ORDER, PROMULGATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE SUBJECT
In response to the CHED MEMORANDUM ORDER (CMO) NUMBER 05 SERIES OF 2018, POLICIES, STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES FOR THE
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN CRIMINOLOGY (BSCRIMINOLOGY) PROGRAM. And in accordance with the pertinent provisions of REPUBLIC ACT NO. 7722,
otherwise known as the “HIGHER EDUCATION ACT OF 1994”, and relation to R. A. No. 11480 as further amended by R. A. No. 7797. This in pursuance
of an outcomes – based quality assurance system as advocated under CMO No. 46, s. 2012, entitled “Policy Standards to Enhance Quality
Assurance (QA) in Philippine higher Education Through an Outcomes – Based and Typology – Based QA,” and by virtue of Commission en banc
Resolution No. 467 – 2017, dated July 4, 2017, this new subject curriculum is hereby prepared and adopted by the school, as promulgated and order
by the commission.
OPENING SENTIMENT:
The purpose of teaching and training is not just for information; it is for transformation. We are transformed by the renewing of our minds.
When we say renewed mind, you go back to your original design of mindset or your original mind. Why? Transformation requires the changing of the
mind. Nothing will change (transform), until your mind changed. Whatever you will not transform it will confirm you. The most difficult project in the
world is the reconstruction of a human mind; it is easier to go to mars than to change the mind of a Human. Or nothing is yours, until you discover/
rediscover or understand it. The twenty-first century will be one of responsibility-a century of maturity. The Creator’s goal for this season is maturity.
This is the so called responsibility freedom. We are emerging true leaders. Emerging true leaders interpret the past with insight. We need a
PARADIGM SHIFT. Wherein, learning system is not only based from the facts, rather based from the truth as well. In other words, unlearning and
relearning is a part of learning. And take note, learning is different from knowing. Learning is mental creative activity while knowing it is your personal
understanding or revelation. Thus, REVELATION is the receiving information about you based from the true concepts.
The secret to growth in life is knowledge expansion. Knowledge is the greatest pursuit in life, because you cannot believe beyond your
knowledge. To make sense, knowledge is the information that you acquire and learn as a process. Comprehension is the understanding the
knowledge which is the information that you acquire and learn. And wisdom is the right wise application of what you comprehend or understand
which comes from the knowledge or information that you accumulate and learn. The result is wise-dominion. This means that your right environment
of your purpose. In short, wherever there is no vision, there is often fighting, gossiping, murmuring, and backbiting. This implies that sometimes we
are busy but not effective. This is why the greatest failure in life is doing the wrong assignment. Busyness doesn’t mean you are effective. And
effectiveness is different from efficiency. In other words, only few are necessary. Because wisdom is Supreme, therefore get wisdom. Through it cost
all you have; get understanding. Thus, wisdom is applied laws and principles.

PART 01: INTRODUCTION- DEFINITION OF CHARACTER: THE PRIORITY OF CHARACTER IN THE CONTEXT OF PUBLIC SERVICE:
DEFINITION OF CHARACTER AS THE KEYS OR FOUNDATION OF LEADERSHIP
1. Character is a commitment to a set of values without compromise.
2. Character is dedication to a set of standards without wavering.
3. Character is self-imposed discipline in keeping with moral convictions.
4. Character is a constant effort to integrate one’s words, deeds, and actions into one.

righteous. Meaning you’re law abiding citizen, your principles and laws are aligned with the principles and laws of our Creator. This implies that
character and righteousness are goes together. Righteousness means right positioning with the laws and principles of the Creator. Take note
righteousness is a legal term use in the court of law not a religious term. It’s a governmental term.
DIFFERENT BETWEEN REPUTATIONS FROM CHARACTER
REPUTATION - Is what others think about you and what you are in public.
CHARACTER - Is the truth about you and what you are in private.

 In essence the life of peace officer is personal but it is not private. The life of Police officer is like an open book everybody can open and
read it. Which means that as a public servant; there’s no such thing as private life, your life is personal but it is not private; that’s a character. Another
scenario: CHARACTER is display in public but tested in private. In essence, character is the source of trust. Why? It is impossible to a leader to
lead without the trust of his/her followers because trust is the currency of leadership.
Your weight of your words is your character, because the values of a leader are personal but it is not private.

FIRSTLY, character, is simply that which is unchanging.

THE QUESTION IS?
A. How often do you change?
B. Who are you?
C. Are you the same person all the time, are you predictable?
As a leader know that people will not follow you if they don’t trust you. Character attracts quality. Character is a commitment to a set of values
without compromise.
VALUES ARE THE THINGS YOU VALUE or worth.
VALUES – A person’s principles or standards of behavior, one’s judgement of what is important in life.
For instance, if you value your service as public servants, you will not break or involved or engage yourself in any illegal activities.
SOME VALUES PRINCIPLES:
1. Values are belief or a conviction 5. Values regulate and motivate personal and corporate action and conduct.
2. Values are standards or ideas that regulate principles and conducts. 6. Without values leadership is Destiny without discipline.
3. Values are personal philosophy. 7. Vision protected and interpreted through values. It’s the original way to show
4. Values produce ethics, Morals standards and values that effects behavior one’s vision.
THEREFORE: Values and character equals behavior, and behavior manifests your attitude.

THE POWER OF VALUES IN LEADERSHIP CHARACTER:

1. Values are better than rules 8. Values shape an organization and nation
2. Values are more important than rules. 9. Values are personal but never private
3. Values outlive goals. 10. Values become a culture.
4. Values send a message. 11. Values must be shared.
5. Values must be identified. 12. Values attract like values
6. Values must be accepted. 13. Values become the social norm.
7. Values must be believed. 14. Values can create or destroy.

SECONDLY, character is the dedication to a set of standards without wavering. What are your standards? Your standards will determine your
character. For instance; I do not steal or tell lies that is standard. Character is so subtle there is no excuse in life for breaking standards. Moreover,
set policies but never make any your best. For instance, never say honesty is your best policy, for this will mean you have a third and a fourth best. A
person of character will say; that’s my only policy.

THIRDLY, character is self-imposed discipline for the sake of moral convictions. That means a person of character doesn’t need policies, they police
themselves. A person of character locks themselves up in the prison of their own conviction and throws away the keys. Most Scholars nowadays try
to leave off their charisma, talents or gifts. What they forgot is that, your gifts will never protect you. In fact, they will destroy you. The only thing that
can protect them is character. The only thing that can protect your future is your character.
Furthermore, character is a constant effort to integrate your words, deeds and actions as one. In other words, character is when your
words, deeds and actions are one. Life does not allow you to be schizo free.
A PERSON WITHOUT CHARACTER WILL PROMISE SOMETHING AND DO ANOTHER. CHARACTER IS SACRIFICE FOR PRINCIPLES
It means you sacrifice friendships, lose your best friend in order to keep your principles. To be able to get your character right, ask
yourself; who are you with right now that you should not be with? What are you doing right now in secret that you should not be doing? Cut the
baggage; be willing to sacrifice to protect your principles. Nevertheless, character is simply integrity.
INTEGRITY - Means you are one with yourself. You do what you say, you act what you say.

THE FOUNDATION OF TRUST IS INTEGRITY

Living a principle driven life, is very essential to become successful. Principles are standard, you can ignore it or hate it but you can never
disagree with it. Likewise, character.
SERVICE AND MORALITY
1. Character prevents a leader from hurting those around him 4. Leaders influence the morality of the followers
2. Leaders influence the Mind-set of the followers 5. Leaders influence the destiny of the followers
3. Leaders influence the characteristics and attitudes of the followers
CHARISMA VERSUS CHARACTER
1. People become leaders when they make the decision not to sacrifice their principles on the altar of convenience or compromise.
2. The greatest leader Jesus of Nazareth said: What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man
give in exchange for his soul? (Matthew 16:26).
THE MOST POWERFUL MORAL FORCE OF SERVICE
CHARACTER IS THE MOST POWERFUL FORCE A LEADER CAN POSSESS BECAUSE:
1. It protects his life, his leadership, and his legacy.
2. It manifests who he is and shapes who will become.
3. Without character every other aspect of leadership is at risk.
4. Character extends the longevity of service.
5. Character, in the long run, is the decisive factor in the life of an individual and of nations alike –
6. A leader’s gift is only as safe as the character that contains it.
TAKE NOTE: Character is the source of trust, and Trust is the products of your character.

ADDITIONAL POWER OF MORAL FORCE OF LEADERSHIP

1. To educate a man in the mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society. –
2. A people who values its privileges above its principles soon loses both. –
3. If an individual has strong values, he doesn’t need a lot of external laws and rules to govern his life.

ignore it or hate it but you can never disagree with it. Likewise, character.
SOME FACTS TO BE PONDERED ON CHARACTER FORMATION
THE QUESTIONS ARE?
1. WHY DO WE CALL NUMBERS THAT CHARACTER? - This is because one is always one and two is always two. Whether you are using it in the
night or the day, it never changes its character.
2. WHY DO WE CALL STATUES CHARACTER? - It’s because no matter what happens around them they never change.
3. WHY DO WE CALL PRINCIPALS CHARACTERS? - Because principles are laws they never change. Furthermore, the Hebrew concept of
holiness is integrity. Holiness means you are integrated. It means you are one. You are not a different person on Monday and another person on
Tuesday. And then you are a different person on Sunday also. No, refuse to have a multi personality. Be holy, be one.
HOW TO PROTECT YOUR CHARACTER AS A PUBLIC SERVANT OR POLICE OFFICER:
1. STOP BEING A HYPOCRITE - However, most people hardly maintain their characters because they live by trends and popularity. A person with
character does not live on what’s popular but lives on principles.
2. DON’T SACRIFICE YOUR PRINCIPLES - Just for popularity and because if you do, you will never be trusted, also you just may never become a leader.
People say power corrupts but that’s not true, power simply reveals corruption. You were already defective before you finally got a chance to show it.
Power is pure.
3. IF YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, AND YOU DECIDE TO BE WHO YOU ARE, YOU DON’T NEED ANYONE TO CREATE ANOTHER PERSON FOR YOU - An image
consultant is someone you paid to create someone who doesn’t exist. Politicians, movie stars, entertainers, have no image so they try to sell the
public an image. They buy it and then sooner or later, the real one shows up. Most people ask for forgiveness simply because they got caught trying
to fake an image.
4. A PERSON OF CHARACTER DOESN’T NEED TO TALK, IT WILL SHOW - The moment you meet them you immediately see integrity in them. You reflect on
the outside what you are on the inside.
5. DON’T TELL YOUR CONSTITUENTS DON’T SMOKE AND YOU ARE SMOKING - God is more concentrated in character than in you dominating the earth.
Your words protect your character. God’s prerequisite for dominion and ruler-ship character is God’s foundation for leadership. Before God gave you
power, he gave you an image. And the characteristics of that image means you are stable just like him so he can trust you with power. In that light,
there are three things that will test your character, as in, they will show you how your character is being manifested.
THREE (3) THINGS THAT WILL TEST YOUR CHARACTER
1. POWER - Give someone power and their true character shows up.
2. MONEY - Money brings out real characters out of people.
3. ACCESS TO SEX - Their character shows up or their lack of it. You want to know someone’s true self? Give them those things mentioned above;
power, money and access to sex.
THE RACE OF LIFE IS NOT TO THE SWIFT BUT TO THOSE WHO ENDURE TO THE END. IN EFFECT, THE ONLY WAY TO TEST CHARACTER IS BY TEMPTATION
The word temp or to temper means test for weakness. You will never have a time in your life when you are free from temptation, tempting
will constantly be in your life to monitor your character. Hence, make a conscious decision today that you are going to get rid of things that can
destroy your character. THAT MIGHT INCLUDE:
A. Cutting off some friends or
B. bad habits
God gave you character before power and that’s because God knew, without character the power will destroy you. Lack of character can
make you lose something you have spent your whole life building in just 5 secs. To be safe, you have to protect your character.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT LESSONS FOR ETHICAL LEADERSHIP
CHARACTER - Is like a personal alarm system that protects you from breaking and violating your convictions and value system.

DEVELOPING AN ETHICAL CHARACTER FOR LEADERSHIP

1. HOW TO PROTECT YOUR LEADERSHIP INFLUENCE AND POWER? - No one should think they are too smart. Similarly no one should think they are too
safe to avoid the consequences of a lack of character. “Character is the number one plague of leadership today. It is the most important balance for
leadership. Character is like a personal alarm system that protects you from breaking, and violating your convictions and value system.

2. THE IMPORTANCE OF PRINCIPLES ON LEADERSHIP CHARACTER - Principles are values, standards and laws that you refuse to sell at the altar of
convenience,” he says. Munroe says the world today needs leaders who see principles as being more than profits, public adulation and their public
comfort.
3. FALLING UP INSTEAD OF FALLING DOWN - People do fall and characters do collapse,” he says. But the most important thing is what you do to restore
your character when you’ve broken a code of respect, when you’ve committed an immoral act and violated people’s trust.

