de Lassolas where I met the Elohim and even on my tomb! And our creators will be very happy to be welcomed by nude models!
For many people, constantly on the hunt for a striking image to post on Facebook or Instagram, reaching the top of a mountain overlooking the clouds might provide the perfect shot.
And if you’re a Playboy model, with nearly 300,000 followers, why not quickly drop your kit and step right into that shot – butt naked.
That is what happened when Jaylene Cook climbed New Zealand’s Mount Taranaki.
However local Maori say the move was culturally utterly insensitive.
The top of the volcano is sacred for Maori.
“It’s like someone went into St Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican and took a nude photo,” Dennis Ngawhare, a spokesperson for the local Maori tribe, told the BBC.
“It’s a sacred place and something like this is just very inappropriate.”
A sacred ancestor
The picture of Ms Cook, herself from New Zealand, was taken when she climbed the mountain a few days ago with her partner.
Posted on her popular Instagram account, the picture of her gazing into the distance from the 2,518m peak has clocked up nearly 10,000 likes.