4. TRUST IS AN ACCOUNT THAT PEOPLE PUT A DEPOSIT ON THE LONGER THEY HAVE KNOWN YOU AND THE MORE YOU’RE TESTED - Many Public servant
have lost the trust of their companies, constituents, nations, followers, and families and find it difficult to regain it. Why? Because of they lacked of
the one quality that would have protected their leadership and given them enduring influence. They lack the quality of moral force, or character.
THAT’S WHY THE BRIEF OVERVIEW OF QUALITIES IN A LEADER ARE:
A. Strong convictions D. Integrity
B. Accountability E. Responsible/ness
C. Humility F. Discipline and Sacrifice

BE YOURSELF—BE HUMBLE
A true leader possesses a pervasive spirit of humility. He is constantly aware that the opportunity to lead others to a greater future is a
corporate effort and not an exercise in personal heroism. If you want to be a leader, you need a mixture of courage and strength tempered with
humility.
HUMILITY -Is the ability to be yourself. The word humble comes from the Latin root word humus, meaning “earth.” Humility denotes earthiness or
an awareness of one’s true essence.
TAKE NOTE: Being humble, therefore, does not mean degrading or reducing oneself in the estimation of another, but rather having an
awareness, acceptance, and appreciation of one’s true worth and value.
In this regard, you cannot “decide” to be humble because it is not something you decide to be; it is what you are.
Leaders are individuals who have discovered their true selves and know who they are. Thus, true leaders are naturally humble, in the full sense of
the word. HUMILITY is also the ability to transfer glory. In other words, you are not so anxious to receive all the recognition that you can’t acknowledge
someone else’s contribution. You can say, “This person’s help made it possible.”
TAKE NOTE: Humility is not stupidity. It doesn’t mean that you allow yourself to be pressured to do something because someone puts
you on a guilt trip. Humility is the ability to control knowledge and power, even though you know they are yours to exercise. It is speaking your
knowledge at the right time, in the right words, and to the right person.
The leader is not an actor or a performer, but he is conscious that leadership is both a private and public lifestyle. He never uses the
position of leadership to conceal his defects but instead submits through the service of that position to the daily reminders of those defects and the
need to strengthen them.
PRIDE – It is evidence of their poor self-concept and low self-esteem. They think they can elevate themselves by devaluing others. They attempt to
secure a sense of superiority by maintaining a feeling of inferiority in others.

BE WILLING TO SACRIFICE
Remember that true leaders not only have found a purpose and objective to live for, but also have found a vision to die for. Greatness in
life is found in the willingness to die to yourself—your pleasures and personal ambition—for the sake of your vision.
CULTIVATE A GRATEFUL ATTITUDE
Having a grateful attitude toward God and others will give you strength and peace and will set a positive tone for your leadership.
PROVE YOURSELF TO BE TRUSTWORTHY
True leaders are trustworthy; they are sought out for advice and assistance in sensitive situations. RELIABILITY and
TRUSTWORTHINESS are essential leadership qualities. Trustworthy servants also are discreet. They are able to keep confidences. They don’t
engage in gossip, and they don’t set people against one other or use their weaknesses to manipulate them. A trustworthy leader also has a good
reputation. “He must also have a good reputation with outsiders.
TRUST - Is an account that people put a deposit on the longer they have known you and the more you’re tested. And trust is a product of test over
time. Thus, trust is the products of stability, durability and consistency.

BASIC RELATED TERMINOLOGIES AND DEFINITIONS SET 01:
1. LEADERSHIP - Is the capacity to influence others through inspiration motivated by passion, generated by vision, produced by a conviction, ignited by
a purpose.”
2. SEASON - Is often used to define change that is not a short-term event but rather an extended period of transition.
3. TRADITION - Means the transmission of customs or beliefs from generation to generation, or the fact of being passed on in this way. As success
that is frozen in time but that you try to bring into the future, even as change is making the old ways irrelevant.
4. UNDERSTANDING – Means receiving the revelation of truth base on its concepts.
5. CONCEPTS – Are the basic raw or data (information) materials for understanding.
6. TRUTH – Is the original information, intent and thought of the Creator.
7. EFFECTIVENESS – Is about doing the right things, while EFFICIENCY – Is about doing things rights.
8. IMPORTANCE – It is the state of fact of being of great significance or value. It also the quality of being important and worth of note.
9. PRIORITY - Doing the right thing at the right time in the right way. Priority enables us to spend our days putting first things first.
10. GREED - Is the mismanagement of resources for personal benefit, coupled with a disregard for the benefit of others. Greed is when you want more
than you need at the expense of everybody else. GREED means I know I need only one pillow, but I want ten. I need only one little plateful of food at
a time, but I want the whole restaurant. Greedy people don’t care who gets hurt. They just go after whatever they want and don’t concern themselves
with other people. They see an opportunity to acquire more money, greater status, or further pleasures, and they charge ahead in pursuit of their
selfish goals, regardless of how many people they have to trample on in the process.

TAKE NOTE: GREED walks hand-in-hand with partners such as malice, deceit, theft, envy, evil thoughts, lewdness, adultery, slander,
arrogance, murder, and all kinds of folly (Mark 7:21-22), (Lk. 12:15-21). Mismanagement through greed. When we mismanage, we lose.
CAPITALISM (CAPITALIST) AND SOCIALISM (SOCIALIST): GREEDY
Understanding the misconception of capitalism (capitalist) and socialism (socialist) as is they are greedy as we all know in general. Let’s
try first to define the meaning of capitalism or capitalist as is was misunderstood by the average general public. The purpose is so that we will
understand the real true meaning and purpose of these both words. This is because of our past influence. It’s time for us to correct some erroneous
influence from our past. In essence, to enable us to get rid from the erroneous interpretation from the past.

A. CAPITALISM (CAPITALIST) – Is the misconception or misinterpretation of the real meaning and purpose of true wealth. To make sense, it is the
accumulation of wealth through greedy which is the mismanagement of resources. Therefore, it is the hoarding of wealth for personal benefit. And
the opposite of hoarding is access.

B. TRUE CAPITALISM (CAPITALIST) – Is the execution of your idea to generate wealth or money. In fact capitalism is the right management of
your resources. In true capitalism, their mindset about money is not ownership but management or stewardship. True wealth is by access not by
hoarding. Furthermore, capitalism is not evil or bad as we learned in the past, as a matter of fact; it is God’s original idea in us as His products.
Remember, the Creator will never give us money or wealth; He will give us ability or idea to generate wealth or money. TAKE NOTE: MONEY is the
execution of your idea, that’s why it is not necessary to have a lot of money to generate money.
THEREFORE, true capitalist are true socialist. How? This means that you are responsibility matured; since you generate and produce
money from the society, you are obligated and responsible to return your money in the community though your charity or foundation. Actually, true
capitalist are the true socialist, by helping, lifting, and rising up others life through their charity project or foundation – that’s the true Philanthropist.
SOME PRINCIPLE ABOUT MONEY: FIVE (5) MONEY HIDDEN
1. Money hides in people
2. Money hides in problem or crisis
3. Money hides in product and service
4. Money hides in gift and talent
5. Money hides in passion. Take note: No money went to the moon; No money fly or went to the mars; and No money left the earth. It’s all up here.

12. MANAGEMENT – Is the effective, efficient, correct, and timely use of another person’s property and resources for the purpose for which they were
delegated with a view to producing the expected added value (Ps. 115:16).
13. TAKING CARE OF RESOURCES - Whatever you mismanage, you start losing. Whatever you manage properly, you protect. Good managers do not
hoard resources, either.
PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 5 OF 39
A. DISCIPLINE - Is the key to proper management. You cannot be effective, efficient, correct, timely, and beneficial to others if you do not apply
consistent effort (Lk. 16:10-12). Means it is the total submission of one’s self to the rule of law rather than desire or feeling. In other words, discipline

would include the so-called atheist, secularist, communist, socialist, humanist or agnostic, for they all adhere to a belief system of some kind, even if
it is the belief that there is no providential component in creation or life as we know it, or a belief in the power of the human as the supreme measure
of truth and right. We are intimidated by what we don’t know. RELIGION is the result of an inherent hunger in the human spirit that man cannot define
yet must seek to satisfy. All Religions are the same.
16. APARTHEID – Racial segregation. It is not about racism, it’s all about ideology.
17. CHRISTIANITY - As a religion is well-known, well-established, well-studied, well-researched, well-recorded, and well-distributed; but little or nothing
is known about the Kingdom. As a matter of fact, most of those trained in official institutions to understand the Christian faith and propagate its
purported message graduate without ever taking a single course in Kingdom studies.
18. KINGDOM -The governing influence of a king over his territory, impacting it with his personal will, purpose, and intent, producing a culture, values,
morals, and lifestyle that reflect the king’s desires and nature for his citizens. In short, Kingdom is the governing influence of a king over his territory.
It is a Nation governed by a sovereign king.
19. COLONY - Is populated by people who originally came from another place. It is an outpost inhabited by citizens of a faraway country whose
allegiance remains with their home government. COLONY - Is “a group of emigrants or their descendants who settle in a distant land but remain
subject to the parent country.”

A. A COLONY is a group of citizens established in a foreign territory to influence that domain for their home government.
B. A colony is a foreign territory inhabited by citizens charged to influence that domain with the culture and values of their government.

20. COLONIZATION - Involves citizens of one country inhabiting foreign territory for the purpose of influencing that domain with the culture and values
of their native country and governing it with the laws of their home government. (Matt. 4:17). As citizens of heaven, we inhabit the earth for the

PART 02: INTRODUCTION OF FILIPINO (MAHARLIKAN) NATIONALISM AND PATRIOTISM

Filipino nationalism started in the Philippines in the 1800s with an upsurge of patriotic feelings and nationalistic ideals resulting from more
than two decades of Spanish rule. This served as the backbone of, and continues to this day, the first nationalist revolution in Asia, the Philippine
Revolution of 1896 (Joaqs, 1990). These nationalistic feelings have resulted to a comprehensive campaign in the Philippines for political, social and
economic liberty.
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF FILIPINO NATIONALISM
The Philippines had been split into various principalities known as “barangays” in the years before the 11th century, a name originating
from Malayan ships called “balangays.” Datus, rajahs or sultans governed these tiny political units (Halili, 2004). In 1565, when Spanish explorer
Miguel Lopez de Legaspi arrived from Mexico and established the first European colonies in Cebu, European colonization started in earnest.
Starting with only five ships and five hundred men accompanied by Augustinian monks and further strengthening by two hundred soldiers
in 1567, he was able to repel competing Portuguese colonizers and lay the foundations for the Spanish colonization of the archipelago. The Spanish
occupied the kingdoms of Maynila and Tondo in 1571 and founded Manila as the capital of the Spanish East Indies (Kurlansky, 1999). This Spanish
colonization united the archipelago of the Philippines into one political unit.
THE BEGINNING OF FILIPINO NATIONALISM
Originally, the word “Filipino” referred to the Philippines “Spanish criollos.” The Spanish leaders described the natives as Indians during
their 333 –year rule over the Philippines, more known as insulars, criollos, or creoles, were also called “Filipinos” during the colonial era as well.
Spanish-born Spaniards or Philippine-based continental Spaniards were referred to as Peninsulars. Those of blended heritage have been called
Mestizos. Despite being considered inferior by the Peninsulars, the Creoles had enjoyed numerous roles of state and church, and composed most of
PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 7 OF 39
the bureaucracy of government. The feeling of domestic awareness originated from the Creoles, who now consider themselves “Filipino.” Three
significant factors, economy, education, and parish secularization brought it to its emergence.
These factors led to the Filipino Nationalism’s birth. The Philippines ‘opening to global or world trade, the increase of the upper class, and
the influx of Europe’s liberal thoughts were just a few instances of how the Philippines became a stable nation. “The first manifestation of Philippine
nationalism followed in the 1880s and 1890, with a reform or propaganda movement carried out both in Spain and in the Philippines with the aim of
“propagandizing” the circumstances of the Philippines in the hopes that the social, political and financial life of the Philippines would be changed by
peaceful means (History of the Philippine Revolution”, 2015).
OTHER CONCEPTS OF FILIPINO NATIONALISM
Nationalism is the secular identification and engagement of our people with the Filipino nation and domestic community, the Philippines as
our country and homeland. It goes beyond our family, clan, tribe, village, city, province, religion, local culture and religion. First and foremost, it is
being pro-Filipino; believing that we belong to one body, mind, soul and spirit. It’s a pride to be Filipino; self-respect as a Filipino; pride in our national
cultural heritage and manner of life, with their constraints being realized. It involves pride in our heroes, pride in our flags, national anthem and other
symbols of our nationhood; national pride and dignity inspired by the willingness to serve our nation alone and with dedication, and to sacrifice for it,
if necessary with our own lives.
It is a tool of change and reform; it aims our moral and spiritual regeneration, our liberation from ignorance, bigotry (intolerance towards
those who hold distinct views of themselves), parochialism (narrow-mindedness), feudalism (a system in which higher-ranking individuals gave land
and protection and worked and fought for them in exchange); colonial mentality (the internalized attitude of people’s racial or cultural inferiority as a
consequence of colonization), bribery and distorted elitism (an elite’s advocacy or presence as a dominant component in a scheme or community). I
other words, as Filipinos, it has a powerful national identity send and a high-minded intent.
FURTHER DETAILS ON HISTORICAL EVENT BEFORE AND AFTER THE COLONIZATION PERIOD
The Kingdom of Maharlika is started on 16th century under the King Luisiung Taegan-Tallano clan and ended up in 16th century. It
encompassed for about 900 years, but ceased to exist when Spanish conquest set-in these archipelagos and named it in honor of King Philip of
Spain (Islas Filipinas). But before the Maharlikan Kingdom, it was called the Land of Ophir a group of island or archipelagos. In the Old Testament
were gold and precious gems originated and transported to the golden palace of King Solomon. Ophir was the 6th generations of NOAH, the son of
Joctan. Which is why Maharlikan are the descendant of Joctan, and African are descendant of Peleg accordingly. It was the proposal of then former
President Ferdinand E. Marcos for the revival of Maharlikan Kingdom in the ASEAN and created the ASEAN dollar through the golden deposit of
400,000 metric tons of the Taegan-Tallano clan in Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and his gold bullion deposits in European and USA.
However, the Devine Spiritual Masters rejected these proposals because president FEM became so ambitious to be the future king or
Sultan of the New Maharlikan Kingdom. President FEM only his mission was in preparation for the coming of Spiritual Devine Government or the
revival of the Ancient Lemurian Devine Government and Philippines being the Seat of its Central Government. But why Philippines were chosen as
the seat of the central government? Because Philippines was the land called Ophir, a group of islands that survived the deluge that sunk the
Lemurian Continent. That’s why president FEM failed to accomplished his tasks. So far there are many predictions that his only son FEM, Jr. will
finish the job of his father. Let us hope and pray for his success. And this nation will be great again. Shalom.
SOME ENCRYPT SPEECH OF PRESIDENT RODRIGO ROA DUTERTE
Sabi ko kay Inday, ‘wag kang mag-Presidente. Unless you see something na kayay mong magagawa para sa bayan. But it it’s just a matter of an
ambition, lay off. Wala kang makukuha riyan, pagod lang. Kung hindi ka magnakaw, wala pagod lang. Unless you are driven by PATRIOTISM.

UNDERSTANDING PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM

"IF PATRIOTISM WERE DEFINED, NOT AS BLIND OBEDIENCE TO GOVERNMENT, NOR AS SUBMISSIVE WORSHIP TO FLAGS AND ANTHEMS, BUT
RATHER AS LOVE OF ONE'S COUNTRY, ONE'S FELLOW CITIZENS (ALL OVER THE WORLD), AS LOYALTY TO THE PRINCIPLES OF JUSTICE AND DEMOCRACY,
THEN PATRIOTISM WOULD REQUIRE US TO DISOBEY OUR GOVERNMENT, WHEN IT VIOLATED THOSE PRINCIPLES." - HOWARD ZINN

NATIONALISM
The History Nationalism and patriotism in our country is as old as the history of humankind. The Term "NATIONALISM" is generally used
to describe two things first is the attitude that the members of a nation have which includes the concept of national identity such as common origin,
ethnicity, and cultural ties. The other one is the actions that the members of the nation take when seeking to achieve (or sustain) self-determination.
Is characterized by an attachment of superiority to one's country, an aspiration for its continuity, prosperity, and maintaining a high regard and
respect for the laws, principles and policies of that country.
NATIONALISM - Etymologically, means love, care for, preservation and patronage of one’s native land and everything in it—the
country of birth of a national, whether it be Filipino or otherwise. To be a Filipino nationalist, therefore, the ethnological ramifications of
nationalism must all be present in one’s being. This implies a heartfelt dedication for the love, care, and preservation of the Philippines and
everything that is identified with it: the Philippine territory, the inhabitants, Philippine sovereignty, its government, all things that represent and
symbolize the country; the aspirations, hopes, dreams and needs of the Filipino people.

FURTHERMORE - NATIONALISM
1. A feeling that people have of being loyal to and proud of their country often with the belief that it is better and more important than other
countries
2. A desire by a large group of people (such as people who share the same culture, history, language, etc.) to form a separate and
independent nation of their own.
3. Devotion to the interests of a certain country and belief that it is better and more important than other countries.
4. Loyalty and devotion to a nation ESPECIALLY : a sense of national consciousness (see CONSCIOUSNESS SENSE 1C) exalting one nation
above all others and placing primary emphasis on promotion of its culture and interests as opposed to those of other nations or  supranational
groups Intense NATIONALISM  was one of the causes of the war.

PATRIOTISM - Is taken from the Latin term “pater”, which literally means “father”. Patriotism is the willingness and determination to
lay down one’s life for the fatherland—the constant resolve to sacrifice one’s life and limb for the preservation of the State. It is the total
realization of that love for the country, which is nationalism. In other words, to be patriotic is to be nationalistic. Conversely, one cannot be
patriotic without being nationalistic.
In the Philippines, today, we are lacking in patriots largely due to the diffusion of Filipino values, culture, influence of conquistadores,
and the confluence of historical bad governance. The Philippine State is in dire need of statesmen who truly understand the basics of politics—
politics being defined as the systematic study of the state—the state being defined as having four basic elements: territory (the Philippine
archipelago, its waters, subterranean shelves, etc.), people (the Filipino people who are nationalistic and patriotic), sovereignty (freedom from
foreign dictates), and government (a body politic composed of delegates who are considered to be representatives of the people to stand and
fight for Filipino interests, dreams, aspirations, and hopes). For as long as our political leaders blind us of these things, for as long as the
Filipino people refuse to learn, for as long as we remain mediocre, for as long we could not change our self inwardly, for as long as we refuse
to change, nationalism and patriotism will only be words in the dictionary.
PATRIOTISM

PAGE 8 OF 39
1. Love for or devotion to one's country. Has had different meanings over time, and its meaning is highly dependent upon context, geography
and philosophy.
2. The quality of being patriotic; vigorous support for one's country. "A highly decorated officer of unquestionable integrity and patriotism"
3. Love for or devotion to one's country although poles apart ideologically, they are both unashamed of their  patriotism.
4. The quality of being patriotic; vigorous support for one's country. "A highly decorated officer of unquestionable integrity and patriotism"
PATRIOTIC AND NATIONALISTIC
PATRIOT/ PATRIOTIC
The patriot says, 'I LOVE MY COUNTRY,' works for its good, and defends it if necessary--against enemies within and without. He strives
and prays not primarily that God will bless his country, but that his country will bless God. the patriot is proud of his country for what it does , and the
nationalist is proud of his country no matter what it does ; The love and adoration for the place where an individual is born, brought up, and the
nation that place belongs to. These attachments can be related to ethnic, cultural, political or historical. A Patriot is also being proud of his country's
virtues but with an eagerness and readiness to correct its deficiencies to be better. A Patriot acknowledges the patriotism of citizens of other
countries and respects their virtues.
NATIONALIST
The nationalist, meanwhile, says, 'My country is better than yours.' 'My country is the greatest there has ever been.' 'The greatest nation
on God's green earth.' ' They hate my country because it is so good.'" the first attitude creates a feeling of responsibility while the second a feeling of
blind arrogance that leads to a war. The pride of nationalist, however, trumpets his country's virtues and denies its deficiencies. Nationalist is
contemptuous toward the virtues of other countries. Nationalist wants to be and proclaims his country to be "the greatest". Question to be asked here
is - should such self-proclaimed greatness be above rational thinking and goodness?
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE, THEN?
An excess of patriotism shown by in the defense of a nation is called chauvinism or jingoism. The difference between patriotism and
nationalism is simple - a patriot loves his country and is proud of it for what it does whereas a nationalist loves his country and is proud of his country
NO MATTER WHAT IT DOES. Quite clearly, patriotism nurtures a feeling of 'responsibility' in the citizens while nationalism breeds 'blind arrogance'
or ignorance and often, that leads to a war.
PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM, in the best sense of the word, is love of justice and democracy for all of your fellow citizens.  And it's
something we can and should practice every day, not just once each summer.
IN SUMMARY:
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM IS THAT THE PATRIOT IS PROUD OF HIS/HER COUNTRY FOR WHAT IT DOE
AND THE NATIONALIST IS PROUD OF HIS/HER COUNTRY NO MATTER WHAT IT DOES.
NATIONALISM PATRIOTISM
Nationalism means to give more importance to culture, Patriotism pertains to the love of the nation, with more
language and heritage. emphasis on values and beliefs
Nationalists are believers in the perfection of state, Hence they Patriots are believers in principle, which the state may or may not reflect, so they
never question the state, it’s intentions or its action. Anyone may support or oppose the state and still be called patriots
questioning the state can make them anti-national.
Nationalism can be aggressive at times and believes in supremacy Patriotism is mostly benign and passive by nature and believes in equality of the
of its nation nations
Nationalism is rooted in rivalry and resentment Patriotism is based on affection
Nationalists assume that their country is better than every country Patriots believe that their countyr is one of the best and can still be improved in
many ways
Nationalist cannot tolerate any criticism and considers it an insult Patriotic person tends to tolerate criticism and tries to learn something new from
to the country it
Nationalism tries to find justification for mistakes made in the past Patriotism enables people to understand both the shortcomings and
improvements made.

TYPES OF NATIONALISM
1. ETHNIC NATIONALISM (ETHNONATIONALISM) – The country is described from prior generations in terms of ethnicity and descent. It also involves the
concept of a shared culture among group members, and generally a shared language. The nation’s membership or citizenship is also hereditary. The
state derives political legitimacy from its status as the ethnic group’s homeland and from its obligation to safeguard the partially domestic group and
as a group to promote its family and social life.
In contrast to Western opinions of a country defined by its geographic territory, theorist Anthony D. Smith utilizes the word ethnic
nationalism’ fro non Western nations of nationalism. The word “ethnonationalism” is usually used only in relation to nationalists who support an
explicit ideology along these lines; the more generic word is “ethnic nationalism” and is used by nationalists who hold such views in an informal,
instinctive, or unsystematic manner.
Lastly, the pejorative type of both is “ethnocentric nationalism” or “tribal nationalism,” although “tribal nationalism” may have a non-
pejorative significance when debating African, Native American or other nationalisms that publicly claim a tribal identity.

2. CIVIC NATIONALISM (CIVIL NATIONALISM) – The state derives political legitimacy from its citizens ‘active involvement and the extent to which it reflects
the “will of the individuals.” Civic nationalism lies within the traditions of rationalism and liberalism, but it is contrasted with ethnic nationalism as a
type of nationalism. Civic nation membership is regarded to be voluntary. The growth of representative democracy in nations such as the United
States and France was affected by civil-national values.
Moreover, state nationalism, often coupled with ethnic nationalism, is a version of civic nationalism. It means that the country is a
community of those who contribute to the state’s maintenance and strength, and that there is the person to contribute to that objective. Henceforth,
the country is supposed to be a community of those who contribute to the state’s maintenance and strength, and where the person exists expressly
in the society to contribute to that objective. This often results in fascism-generally characterized by authoritarianism and nationalism, fascism is a
political ideology.

3. EXPANSIONIST NATIONALISM – A radical form of imperialism or colonization that includes independent, patriotic feelings with a faith in expansionism,
generally through military aggression. The word was coined in the late 19 century as European powers indulged in the ‘Scramble of Africa ‘ in the
name of domestic glory, but was most closely linked with militarist governments in the 20th century, including Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany, the
Japanese Empire, and the Balkan nations of Albania (Great Albania), Bulgaria (Greater Bulgaria), Croatia (Greater Croatia), Hungary.
Lastly, Nations are not believed to be equivalent to their right to self-determination; some countries are believed to possess features or
qualities that make them superior to others. Therefore, expansionist or colonizer nationalism argues the right of the state of expands its boundaries
at the cost of its neighbors.

4. ROMANTIC NATIONALISM – Also known as “organic nationalism and identity nationalism.” Is the form of ethnic nationalism in which the state derives
political legitimacy as a result and expression of the nation’s natural. It is based on the presence of a historical ethnic culture that meets the romantic
PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 9 OF 39
ideal. Moreover, romanticism’s values and opposed the rationalism of Enlightenment. A historical ethnic culture that meets the Romantic Ideal was
emphasized by romantic nationalism; folklore evolved as a romantic nationalist nation.

5. CULTURAL NATIONALISM – The country is described by shared culture, not solely civic or ethnic. Chinese nationalism is an instance of cultural
nationalism, partially due to China’s many national minorities. Membership or citizenship in the nation is neither completely voluntary nor hereditary.
However, a traditional culture can be more readily integrated in the lives of any person, particularly if the person can obtain his or her abilities at an
early point of his or her own lives (Conversi, 2008). Cultural nationalism has been defined as a variety of non-civil or ethnic nationalism (Neilsen,
1999).

6. THIRD WORLD NATIONALISM – Nationalist feelings are the outcome of opposition to colonial rule to survive and maintain a domestic identity.

7. LIBERAL NATIONALISM – Is a kind of nationalism lately defended by political philosophers who thinks that a non-xenophobic form of nationalism
compatible with liberal values of liberty, tolerance, equality and individual rights can exist (Tamir, 1993, Kymlicka, 1995, Miller, 1995). It is asserted
that in order to lead meaningful, independent life, people need a national identity and those liberal democracies need domestic identity to work
correctly. Furthermore, liberal’s nationalists often defend the importance of domestic identity by stating that people need a domestic identity to lead
meaningful, independent life and that liberal democratic politics need domestic identity to work correctly. Historically, Ernest Renan and John Stuart
Mill are often thought to be early liberal nationalists.

8. RELIGIOUS NATIONALISM – Its connection to a specific religious faith, church, or affiliation. A shared religion contributes to a sense of domestic unity
and a mutual bond between the nation’s people. This connection can be divided into two dimensions; religion’s politicization and religion’s converse
effects on politics. In the former aspects, it can be seen that a shared religion contributes to a sense of domestic unity; a common bond between the
nation’s people. The support of a national identity, comparable to a shared ethnicity, language or culture, is another political element or religion. More
ideological is the impact of religion on politics, where present interpretations of religious concepts inspire political activism and action; for instance,
legislation is enacted to encourage stricter religious adherence.

9. PAN – NATIONALISM – Ethnic or cultural nationalism refers to a country that is itself a cluster of association ethnic and cultural communities (such as
Turkish peoples).

10. DIASPORA NATIONALISM – Diaspora is an ethnic population residing outside their traditional homelands. In this type of nationalism, there is a
nationalist sense, e.g. the Irish in the United States, the Jews in the United States and elsewhere, etc.

11. STATELESS NATIONALISM – On nationalist basis (e.g. the Catalans and Basques in Spain) an ethnic or cultural minority within a nation-state aims
independence.

12. NATIONAL CONSERVATISM – A political term, mainly used in Europe, to describe a version of conservatism that focuses more on domestic interests
than conventional conservatism, while not being unduly nationalist or pursuing a far-right agenda.

13. REVOLUTIONARY NATIONALISM – It is an ideological theory that calls for a domestic group united by a shared sense of intent and destiny, also
known as radical nationalism. This was ascribed firstly and strongly promulgated by Benito Musssolini to followers of revolutionary syndicalism. In
France and Italy at the start of 20th century this intellectual synthesis of “radical nationalism and dissident society” was created.

14. LEFT-WING NATIONALISM – Also known as socialist nationalism. It relates to any political movement combining left-wing or socialism with
nationalism. Notable examples include the 26 July Movement of Fidel Castro, which launched the Cubban Revolution in 1959 to oust the American-
backed Fulgencio Batista, Ireland’s Sinn Fein, Israel’s Labor Zionism and the African National Congress.
KINDS OF PATRIOTISM
“PATRIOTISM means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official, save exactly to the
degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to
oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country. In either event, it is unpatriotic not to tell
the truth, whether about the president or anyone else (Theodore Roosevelt).

1. PATRIOTISM OF DUTY – This includes fidelity to one’s nation through materials acts. This is military service patriotism and other selfless sacrifice
types. This is where patriotism becomes embodied and its ideals take praiseworthy particular actions.

2. PATRIOTISM OF AFFECTION – This is the patriotism of the heart. It is about one’s internal desire for his country’s well-being. The patriotism of
affection can be seen in the patriotism of duty, but it does not necessarily result in it; one can truly love his country and yet be a coward, just as one
can theoretically fulfil a patriotic duty and yet feel apathetic about the country’s welfare.

3. PATRIOTISM OF MANNERS – This is customs patriotism, written and unwritten. The patriotism of manners is to place one’s hand over the heart during
the national anthem. It can be performed by anyone without actually needing affection or duty patriotism. While the preceding types of patriotism
show, at least in part, the real beliefs and hopes of a person the patriotism of manners establishes mostly a set of protocols.
TYPES OF PATRIOTISM:
1. PERSONAL PATRIOTISM – Is emotional and voluntary. The patriots adhere to certain patriotic values, such as respect for the flag or the honoring of
veterans. Other expressions of personal patriotism include enlisting in the army, public service, and participation in the political process through
voting or other forms of activism.

2. OFFICIAL PATRIOTISM – Promoted by the government this has a high symbolic and ceremonial content. It is a logical consequence of the state itself,
which derives legitimacy from being the expression of the common good of the political community. National monuments, and veteran’s days and
commemoration ceremonies are typical examples. Often official patriotism is highly regulated by protocol, with specific methods for handling flags, or
specific pledges and displays of allegiance.
Henceforth, official patriotism relies heavily on symbolic acts, such as displaying the flag, singing the national anthem, saying a pledge,
participating in a peaceful mass rally, placing a patriotic bumper sticker on one’s vehicle, or any other way of publicly proclaiming allegiance to the
state.

3. SYMBOLIC PATRIOTISM – In wartime is intended to raise morale, in turn contributing to the war effort.
4. PEACETIME PATRIOTISM – Cannot be so easily linked to a measurable gain the state, but the patriot does not see it as inferior.

PART 03: REMINISCENCE OF OUR TRUE NATIONAL HEROES: EMULATES BY THE TRUE LEADERS/ POLICE OFFICER AS A PUBLIC
SERVANT
In order for the students or learner to appreciate and understand Philippine nationalism and patriotism in relation to police service: it is
important to recall the conditions prevailing in Asia, including the Philippines, during the lifetime of our National hero.

OPENING STATEMENT:
FRIST AND FOREMOST, EMERGING TRUE LEADERS INTERPRETS THE PAST WITH INSIGHT - We are the products of our
histories, as well as how we integrate those histories into our lives. While we don’t want to be chained to our pasts, we need to understand them in
order to appreciate the present. In other words, our present is the reflections of our past, but not the point, the express point that fixed thereof is true
leaders comprehend and interpret the past with insight why it was happen to us. For instance, what is the reason why our country colonized by the
Spaniards more than three hundred years? This means that the past is our prelude not as our present. In conclusion, this twenty-first century will be
one of responsibility-a century of maturity. You can become a change agent in the midst of a world in transition.

WITH THESE, let’s try to look at and recall our National heroes who done an extraordinary work, and who sacrifice their life and limbs for
the sake of our freedom that we gained, experiencing, and enjoying today. Together with their contribution, works, and influence from the past until
this present. With these excellent work, sacrifice, contribution and influence of our National Heroes serve as the role model that we can emulates or
imitates as a true police officer same time as a public servant. These are the real and true nationalistic and patriotic and extraordinary true leaders.
They show and express, comprehend and understand the essence and the true meaning of nationalism and patriotism. To sum up, if you don’t
comprehend or understand our past history you will leave behind. You just make gossip and asking a question what is happening around you.
IN FACT, there are five approaches in change, which can define a person, first is people watch things happen; second people let things
happen; third people ask “what happen? Fourthly, people defy what happens; and lastly, people make things happen. Note the first four are all
reaction, and the fifth is response. This will also express the difference between reactions from response. When we say reactions, it denotes and
indicates the expression of people about change. In short, in reaction, people just watch, allowed, ignore, ignorance, and no idea what is happening
around them. And these people are it seems no concern in their surroundings. Whereas, response, there is a huge different from reaction. The big
difference is in response, people are proactive with the change. When we say proactive, they will not ignore, watch, allowed the change they will
interpret the change with insights or understanding and make the change as a friend not an enemy. In short, change is an opportunity to them to
move for advance, growth, development, and maturity.
PURPOSE OF REMINISCENCE OF OUR HISTORY
We as an emerging true leader know and comprehend the past with understanding. True leaders interpret the past history with
understanding why it was happen to us. For instance, in the period of our colonization from the invaders foreign countries that colonizes our country.
True leaders; comprehend the purpose and the reason why we were colonized by the foreign country. In essence, true police officers, knows the
implication, meaning and application of the exceptional work of our national heroes. They understand their position and stand in emulating the
contribution, services, sacrifice, wisdom and work our true national heroes.
Take note: Our history did not start during and after colonization. And colonization is not part of our history. The point that I want to
express therein is that the reason and purpose why it was happen to us. Why we are colonized from the invaders country? In essence we need
insights on the reason and purpose why were colonized. Our real and true history is who we are when our country is free from invaders country. This
is why the purpose of bringing to mind our history is not just to recall what was happen to us through information. The real and true purpose of
reminiscence of our history is so that we will go back to our original design identity as a Maharlikano and Maharlikana when our country is still free
from the invaders country. As Hegel said “We learn from history that we do not learn from history”. Meanwhile, let’s explore some of our true
National Heroes. We can emulate their sacrifice, contribution, service, works, sacrifice and the like.

1. JOSE RIZAL - Are commonly acclaimed to be nationalistic heroes of the Philippines and referred to as the “Father of Filipino Nationalism” and the
First Filipino”, not because he helped establish an independent Philippine state (in fact, he specifically and explicitly denounced the 1896 Revolution
against Spain), but because he was instrumental in the creation of the conceptualization of “Filipino” as an ethno political collective – as “A
PEOPLE”, or, in the language of nationalism and patriotism “the people”.
DR. JOSE P. RIZAL, June 19, 1861 – December 30, 1896. His real name is Jose Protasio Rizal Mercado y Alonso Realonda. Accordingly, some
historians assert that Dr. Jose P. Rizal is descendants of the Tagean/ Tallano family. A royal family who owns the Philippines (Maharlika) island
known before as Kingdom of Maharlika.
FATHER OF FILIPINO NATIONALISM - FOR SEVERAL REASONS: “PEARL OF THE ORIENT”
1. First, Dr. Rizal himself was very much interested in the history of this part of the world.
2. Second, this year 1961 has been proclaimed by the President of the Philippines as the Rizal Centenary Year, for our hero was born in 1861.
3. Third, if Rizal were alive today, he would have been happy to receive an invitation to attend our Conference because our hero was the organizer
of the International Association of Filipinists in Europe in 1889.
4. Fourth, Dr. Rizal has been ranked by his biographers, both Filipinos and foreigners, as one of the great intellectual leaders of Asia, together with
Mahatma Gandhi of India and Dr. Sun Yat-sen of China.
5. Lastly, Dr. Rizal visited this city of Singapore no less than three times in the course of his many travels to foreign lands.
TAKE NOTE: R. A. NO. 1425 – An act to include in the curricula of all public and private schools, colleges and universities courses on the
life, works and writings of Jose Rizal, particularly his novel Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo authorizing the printing and distribution thereof,
and for other purposes.

2. SULTAN KUDARAT - Also commonly acclaimed to be nationalistic heroes of the Philippines. His firm stance and dedication against Spanish
colonial forces who were attempting to take over his Muslim kingdom in Mindanao during the 17th century. Both Rizal and Kudarat that contribute to
their “heroic” status and in spite of their differences they both portray beliefs that contribute to the construction of a national identity for the
Philippines. MUHAMMAD DIPATUAN KUDARAT also known as (SULTAN KUDARAT) – Of Magindanao (1581 – 1671) Angkan Shariff
Kabungsuwan. He known as “Alagad ng Pananampalataya”. Also commonly acclaimed to be nationalistic heroes of the Philippines. His firm stance
and dedication against Spanish colonial forces who were attempting to take over his Muslim kingdom in Mindanao during the 17th century. Both
Rizal and Kudarat that contribute to their “heroic” status and in spite of their differences they both portray beliefs that contribute to the construction of
a national identity for the Philippines.
(Reminders: Please read some other books or resources of your additional information)

3. ANDRES BONIFACIO – Andres Bonifacio y de Castro was a Filipino revolutionary leader and the president of the Tagalog Republic. He is often
called “The Father of the Philippine Revolution. Born: 30 November 1863, Tondo. Died: 10 May 1897, Maragondon. Full name: Andres Bonifacio y
de Castro. Vice President: Gregoria de Jesus.
WHAT MAKES ANDRES BONIFACIO A HERO?
He fought for our independence and freedom. He showed that great things can achieved if people work together towards the same goal.
He is the epitome of courage and perseverance – traits that Filipinos (Maharlikano/a) are still known for. His heroism filled the hearts of his men then,
and it should fill ours today. Supremo Andres Bonifacio founder the Kataas-taasang, Kagalang-galangang Katipunan ng mga Anak ng Bayan or KKK
played a huge role in the revolt of the Filipinos against the Spaniards. Through the KKK, Bonifacio was able to unite eight provinces in pursuing
independence and freedom. Batangas, Laguna, Cavite, Manila, Bulacan, Tarlac, Pampanga and Nueva Ecija now represent the eight rays of the sun
of our National flag.
Furthermore, he fought for our independence and freedom. He shows a prototype and epitome of courage and perseverance – traits that
Filipinos are still known for. His heroism filled the hearts of his men then, and it should fill ours todays.

4. APOLINARIO MABINI – July 23, 1864 – May 13, 1903. He is known as “Dakilang Lumpo or Sublime Paralytic”. And Utak ng Himagsikan or
brains of the revolution. He wrote the first Philippine Constitution. 39 El Verdadero Decalogo El Simil De Alejandro. Apolinario Mabini y Maranan was
a Filipino revolutionary leader, educator, lawyer, and statesman who served first as a legal and constitutional adviser to the Revolutionary
Government, and then as the first Prime Minister of the Philippines upon the establishment of the First Philippine Republic.
Apolinario Mabini was most active in the revolution in 1898, when he served as the chief adviser for General Aguinaldo. He drafted
decrees and crafted the first ever constitution in Asia for the First Philippine Republic, including the framework of the revolutionary government which
was implemented in Malolos in 1899. He provided the ideological backbone of the Philippines as a nation. Even after he resigned from his Chief
Minister post, he continued his battle using his mighty pen to rally Filipinos behind the Aguinaldo government in the pursuit of nationhood and self-
government. "His policy throughout the struggle can be epitomized by a statement in that decree: "The first duty of the government is to interpret the
popular will faithfully."Mabini was also instrumental in supervising the proper administration of justice, the election of delegates to the revolutionary
congress, and the establishment of the mechanism of the revolutionary government itself." His devotion and spirit that he endured through his life
ultimately led towards setting the Philippines free of Spanish control. With devotion and spirit; to set his country free, Apolinario Mabini is a hero to
remember and to emulate as a true leader.
The truth is Emilio Aguinaldo is the real traitor who betrays Apolinario Mabini. According to some historian, Emilio Aguinaldo is connected
to Cojuangco-Aquino Family who wants to controls our country on that time until now. This ambitious family always attempting and trying to control
our county but they are always frustrated until now. But let’s consider and look into its reason and purpose.

5. GABRIELA SILANG - (1731-1763) She rallied fighting forces (including the native Itneg people) to carry on the war against Spain in their home
province of Ilocos, launching guerrilla attacks against Spanish garrisons — attacks that caused Spanish soldiers to fear her name. Gabriela Silang is
perhaps the most well-known among all the Filipino heroines, but she is almost always mentioned in tandem with her husband, Diego Silang. Since
their achievements are usually written about together, many forget that she had her own fair share of heroic acts as “the first Filipina to lead an
uprising against a foreign power.” Silang was a fearless Ilocaña warrior who assumed her husband’s role as commander of rebel troops after his
assassination in 1763.
For her final battles at the liberation of Vigan, she led over 2,000 men to go against an army of over 6,000 Spanish soldiers backed by
powerful artillery. The battle proved unsuccessful for the General, so she and 80 remaining troops retreated to unexplored regions of Abra, where
they were eventually captured. The Spanish made her witness the public executions of her men before publicly hanging the General herself in
September 1763. Despite the loss, Gabriela Silang is still recognized for her immense courage in fighting for the independence of IIocos.
TRIVIA: Gabriela Silang was widowed twice in her lifetime. At 20, she was forced to marry a wealthy old man who passed away after three
years. It was after his death that she met Diego Silang, who was a mail carrier at the time.

POST STATEMENT: These aforementioned true national heroes that we discussed are the prototype and epitome of courage and true
freedom fighter. Take note, “courage is the ability to stand up in the face of fear. In fact, it is impossible to have courage without fear”. Fear begets
ignorance, ignorance begets lack of knowledge, and lack of knowledge begets guessing. Lastly, guessing begets loss of directions of your journey.
In other words, fear is not about the feeling and fearing of the unseen and unknown living things (Unseen spirits). Fear means is the lack or without
knowledge and wisdom. This is the causes and reason of why people fear is the lack or even without wisdom. And to combat fear is courage.
Because the reason why you have courage is because of you have fear. Moreover, the opposite of fear is the knowledge about truth. Why, because
freedom is anchored in the knowledge of truth.
These true national heroes choose and decided to pursue and discover the knowledge of truth. This truth makes and set us free from the
bondage. We gain and reclaim our true freedom. Through their indisputable, exceptional and irrefutable or undeniable works and sacrifice. These
extraordinary people leave a legacy until now. Legacy is living beyond your grave. They fulfill their purpose in life, dreams, aspiration, assignment,
and vision. They die empty. It equates on the principles go like this; “the greatest tragedy in life is not death, but life without purpose”. Dying is not
the reaching of old age and maturity. Death is the fulfillment of your purpose. Furthermore, it linked also on the principles with this; “Do not die old,
die empty”. This means that it’s like a cup full of offering (potential) you pour all it out what inside, there is nothing left and you’re ready to die. It is
finished. That’s the goal of life, to die empty not to die old and full. This is the reason why I ask you the question on the preceding learning modules
that; how can you (true leader) rest in peace if you died with all your potential inside?. Rest means you have done and fullfill your purpose before you
die. That’s why “rest in peace”. It’s a peaceful and happy to die if you fulfill your purpose in life. You pour all it out your potential, the best thing inside
of you. Remember, the future is not ahead of you its trapped within you.
This is how these extraordinary national heroes dies. They pour out it all their potential, dreams, aspiration, purpose and vision and life.
They live for others not only for themselves. This also equates on the principles go like this; “make other people greater than yourself, they will call
your name everyday, and you will live forever”. That’s a leagcy. True leaders never live for themselves, they live for others and for next generation.
Why we don’t forget them, why we call their name everyday, why we keep studying their sacrifice, works and writing, because they leave a legacy.
They live forever. They gone physically but their legacy is still alive. That the essence and concept, principles and meaning of true leadership.

6. FORMER PRESIDENT FERDINAND MARCOS – Take note: If you will agree with me, this former exceptional and extraordinary political leader
of our country is still under scrutiny or question, if he is consider as one of our national hero. There is no yet book or laws declaring as national hero.
It is only in the mind of the Filipino people.
BUT REMEMBER: This President one thing for sure, he is the real and true man of Democracy and true Freedom. Let’s try to scrutinize
the listed facts in Taglish below “KINGDOM OF MAHARLIKA.”

IN CONCLUSION:
If you want to be successful, do not seek success, but seek to become a person of value. Value means more on the concepts of becoming
yourself through self-manifestation. Rediscovering your gifts and potential. It equates on the principles go like this; the value of a things is depend on
its rarity. Why the gold, diamond, silver and the like are valuable? Beacuase they are rare. The same with your value, do not seek a rocks, take note
rocks is everwhere. In other words, we’re all unique. UNIQUENESS means self-discovery or to become yourself that no one can replace and
duplicate it by any other person. Uniqueness means you have something to offer. When you know and understand your uniqueness you know how
to humble. I never meet a person who plan to be failure. I never meet a students who go to school and said I want to be a became failure. We all
wants to be successful in life.

A SYMBOL OF PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM: HOW TO DISPLAY THE PHILIPPINE FLAG

On JUNE 12, 1898, following the proclamation of independence from SPAIN, the PHILIPPINE FLAG was formally presented to the people. It
was waved at the balcony of AGUINALDO'S RESIDENCE IN KAWIT, CAVITE as the MARCHA NACIONAL FILIPINA played.
But, did you know that JUNE 12, 1898 wasn't the first day that the Filipino people saw the tri-color flag? On MAY 28, 1898, days after the return
of General Emilio Aguinaldo from exile in Hong Kong, our troops unfurled the Philippine flag as a revolutionary standard during a battle against
Spanish forces in ALAPAN, CAVITE.
After a number of executive orders throughout our history, we are now CELEBRATING FLAG DAYS FROM MAY 28 TO JUNE 12. As issued by
PRESIDENT FIDEL V. RAMOS through E.O. 179 IN 1994, all Filipinos are encouraged to display the Philippine flag in all offices, agencies, and instruments
of government, business establishments, schools, and private homes throughout this period.
Following this order, the Philippine Congress approved on FEBRUARY 12, 1998 THE "FLAG AND HERALDIC CODE OF THE PHILIPPINES"
which calls for the reverence and respect that shall be accorded to the flag and other national symbols. It also prescribes the proper display of the
Philippine flag especially on Flag Days.

PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM IS ALIVE IN THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF FILIPINOS
These days, although it is often said that patriotism is “more words than actions,” it does live still in the hearts and minds of many Filipinos,
young and old alike. Take those who are abroad. Majority of them are truly proud Filipinos. You can tell this by how they act and introduce
themselves before other nationals. Like the people of Mindanao who are very expressive of their love for the region, the country and the flag, for
which they are willing to sacrifice life. In relation to the ongoing dispute with China over the West Philippine Sea, there may not be much talk about it
in our streets. But it may be because of the citizens’ lack of awareness and understanding of the issue.
Maybe it is high time we created some “noise” and join hands to show support for our country in an act of patriotism. I guess we can start
by preferring Filipino products to imported goods especially those coming from China. It is one of the best ways to express unity and solidarity with
the nation.
WHAT’S THE BEST THAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR OUR COUNTRY?” HERE ARE THEIR RESPONSES
1. Be proud of being a Filipino - 6. Help victims of calamities -
2. Give respect - 7. Save electricity –
3. Study our history; teach it to others - 8. Pick up litter -
4. Do good or well in school – 9. Grow up -
5. Pray for the nation, embrace our culture – 10. Make the right decisions -

professionalism and courage. The PC has carved out a large part of the glorious pages of Philippine history, as attested by its proudly and
deservedly garnering 86 of the 92 "MEDALS OF VALOR" the highest honor that a grateful Filipino nation can
bestow on its gallant sons in the service of the Republic. Most appropriately therefore, the Philippine Constabulary

nationalization of the country's local police forces. 

THREE STARS - LUZON, VISAYAS AND MINDANAO AND THE 1,700 ISLANDS and the territorial integrity

creativity, resourcefulness, and industry.

we have for they are our treasure. We have to keep them for the future generation.

be Filipinos. Stand united! Do something to help each other and for the greater good for mother country. Love everyone and love our country as we

HOW TO BE FILIPINO PATRIOTIC AND NATIONALISTICS

PATRIOTISM and NATIONALISM runs deeper than flag lapels and bumper stickers. If you want to learn what patriotism means and how to
develop your own sense of patriotism for your country, you can learn how to get more involved.

A. HOW TO BE FILIPINO NATIONALISTICS

1. LEARN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM (UNDERSTANDING PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM) - Nationalism refers to a blind
belief that one's nation or cultural heritage is superior to others, while patriotism refers to a feeling of admiration for a particular belief or way of life.
The two terms are often used interchangeably, and it's important to distinguish patriotism for what it is.

2. UNDERSTAND HOW PATRIOTISM IS USED - Patriotism is one of the most common beliefs manipulated in propaganda. Patriotic values and rhetoric is
commonly subverted by those who try to manipulate certain beliefs or behaviors. The word "PATRIOT" and "PATRIOTISM" is often used as a
bludgeon to question someone's commitment and love for their country in a way that's actually more akin to nationalism.

3. LEARN ABOUT WHERE YOU LIVE - Discover the history of your nation and how it grew to be what it is today. Find facts that surprise you, challenge
you, make you laugh or make you proud. Try finding more about your country's past leaders, flag, national animal, famous landmarks, gastronomy,
traditions, films, literature. Learn everything and anything unique to your nation.

4. LEARN ABOUT YOUR CULTURAL AND NATURAL HISTORY AS WELL - QUESTIONS. What people were native to the lands that are now your country? What
grows there? What animals call it home? Learn everything you can about the place you call home.

5. UNDERSTAND THE HISTORY OF OTHER COUNTRIES AS WELL - Just as it's important to get a good sense of the land you call home, it's important to get
a good sense of the land your neighbors call home as well. Learn your country's place in the world.
B. HOW TO BE FILIPINO PATRIOTIC
1. STAY INFORMED. Learning the history of your country is helpful, but it's also important to stay up to date on what your country is doing in the here
and now. Your nation may be quite old, with a rich history, as in the case of Japan or France, or relatively new, with a fresh sense of self, as in the
case of the United States.

2. KEEP YOUR GOVERNMENT HONEST AS FAR AS IS POSSIBLE. Who is making the decisions in your country? Do you agree or disagree with the
direction in which your country is headed? If you feel patriotic about your country, make it your goal to get involved and understand what's going on.

3. PARTICIPATE IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT. If you care about the place you live, get involved on the local level. Vote locally if you participate in a direct or
representative democracy system, or otherwise find a way to let your voice is heard. Talk to your town leaders or elders, and find out who makes the
decisions around you.

4. LOOK AT ISSUES FROM BOTH SIDES. Increasingly, it can be difficult to find "objective" information. Everything seems to have a bias to it, and it can
be hard to know what perspective you're actually reading.
5. DISPLAY YOUR PRIDE, IF YOU WANT TO. If you feel like showing your patriotism with dress, bumper stickers, flags, and other displays, then go for it.
National holidays and other important dates in your nation's history are great times to let everyone know where you come from and how proud you
are of it.

6. LOVE YOUR COUNTRY WITH OPEN EYES. Every country has positive qualities and negative qualities, and no one national identity is superior to
another. Loving a nation doesn't mean you should ignore or stay silent about its failures. It is important to be informed. It's also perfectly acceptable
PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 21 OF 39
to love your country for its cultural heritage, its successes, and its unique character, in spite of its shortcomings by emphasizing the positive and
working towards a better future for all who call your nation home.

IN SUMMARY
The nation's development is our gift for the next generation, something that makes them proud as a citizen of a great country like the
republic of the Philippines as well as the rest of the nations of the world.

PART 07: DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOVEREIGNTY AND INDEPENDENCE

SOVEREIGNTY – Is concept that state or governing body has the right and power to govern itself without outside interference and condition of a
nation, country, or state which exercises self-government, and usually sovereignty, over the territory.
INDEPENDENCE – Freedom from outside control or support: the state of being independent. The time when a country or region gains political
freedom from outside control (Webster). Independence comes from a nice Medieval French word, “depenre”, meaning “to hang from,” or “to hang
down.” The “in” at the beginning is Latin for “not,” so the word originally meant “not hanging from,” which is a neat description of what countries
achieve by throwing off their colonizers. NOTE: Independence is not true freedom. We will discuss this into details as we go on.

DEFINITION OF ALLEGIANCE (Webster)

ALLEGIANCE – The fidelity owed by a subject or citizen to a sovereign or government. The obligation of an alien (naturalize citizen) to the government
under which the alien resides.
FIDELITY – Loyalty, faithfulness, reliability, trustworthiness, dependability, devotion, commitment, and/or conformity.
ORIGIN OF ALLEGIANCE – 1350-1400; Middle English “aliegiaunce,” equivalent to a-probably a- + liege liege + - aunce-ance; compare Middle
French ligeance. This means “ties or obligation of a citizen or subject to a government or sovereign.” Formed in English from Anglo-French legaunce
“loyalty of a liege-man to his lord,” from old French legeance, from liege.
PLEDGE – A serious promise or agreement, the state of being held as a security or guaranty.

CITIZENSHIP - Citizenship is a term denoting membership of a citizen in a political society, which membership implies, reciprocally, a duty of
allegiance on the part of the member and duty of protection on the part of the state.
Citizen is a person having the title of citizenship. He is the member of a democratic community who enjoy full civil and political rights, and
is accorded protection inside and outside the territory of the state.
CITIZENSHIP AND CITIZEN DISTINGUISHED FROM NATIONALITY AND NATIONAL
From the point of view of international law, “citizenship” and “citizen” do not exactly mean the same as “nationality” and “national”. The
national of a Sate include not only its citizens who enjoy full civil and political privileges but also all others who are not its citizens, but because they
owe allegiance to it, are not regarded as aliens. While all citizens are nationals of a State, not all nationals are citizens of a state.
MEANING OF SUBJECT AND ALIEN
A citizen is a member of a democratic community who enjoys full civil and political rights. In Monarchial Sate, He is often called Subject.
An alien is a citizen of a country who is residing in or passing through another country. He is a popularly called “foreigner.” He is not given the full
rights to citizenship but entitled to receive protection as to his person or property.
GENERAL WAYS OF ACQUIRING CITIZENSHIP
1. INVOLUNTARY METHOD – By birth, because of blood relationship or place of birth.
2. VOLUNTARY METHOD – By naturalization, except in case of collective naturalization of the inhabitants of a territory which takes place when it is
ceded by one state to another as a result of a conquest or treaty.
WHAT ARE THE MODES IN ACQUIRING PHILIPPINE CITIZENSHIP?
1. FILIPINO BY BIRTH/ NATURAL BORN FILIPINO
A. JUS SOLI (right of soil) which is the legal principle that a person’s nationality at birth is determined by the place of birth (e.g. the territory of a given
state)
B. JUS SANGUINIS (right of blood) which is the legal principle that, at birth, an individual acquires the nationality of his/her natural parent/s. The
Philippine adheres to this principle.

2. FILIPINO BY NATURALIZATION / NATURALIZED CITIZEN – Which is the judicial act of adopting a foreigner and clothing him with the privileges of a
native- born citizen. It implies the renunciation of a former nationality and the fact of entrance into a similar relation towards a new body.
CLASSIFICATION OF FILIPINO CITIZENS
(Article IV, Section 1, Philippine Constitution)
1. Those who are citizens of the Philippines at the time of the adoption of this Constitution;
2. Those whose fathers or mothers are citizens of the Philippines;
3. Those born before January 17, 1973, of Filipino mothers, who elect Philippine citizenship upon reaching the age of majority; and
4. Those who are naturalized in accordance with law.
IDEALS POLICY ON NATURALIZATION
The policy on naturalization should be guided by our own national interest. Perhaps the ideal is that only those who have come to love the
country, who have integrated themselves into the citizenry and who can contribute to the development of the nation should be conferred citizenship
by naturalization.
NATURALIZATION is the act of formally adopting a foreigner into the political body of the state and clothing him with the rights and privilege
of citizenship. It implies the renunciation of a former nationality and the fact of entrance to a similar relation towards a new body politic.
NATURE OF NATURALIZATION
An alien does not have a natural, inherent or vested fight to be admitted to citizenship in a state. Citizenship is a matter of grace, favor or
privilege which a sovereign government may confer on, or withhold from, an alien or grant to him under such conditions as it sees fit without the
support of any reason whatsoever.
Citizenship in our republic be it even most powerful nation if the world, can take such citizenship for granted or assume it as a matter of
right. In view of the above principles, the rule is that in case of doubt concerning the grant of citizenship, such doubt be resolved in favor of the state
and against the applicant for naturalization.
THREE (3) WAYS OF ACQUIRING BY NATURALIZATION
1. BY JUDGEMENT OF THE COURT - The foreigner who wants to become a Filipino citizen must apply for naturalization with the proper Regional Trial
Court / Court of First Instance. The Revise Naturalization Act is the present naturalization law. Such law shall also continue in force pursuant to the
transitory provision of the Constitution (Art. XVIII, Sec. 3.);
PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 22 OF 39
2. BY DIRECT ACT OF CONGRESS – In this case our law – making body simply enacts an act directly conferring citizenship to a foreigner.

3. BY ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDING- Under R.A 9139, known as the Administrative Naturalization Law of 2000, “aliens born and residing in the
Philippines may be granted Philippine citizenship by administrative proceedings before a special committee in naturalization. The petition for
citizenship shall be filled with the committee which has the power to approve, deny or reject application as provided in the law.

proper civil registry.
3. By direct act of congress

A. Are candidates for or are occupying any public office in the country of which they are naturalized citizens; and/ or

WHAT US THE EFFECT OF MARRIAGE OF A CITIZEN TO AN ALIEN?

by his or her husband’s or wife’s country.

country.
3. If a Filipino woman marries an alien and acquires her husband’s citizenship, she will possess two citizenships, Philippine citizenship and that of
her husband.
WHAT IS AN ALLEGIANCE?
Allegiance is loyalty owed by a person to his state. Section 5 prohibits more particularly naturalized Filipinos from practicing what is called
“dual allegiance” declaring it inimical to national interests. Note that what section 5 prohibits is not dual citizenship but dual allegiance of citizens.
Dual citizenship refer to the possession of two citizenship by an individual, that of his original citizenship and that of the country where he
became a naturalized citizen. It arises because our laws cannot control laws of other states on citizenship but dual allegiance can be a matter of
personal choice or decision.
WHAT ARE THE DUTIES AND OBLIGATION OF THE CITIZENS?
1. TO BE LOYAL TO THE REPUBLIC – Loyalty implies faith and confidence in the republic and love and devotion to the country. The citizen must be
proud of his country, its customs, traditions, language, and institutions. He must share in its glories and feel sad in its misfortunes. It is the “home of
our people, the seat of our affections and the source of our happiness and well-being.”

2. TO DEFEND THE SATE – Men may differ and do differ on religious beliefs and creeds, government policies, the wisdom and validity of laws, even the
correctness or judicial decisions and decrees, but in field of love of country, national unity, and patriotism, they can hardly afford to differ for these
are matters in which they are mutually and vitally interested, for to them they mean national existence or survival as a nation or national extinction.

3. TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT AND WELFARE IF THE STATE – The development and welfare of the state should be the concern of every
citizen for he will be the first to enjoy the benefits thereof. Anything that affects him individually and personally. He is affected by its ills and disorder,
growth and stability.

4. TO UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION AND OBEY THE LAWS – It is the shrine for all the hopes and visions for our nation. Laws are enacted in accordance
with it for the good of all. It is therefore the duty of every citizen to defend and respect the constitution and obey the laws. If the people would
disregard them, the government would collapse, and this would mean lawlessness and the disintegration of the social order. The constitution
contains provisions designed to insure that is the accord.

5. TO COOPERATE WITH THE DULY CONSTITUTED AUTHORITIES – The larger interest of the group and the nation that he must serve necessarily involve
his own. And he would be recreant to the claims of that interest if he did not actively concern himself with the affairs of his government. It is not
enough for example that a citizen should take care that in his daily life he does not violate any of the multitudinous rules.

6. TO EXERCISE RIGHTS RESPONSIVELY WITH DUE REGARD TO THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS – Society is composed of men, each with interest of his own. In
the course of life, the interest of man conflict with those of many others. Amidst the continuous clash on interest, the ruling social philosophy should
be that, in the ultimate social order, the welfare of every man depends upon the welfare of all.

7. TO ENGAGE IN GAINFUL WORK – Employment is not the obligation solely of the state. Every citizen should consider it his own responsibility and
should strive to become a useful and productive member of society to assure not only himself but, perhaps, more important, his family a life worthy of
human dignity.

8. TO REGISTER AND VOTE – Suffrage is both a privilege and duty which every qualified citizen must perform. It is through suffrage that the will of the
people is expressed. The quality of public official of the government, depend, direct or indirectly, upon the voters.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STATE AND A NATION
Although they do not refer to the same things, the words "nation" and "country" are often intertwined. Etymology, ‘NATION’ derived from
the Latin word, ‘NATIO’, which means a ‘SET OF PEOPLE’. STATE is a word that has been derived from the Latin’s ‘STATUS’, which means
‘STATUS’ OR ‘CONDITION’. The states together form a nation. However, a state will have a separate political entity within a nation. Though the
states have their own rules, and can also bring in new laws, they must adhere to the national laws. The states cannot frame a law that is of no
interest to the nation.
TERRITORY
A STATE is comprised of four elements: government, territory, population, and sovereignty. If one element is absent, it disqualifies the
area from being called a state. However, a NATION can be defined as a population who shares a similar culture and ideals. A NATION is formed as
a result of a common race, religion, language, territory, history, culture or political aspirations. These elements are not essential and are ever-
changing.
POLITICAL AND SOCIAL ORGANIZATION
STATE - Is a politic term and refers to an area that is organized for the security of people. It is a legal entity with human actions. On the contrary, a
nation tends to focus less on the people’s physical needs and more on metaphorical or emotional terms.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GOVERNMENT, STATE AND A NATION
1. GOVERNMENT- Government is the system or group of people governing an organized community, often a state.
2. STATE- A nation or territory considered as an organized political community under one government.
3. NATION- A large aggregate of people united by common descent, history, culture, or language, inhabiting a particular country or territory.
IN SUMMARY
1. A state is sometimes used as a synonym for nation or country.
2. States together, form a nation.
3. A nation can be defined as a politico-cultural entity, which is identified by its unique character and collective rights. On the contrary, a state can be
defined as a politico-judicial entity, which is identified by its sovereign rights.
4. A nation can be defined as group of people who are bound together into a single body, through history, customs, value, language, culture,
tradition, art and religion. A state can be defined as a patch of land with a sovereign government.
5. A nation can be referred to as the holder of sovereignty.
6. Policies pertaining to national interest are taken by the government at the national level, but the state governments cannot formulate such policies.

THE 1987 CONSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES

PREAMBLE
We, the sovereign Filipino people, imploring the aid of Almighty God, in order to build a just and humane society, and establish a
Government that shall embody our ideals and aspirations, promote the common good, conserve and develop our patrimony, and secure to
ourselves and our posterity, the blessings of independence and democracy under the rule of law and a regime of truth, justice, freedom, love,
equality, and peace, do ordain and promulgate this Constitution. SO HELP ME GOD.
SANATE BILL 1091 (SENATOR VILLAR) - EXPLANATORY NOTE OF THE PREAMBLE IN CONNECTIONS TO PHILIPPINE PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM OF
THE FILIPINO AS THEIR PATRIMONY
The preamble of the Constitution provides that we should establish a Government which shall "conserve and develop our
patrimony." Our "PATRIMONY" includes our public forests, mangroves, wildlife, and flora and fauna which should be conserved, protected and
renewed. It is a mechanism to help the sustainable development of the Philippine environment. It provides for a classification and percentage
allocation of public forests. Protected public forests are envisioned to comprise at least sixty percent of all public forests. Production forests
are proposed to comprise hot more than twenty percent and agro-forestry projects to cover not more than twenty percent of public forests. It
is estimated that there are about 15 million hectares of public forest land. The objective of this bill is to rehabilitate public forest lands and
revert areas 'presently denuded and eroded to become living thriving forest reserves. The dismal condition of our public forests today is a sad
reflection of the wanton mistreatment and exploitative utilization we have inflicted on our forest resources. Ideally, our reforestation rate
should be at least five times our deforestation rate and should surpass deforestation within the next five years. This we can do by embarking
on a massive reforestation program and rehabilitation of our forest lands.
DEFINITION OF FAMILY
FAMILY – A group of individuals living together under one roof, usually under one head.
Family came from the Greek word – Oikos which means a dwelling, a house, to dwell, “at home”. In Hebrew – “Bayity” – meaning lineage,
household, including servants and dependents – home.
ALSO FAMILY – A dwelling created as result of marriage between a male and female, who become parents that produce or adopt
children committed to parental care and nurturing of the same to re-produce themselves in character, values, and conviction through love,
discipline and example.
TEN (10) FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF THE FAMILY:
1. The family is the foundational unit for reproduction, because it is the only qualified unit for effective and total development.
2. The family is the prototype of the society. 7. The family is not a product of the state.
3. Society is only as strong as the family. 8. The family produced the state.
4. Society is a reflection of the condition of the family. 9. The dissolution of the family is the dissolution of society.
5. The purpose of the family is to secure society. 10. It is illegal custody when the state becomes the parent.
6. The sanctity of the family is the bedrock for human survival.
TWO (2) MAIN TYPES OF FAMILY
1. Immediate family – May include spouses, parents, brothers, sisters, sons and daughters.
2. Extended family – May include grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces, and siblings – in-law. Sometimes these are also
considered members of the immediate family, depending on an individual’s specific relationship with them.
PART 08: ORIGINAL FILIPINO (MAHARLIKAN) TRAITS BEFORE THE SPANISH REGIME OR COLONIZATION
A. UNDERSTANDING TRAITS, CULTURE AND CHARACTER
Traits are quality that makes one person or thing different from another (Webster dictionary), a distinguishing quality and an inherited
characteristic. Another term for inherited means hereditary, genetic, natural, innate or built-in. This implies that, traits are not to be bestowed, grant,
give or even demanded. Moreover, culture is not in the land, rather is in the people. We lost our original true Filipino identity because of the influence
of colonization. But we can reclaim and regain it back that is when we acknowledge and understand our history and its insight. Nowadays, one of the
characteristics of an emerging leader interprets the past with insight. Our true concepts of our true identity as a Filipino people or citizen from the
beginning must be revealed. Otherwise we will continue to experience oppression, loss of true identity and we will not attained or achieve the true
meaning of freedom. And true responsibility freedom is the source of true being nationalistic and patriotic. Let’s us go back to our history and its
interpretation insight today. And when we say interpretation insight, its results, both positive and negative influence, effect and or impact. As
exceptional, and extraordinary leaders say “Not every change are for our improvement, but without change there can be no improvement,
development and advancement”.
Filipinos has one of the best traits in the entire world or globe one of you must know. Although they have been colonized by several
countries, core values from their ancestors remained intact and are still applied up to this time. Filipinos are not perfect, but they have a great
characteristics and qualities every one of them must be proud of. Some of these are either positive or negative.
THE FOLLOWING ARE SOME ORIGINAL TRAITS, CULTURE, AND CHARACTERISTICS OF FILIPINO (MAHARLIKAN’S) PEOPLE
BEFORE THE SPANISH REGIME OR COLONIZATION
1. HOSPITABLE – This is one of the most popular qualities of Filipinos. Foreigners who have gone to the Philippines (Maharlika) find themselves
falling in love for their hospitality. It’s a different kind of values which already existed thousands of years ago. Examples of hospitality that they show
not only to foreigners but to their fellow citizens as well. When one visits a friend’s house, they greet them with a very warm welcome. They let their
visitor sit down and prepare them a meal or a snack plus drinks for them. They may not want you leave the house with an empty stomach. They
make sure you had a great time visiting them.
They offer their guest room to their visitors if they’re going to spend the night with them. Meals offered are very special, if not, they make a
way to prepare great tasting food that their visitor wanted to eat.

PAGE 25 OF 39
2. RESPECTFUL – This is often observed not just from younger people but also from older ones. Children’s respect elders by saying “po” and “opo”
which means “yes” when answering their elders. Children or young adults also show respect by putting their elder’s hands on their forehead.
Filipinos also show respect at work by making a bow to their employers when they’re around.

3. STRONG FAMILY TIES AND RELIGIOUS – Yes. Filipinos value their families so much that they tend to be so intact. They go to church and pray
together because their religion is important making God as the center of their life. They have quality time together especially after a day’s work. Just
watching television or eating together is one great quality they value most.

4. GENEROSITY AND HELPFUL – This is observed when one person has nothing and they tend to share what they have to them. During special
occasions such as birthdays or “fiestas” – a celebration when people from other places visit your place to celebrate with you, there are lots of foods
specially prepared for everyone! It maybe your friend, family, a friend of your friends or even stranger can gather and they are willing to share foods.
When a neighbor is in trouble, they are always ready to help them.

5. HARDWORKING – Yes, they are hardworking people to the fact that they are willing to work several time to almost whole day just to feed their
families. That’s how Filipinos are. One example of a hardworking person is a farmer, they earn so little but still they tend to work very hard for few
bucks. Filipinos always find ways to earn for a living like putting up a small business from their home wherein they sell foods or other items for the
convenient of their neighbors as well.

6. LOVING AND CARE – This is so true! Filipinos are the sweetest and loving people in the world or globe. We don’t know why, we not saying this
because we are Filipino but dude, got to know them well. Men are so sweet and romantic when it comes to love, they will send you followers, bring
you to a very romantic place, they chat or text you sweet quotes and often tell you how special you are to them.
Filipino women are also romantic and very caring, that makes foreigners want to marry a kind like them. Women tend to prepare dinner
before their husband comes home. They are so loving that they value the relationship which make them so faithful to their husband. And they will
love you for the fullest. Note: pls. research some more traits and habits of FP.
B. SOME NEGATIVE TRAITS OF FILIPINOS
Below are the lists of some negative traits of Filipinos. These negative traits of Filipino people can be change. It depends on the concepts,
perception and interpretation of insight which was based on the relevant empirical truth that may callout and scrutinize from our past history. It is best
to say that we don’t want to sound so arrogant, Filipinos are not perfect and we have some traits which really represent what some Filipinos are.
Empirically, some reasons of these traits are because of the negative impact and influence of colonization oppression that we experience in the past.
And if we will not change our mind, these traits will transfer again to the next generation to generation. As the old cliché goes say “History repeats its
cycle”. But like I said these can be change, I believe, boldly and strongly to say that we (Filipinos) are emerging true leaders. We can correct and fix
what is wrong in the past, and move on to the next level and have a better future.

1. FATALISM – An attitude wherein “what goes around, comes around” or “come what may” or in Tagalog “Bahala na habit”. They tend to surrender
their future on fate.
2. CRAB MENTALITY – This is often observed in politics wherein they tend to push each other down for the benefit of themselves to go up so they
try their best to make the person drop or ruin. It goes to the term selfishness or self-centered.
These are just few common Filipino negative traits there are so many out there but these are the ones who really stand out from the rest.
We will add some more to the next topic.
C. THE PARADOX: BAYANIHAN
BAYANIHAN – Pronounced like “buy-uh-nee-hun,” the greatest ever culture of Filipinos. Bayanihan is a Filipino word derived from the word “bayan”
meaning town, nation, or community in general. “Bayanihan” literally means, “being a bayan,” and is thus used to refer to a spirit of communal unity
and cooperation. Although bayanihan can be manifest itself in many forms, it is probably most clearly and impressively displayed in the old tradition
of neighbors helping a relocating family by getting enough volunteers to carry the whole house, and literally moving it to its new location. They do this
by placing long bamboo poles length-wise and cross-wise under the house (traditional Filipino houses were built on stilts), and then carrying the
house using this bamboo frame. It takes a fairly large number of people – often 20 or more – working together to carry the entire house. All this is
done in a happy and festive mood. At the end of the day, the moving family expresses their gratitude by hosting a small fiesta for everyone.
Bayanihan has been a favorite subject of many artists. Also bayanihan in action was in National Geographic channel available in some of
our library. The word “bayanihan” is a Tagalog word for communal work.
D. CONTRIBUTION AND RESULTS OF BAYANIHAN AS A BY-PRODUCT CULTURE OF FILIPINOS
1. THE BAYANIHAN TO HEAL AS ONE ACT, REPUBLIC ACT NO. 11469 – Is a law of our country that was enacted in March 2020 granting the President
additional authority to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. Or An Act Declaring the Existence of a National Emergenct Arising from the Corona virus
Disease 2019 (COVID -19). And a lot more contribution of bayanihan as a by-products of our culture.
EFFECTS OF COLONIZATION - OPPRESSION
The negative effects, influence and impacts of colonization is result to oppression. The original traits, culture, and character of the Filipino
people was subjugated or dominated by the Spanish culture during their colonization or regime in the country. It was change by their culture through
their oppression. Until now, we cannot hide the truth, we still observed and practice some of these traits that was transferred, learned and teach in us
by the Spaniards. Remember, originally, we never have these kinds of traits when the Spaniards not yet occupied our country. Furthermore,
remember the definitions of traits that we tackle above, traits are natural or in-built. Therefore, traits are never adopted and implemented from
another culture. This was only we practiced and observed after their regime until now. We’re not originally design with these kinds of traits.
REMEMBER THIS: Our being true Filipino Patriotic and Nationalistic never begins after the end of Spanish regime or colonization. True
Filipino Patriotic and Nationalistic begins or commence from the time when our Country is not yet invaded by the colonizer countries or when the
Philippines (Maharlika) is free from invaders. Our Patriotism and Nationalism is not after the colonization rather commence before the colonization
period. It begins when the Philippines is free from invaders countries.
A. THE FOLLOWING ARE SOME NEGATIVE TRAITS BECAUSE OF OPPRESSION: COLONIZATION
1. MANANA (DALLYING TACTICS) – Origin Spanish, a disease, literally means tomorrow, from Vulgar Latin “Maneana”, from feminine of
“Maneanus early”, from Latin “Mane early in the morning” – an indefinite time in the future (Webster dictionary) First use: 1845 for noun and for
adverb First use: 1938.
Manana habit is one of the most negative traits of some Filipino people. Its means “mamaya na” in Filipino or to do a certain thing in a later
time. It is a procrastination way of doing a things or simple means finding a way to delay a work to be done. It also means putting off important tasks
for later and hastily makes it to the last minute when the deadline draws closer.
NEGATIVE EFFECT OF MANANA HABIT
As we can see that if we always make an excuse or any way to delay to finish a job as soon as possible, we might be in a hurry when the
deadline is near. As a result we might tend to panic, worry too much, overcrowding and not able to concentrate, so we might get more mistake than a
good outcome.
HOW TO GET RID OF THIS NEGATIVE HABIT
PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 26 OF 39
A. KNOWS HOW TO PRIORITIES - First things first
B. SET YOUR GOAL FIRST - We should know the importance of why do we need to do it.
C. CONCENTRATE AND HAVE FOCUS - We should pursue and stimulate ourselves in order to be more eager in finishing our goal.
D. GOOD PLAN – We should know everything about what do we need to do, especially the time, we should manage our time carefully and our priority
to make it in time. Do it as you can or as you are available. So that you can finish it earlier than the said time and you can have more time to recheck
and polish your work.
THE PARADOX - MANANA OR DALLYING IS SIMPLE: There is no time to waste time.

2. PROCRASTINATION (POSTPONING) – Is the act of delaying or postponing a task or set of tasks. Postponing is much more prone with this habit.
So, whether you refer to it as procrastination or “Akrasia” or something else, it is the force that prevents you from following through on what you set
out to do.

3. NINGAS KUGON’ – Refers to the Filipino cultural trait of very enthusiastically starting things, but then quickly losing enthusiasm soon after.

TO DISSECT WHAT THE PHRASE MEANS:

A. NINGAS - Means “IN FLAME”; it could also be a “SPARK” that could eventually turn into fire, something that could also be “BURNING”. There
are many ways of interpreting it but, basically those are the straight out meaning in English as they in Tagalog and of course if you come from a
different province in the Philippines, the word might have a contrasting significance. But for the purpose of understanding, we shall make use of how
it is commonly understood.
B. ‘KUGON’ – It actually refers to a tall, perennial grass used in thatching. (Scientific name – IMPERATA CYLINDRICAL).

ETYMOLOGICALLY – The English word “Cogon” is from the Spanish “Cogon”, while in Tagalog, it is expressed and spelled as “Kugon”. Cogon
grass is called by the Japanese “Blood grass” and is considered a noxious weed that is more invasive species than Kudzu in the Southeastern
United Sates.
C. The two words put together is “FLAMING COGON GRASS” – As a Filipino Cultural trait, It refers to the Filipino cultural trait of enthusiastically
starting things, but then quickly losing enthusiasm soon after. So if you try to lit up a “Cogon” you would observe how it will just burn into flames and
poof! Gone afterwards!
D. Correlating “NINGAS COGON” to the Filipinos could be rooted from the fact that at times or in more ways than one, Filipinos tend to leaves
problems unsolved or projects undone because of lack of knowledge on how to resolve or fix the problems. Thus, it is “Better” to leave it, but, the
truth is, it is more of the lack of understanding of the root of the problems.
E. In short, that Cultural trait has been attributed to the Filipinos for years and somewhere along the years, it appears that Filipinos themselves – not
all about some – have admitted or even owned such a character trait.
F. The reality though is different, because we know full well that we are much more than what that preconceived attributions say of Filipinos than
what we actually are.
G. It is a negative connotation which we ourselves have proven to be a mere attribution outside of the fact.
H. It is misnomer in the Filipino Culture that could even lead to discrimination to us as Filipinos in general. It has been proven for years that Filipinos
are hard workers, and those who are in abroad working are sacrificing for the sake of their families and loved ones left behind in the Philippines, is a
demonstration of not being a “NINGAS KUGON”.
I. Filipinos have made themselves worthy to any society they face. Experience tells us. Although a saying holds true that in “Any forest there is a
snake” But the Filipinos have shown integrity and dignity, and in the midst of the problems the country and its people or citizens are facing now
(Crisis), our nature is to prosper, and it may not come now but surely later.
J. With the ideals of the present dispensation, and in the Presidency of Rodrigo Duterte, the speck of light at the end of the tunnel, the Philippines is
going through, can already be seen even from the far distance.

4. BALAT-SIBUYAS (Tagalog) – (In adjective) – Easily hurt; sensitive to criticism; smooth.

ETYMOLOGY - Balat (“Skin”) + Sibuyas (“Onion”) – Literally “Onion skinned”.
A. Noun – Balat – Sibuyas – (Idiomatic) means – A crybaby. Examples: The tragedy in the film is intense: It is not for crybabies!
B. (Idiomatic) – One who is easily bruised or cut.
C. Adjective – (1. Idiomatic) – Of being a crybaby. Example: Sam is a crybaby, hence he is constantly taunted. (2. Idiomatic) – Of being easily
bruised or cut.
D. Verb. Balat – Sibuyas – (Mamalat-sibuyas) – (1. Idiomatic) Of being like a crybaby (Iyakin): Example: Stop whimpering and face your problem!
(2. Idiomatic) – To be easily bruised or cut.
THEREFORE: Sign of immature – when problems or struggle hits us, we easily tend to backslide and not facing the problem.

IN RESPONSE: UNDERSTANDING MATURITY

MATURITY – Means full of age and development. It comes from the Greek word “Teleos” which means being complete and perfect. Having
attained the purpose and the end. But maturity is not based on age but base on our understanding.
MATURITY has nothing to do with age. It has to do with your ability to maintain your balance, perspective, and internal peace in the
middle of unexpected chaos. Maturity isn’t ignoring danger but rather interpreting it correctly so that it becomes a benefit to you rather than a burden.
Change then becomes a source of courage rather than discomfort. Each situation is different, and we must be discerning. Yet reacting with alarm
and without proper thought is immature, while responding purposefully and productively is mature.
Being mature means responding to life from a mind-set grounded in the understanding that life is unpredictable. Maturity is also the
constructive response to expected change. Use change in your life as you would discipline (James 1:2-4). Maturity is tested and manifested by
change. When the unexpected happens, when adversity comes against you, your maturity will be tested. A mature person will always use adversity
for advancement. A mature person will always use adversity for advancement. Maturity also is when you reestablish your personality.
MATURED PEOPLE: RELEASE THEIR POTENTIAL
It actually manifests who you are inside, not just what you portray to others. It will test your true level of maturity. It will challenge your
traditions to see if they stand the test of time (Rom. 8:37-39).
TAKE NOTE: To exist is to change; to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself (personality) endlessly.
FURTHERMORE: Maturity is measured by your capacity to respond effectively to tragedy and chaos, problems or crisis.
THEREFORE: We Filipinos are not easily to give up to any situation, circumstance and sudden events or crisis. Filipinos are resilient to
any situation. Originally, this kind of traits was naturally and or innate in us from our ancestors as our characteristics of being a Filipino. Note: pls.
add some more.

PART 09: OPPRESSION AS RESULTS OF COLONIZATION
When people are oppressed-in any generation or any people-they develop a spirit of irresponsibility and a hatred for work. Many
individuals today are carrying the baggage of their former oppression. Work isn't viewed as an opportunity to glorify God and receive His promotion;
it is viewed as an obligation-merely a way to pay the bills.

1. DON'T HATE WORK. LOVE WORK - Develop a passion for the thing that God gave you to do. Do it the way Jesus did it. "`My food,' said
Jesus, `is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work"' (John 4:34).
When your work becomes as important as three meals a day, you are becoming a responsible person. When they have to pull you away from your
work to eat, you are coming close to the spirit of responsibility.
2. PEOPLE WHO HATE WORK CAN'T HANDLE TIME - They become irritated and depressed when they have time on their hands, because
time demands the responsibility of deciding how to spend it. They love it when people drive them and tell them what to do, because they have the
spirit of the slave. And because nothing a slave does is for his own good, people who have been oppressed for years have difficulty with productivity.
Most Third World and developing nations are suffering from this today.
TAKE NOTE: Do you know how the prosperity of a country is measured? It is measured by the Gross National Product (GNP). The
wealth of a country isn't measured by how much money they have in the national treasury, but by how much the people are producing. When the
majority of your people have lived their lives under the whip of poverty and oppression, productivity suffers and the country stays poor. GNP simply
means the collective productivity of the nation's citizenry.

3. LAZINESS - People who have been oppressed suffer from a spirit of laziness because they equate work with suffering and pain. It is possible for
constructive, necessary things like housecleaning, yard work-even personal hygiene-if forced upon a person in servitude, to become unwelcome,
disdained kinds of work. Even when that person is no longer forced to do those things, they may remain activities to avoid.
This kind of laziness is a product of the oppression itself. People don't want to be lazy. But they do become lazy from being the managed
instead of the manager. They lose their energy and enthusiasm because of oppressive restraints put upon them that keep them from being self-
productive. Oppression actually conditions people to be unproductive, and
4. FEAR - People who are oppressed are also full of fear. They are fearful because everything they see is painful to them. Everything that happens to
them is viewed as a power play to force them into doing something they don't want to do. So they avoid responsibility and live in fear. Fear also
comes from not knowing what your oppressors are going to do to you. Laziness becomes a lifestyle. Lack of self-motivation and initiative prevail.
Oppressed people are afraid of everything, even their own people. They cringe at the thought of anyone gaining power over them, especially those
who were once oppressed with them.
Bearing all of this in mind, oppressed people view their employers as taskmasters bearing the whip. So they are intimidated by what they
perceive as the oppressor when the boss walks into their office. As soon as he or she shows up, they feel unimportant. What's wrong? They're still
intimidated. Fear lives in them even in freedom.
5. LOW SELF-ESTEEM - Low self-esteem is another effect of living under oppression. If someone has been oppressed, he begins to believe that
down is where he belongs. If he is invited up, he will give a list of reasons why up is not the place for him.
TAKE NOTE: The oppressor will never allow those he oppresses to be equal with him because this minimizes his superiority, which he
used in his oppression of others. He has to reduce those he preys upon to less than who they really are so he can justify his oppression. Therefore,
PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 28 OF 39
oppressed people are so low in their estimation of themselves that they don't believe they deserve anything good. Low self-esteem plagues their
lives because the oppressor gave them an estimation of themselves that made them look insignificant and small.

6. POOR SELF-CONCEPT - Some people are told all their lives that they are nothing and that they will never amount to anything. After a while they
believe it. Once they believe it, they are in trouble, because it takes an entire generation to remove the spirit of a poor self-concept and low self-
worth, except by a divine interruption. TAKE NOTE: No one can make you a human. You were born a human. Therefore, no one has the right to
assign value to you-or to devalue you. Human value is not dependent upon what others think about us. It is inherent in who we are because of our
creation by God. The value of the gold ring on my finger isn't determined by what you think about it. You may say the ring is stupid or worthless, but
it's still gold. You may say it's plastic, but it's still gold. You may say it's retarded, depressed and ugly, but it's still gold. What you think about it has
nothing to do with what it is. Civil rights can legally grant a ring to sit on my finger while the value of the thing is still in dispute. So don't confuse civil
rights with human rights.

7. SELFISHNESS - If an oppressed person who never had anything suddenly gets something, he hangs on to it with his life. This is how oppression
promotes selfishness, and this is why oppressed people can be very dangerous. If they ever get a position of power, everyone is in trouble.
Oppression breeds greed. Greed breeds more greed. "Things" begin to represent a false prestige and power, and those who threaten their
accumulation are viewed as pests worthy of elimination. If you don't believe me, look at world history-countries have gone to war over treasure and
land. The spirit of selfishness also manifests itself in the mind-set (attitude) of immediate gratification. This is the desire to demand instant pleasure
and satisfaction. Oppression makes the status symbol of the oppressors to be the object of pursuit for the oppressed at the expense of development,
personal growth and maturity. TAKE NOTE: The spirit of irresponsibility that comes from oppression brings a lack of creativity. If you have been told
what to do all your life, you stop using your mind.
REMEMBER THIS: Oppressors don't want those they oppress to think for themselves. So they try to keep them ignorant, and they do
everything in their power to keep them from getting a good education. The oppressor doesn't want the oppressed to expand their minds and get
knowledge. It is ignorance that gives and maintains the power of oppression, so they use it as a tool. When things get tough, our brains should kick
in creatively. It is then that we figure out how we are going to put food on the table. But if we never have to figure things out, our brains shut down. It
is in those tough times that free thinkers will sew those dresses, cook that rice or sell those cakes.

8. DISTRUST - When people have been oppressed, they learn to distrust their brothers because of the spirit of survival. The spirit of oppression and
slavery also produces jealousy, distrust, suspicion and hate. When you are oppressed, all you want to do is make it through the day. You'll use
anybody to get ahead and to survive life's miseries with more comfort. This is why people who have been oppressed usually fight each other. They
don't trust one another, especially when one of them starts to move ahead. They are fearful of a power play, so they band together to pull any
achiever back down. Because of all the restrictive and inhibiting effects of oppression, the non-thinking tendencies of this condition naturally take the
initiative from a person. It is that initiative that would drive him to do things for himself. People who have been in bondage for a long time have almost
no personal drive left.

BEFORE AND AFTER THE END OF COLONIZATION: WORLDWIDE TIDES OF CHANGE
Globalization is a modern term that describes the collapse of the many barriers between nations such as distance, culture, trade tariffs,
and access to global communication. This new international phenomenon began with the advent of modern travel, increased with the invention of
radio, television, and telephone technology, and then exploded with the emergence of computer and cyberspace technology. Thus, it said to be that,
GLOBALIZATION is a threat to a sovereignty of a certain country. Why, because globalization promotes the idea of conformity.
Since the end of colonization, the world’s population responds to change effectively because of the effect of colonization as a result of
change. To make sense, leaders nowadays must think globally and make themselves global citizen. Because economy of the world are integrated
whatever happen. Moreover, since the history of colonization, historic convergences and transitional tides have occurred at significant points
throughout the ages. Colonization is a strategic period of history when major events occur, bringing with them momentous transformations in social,
economic, political, and spiritual conditions. In response, we must understand this change and meet it effectively or the forces of transition will pull us
along, and we will have no influence in the midst of them. We are truly in seasons of change. It will take an informed, globally minded, spiritually
sensitive, skilled, educated, purpose-inspired person to effectively make a difference in our generation and set a standard for the generations to
come. It will take those who understand the dynamics of change and who determine to respond rather than to react. Today’s leaders will have to be
creative on demand, understanding their roles and purposes in their generation.
Therefore, nowadays, being a sovereign country (sovereignty) or being Patriotic and Nationalistic are just merely on the book. Either it will
challenge of cancel the sovereignty of a country. And sometimes they don’t work no more. But rather, its reason and purpose is of being now
partnership in the world of business. These are some effects of globalization.
A. THE TEN (10) MAJOR AREAS IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY WILL BE KNOWN AS THE AGE OF:
1. Globalization 6. Merging and Networking
2. Information 7. Longevity of life
3. Communication 8. Technology (Digital)
4. Mobilization 9. Social and Political Transition
5. Cultural Diversification 10. Rapid Transformation
PARADIGM SHIFT - No matter what nation, culture, or outlook we come from, we must know how to respond to the rapid change that is
happening around us, to us, through us, and within us. A PARADIGM refers to a model, pattern, or way of thinking and acting. When change occurs in a
paradigm, it is called a PARADIGM SHIFT. Those who fail to understand the times and seasons and don’t discover how to participate in them will find

PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM

PAGE 29 OF 39
themselves irrelevant in our changing world. Another definition of paradigm shift is going back to our original set of mentality. In other words, unlearning and
relearning is a part of learning. And learning is different from knowing. We will tackle this into details as we go on in our discussion.

B. HISTORIC CONVERGENCE AS A STRATEGIC PERIOD OF HISTORY - When major events occur, bringing with them momentous transformations in
social, economic, political, and spiritual conditions.

C. THE GENERATIONAL PROGRESSION OF HUMANKIND - Understanding the principles and benefits of change, especially in relation to seasons
and times, is critical if we are to interpret the activities of God in our generation.
D. SPHERES OF TRANSITION
1. GENERATIONAL TRANSITION: Your response to generational transition is vital to carrying forward God’s work in the world.
2. POLITICAL TRANSITION: The international balance of power is shifting from the one known by previous generations.
3. ECONOMIC TRANSITION: International finance has caused the economies of the world’s nations to become more closely intertwined than at any
other time in history.
4. RELIGIOUS TRANSITION: Nations long considered Christian strongholds have seen a decline in church affiliation and attendance.
5. SPIRITUAL TRANSITION: It is necessary to make a distinction between religious and spiritual transition in the world because spiritual transition
involves direct divine activity, whereas religious transition may be the result of mere human activity.
6. SOCIAL AND CULTURAL TRANSITION: In recent years, the social infrastructure of many nations has been transformed by increased access to formal
education and long-distance educational programs, the explosion of the information age, and the expansion of travel. The world has truly become a
“global village.”
E. TEN (10) AREAS CONVERGING TO TRANSFORM OUR WORLD
1. THE AGE OF GLOBALIZATION - Referring to economic markets and competition, as well as to the social impact of the international economy on
people’s lives. We are seeing a shift from local to national markets and from national to global markets.
2. THE AGE OF INFORMATION - We are not only in the age of information, but we are also on the age of solution or answer to the challenges we
are facing.
3. THE AGE OF COMMUNICATION - Is about more than the availability of information. It is about connecting people—often instantaneously—all
over the world. It’s about constant communication through cell phones, BlackBerries, Twitter, and other technology. It is about increased markets
and business. It is about the diffusion of ideas and the reporting of events worldwide.
4. THE AGE OF MOBILIZATION - In general, it gives more people the freedom to go where they want to, when they want to.
5. THE AGE OF CULTURAL DIVERSIFICATION - Cultural literacy has a direct bearing on your ability to understand, communicate with, and
engage in discourse with, and influence cultures different from your own. The twenty-first century church, therefore, requires a multinational,
interracial, trans-generational approach that transcends any particular nation’s social or political agenda. We must be willing to change old,
ineffective methods, modes, and attitudes to meet the needs of today.
6. THE AGE OF MERGERS AND NETWORKING - We have the choice of trying to hide from the reality of changes or dealing with them forthrightly
and with a dedication to deriving benefits from them that will enable us to fulfill our purposes in the world.
7. THE AGE OF LONGEVITY OF LIFE - Longevity of life means that many people will be healthy and productive for a greater number of years than
the generations before them. Longevity also means that people will need financial resources to see them through their later years, which could
extend into their eighties, nineties, and beyond.
8. THE AGE OF TECHNOLOGY (DIGITAL) - Whatever your age or situation, the challenge is to allow technology to benefit you—not control you.
9. THE AGE OF POLITICAL AND RELIGIOUS TRANSFORMATION - The idea is that leadership should be a shared responsibility with
collaboration and cooperation among nations rather than a few nations dictating to the others. Both the traditional leaders of the world and the
emerging leaders will need to be able to respond under these changed circumstances.
10. THE AGE OF RAPID TRANSFORMATION - Seek to discover how you can best benefit from momentous change and use it to contribute
something positive to others.

F. WE MUST TO UNDERSTAND THIS: - What you don’t know will hurt you and your children. Ignorance is generational and transferable. We have
had information for a long time, but now we live in the information age and moved to post millennial age, even today digital age and we have no
excuses. The government is not going to correct this, we have to correct this. IGNORANCE is when you don’t know. STUPID is when you won’t
listen to who does know.

G. COMMUNITY IS THE INCUBATOR OF CULTURE: - Community controls culture, then culture controls community vice versa. A community is
a commune of unity dedicated to corporate success though laws, values, standards and social norms. NATIONS are manifested in community.
Nations are only as strong as their community. Nations are products of a community. Let’s fix our communities, and economic power is the start.
PART 11: RESPONDING TO CHANGE
TAKE NOTE: Not every change is for our improvement, but without change there can be no improvement, development, and advancement.
Change is the essence of our experience of life. Seasons can be physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, or societal. The word season is
often used to define change that is not a short-term event but rather an extended period of transition. Seasons involve the replacement of one
environment or condition with another. NOTE: Change is very dangerous if it is not regulated. In other words, change is growth but without the
expense of compromising and sacrificing principles.
Furthermore, change is the only guarantee we have in life. If you cannot manage change, you will never manage life. Embrace change as a friend.
THE POINT THAT I WANT TO EXPRESS HEREIN IS: Crisis comes to destroy and change tradition. This means that, crisis comes to
change our paradigm. Crisis also is the incubator of creativity. This means that, your response is more important than your experience. But crisis is
not a crisis. It’s a change, and change is not a change but a season, and season is not just a short term of period, but it’s a transition. So crisis is a
change, and change is a season and season is a transition. To conclude this foregoing statement, it will commence from change, transition and
transformation. Change is the knowledge that you learn, transition is the process of understanding, and transformation is the final manifestation. It is
the total reversal of your mind, a paradigm shift.

PART 12: TRUE NATIONALISM AND PATRIOTISM: ONLY FOUND IN TRUE FREEDOM
The principle of responsibility as the source of being nationalistic and patriotic and the way to true nationalism and patriotism is true
freedom and the key to true freedom is responsibility.
The greater the obstacle overcome, the greater the personal development.
A. THE SPIRIT OF OPPRESSION BECAUSE OF COLONIZATION
1. When your work becomes as important as three meals a day, you are becoming a responsible person.
2. Oppression actually conditions people to be unproductive, and laziness becomes a lifestyle.
3. Oppressed people are quick to accuse when they are no longer receiving the provisions of their servitude.
4. Oppressed people are afraid of everything, even their own people.
5. It is human rights, not civil rights, that set people free.
6. The spirit of responsibility knows there is always a way to accomplish everything.
7. The spirit of oppression and slavery also produces jealousy, distrust, suspicion and hate.

THE ENEMY OF TRUE FREEDOM IS A SLAVE MENTALITY.

God will never allow you to become all you were born to be until you are sick of being what you were. You will never progress to
God's dream for your life until you hate the nightmare in which you were living. We must hate whom we used to be and completely abandon our past
before God can make us whom He wants us to be. Remember-mental transformation is more important than physical relocation. Some people still
dream about whom they used to be. They do the same things they used to do with old Egyptian friends. They still pass certain Egyptian hangouts
and slow down. They still desire Egyptian food.
NOTE: Nothing changes until your mind changes. This is why the Creator can't trust many of us with the dream He has for us. Most of us
are still thinking about Egypt, and God will keep us in that desert-twenty, thirty or forty years if we refuse to change.

B. REMEMBER, WEARING A CROWN DOESN'T MAKE ONE THINK LIKE A KING:

RESPONSIBILITY IS THE PREREQUISITE FOR FREEDOM. THEREFORE, THE PRINCIPLE OF FREEDOM IS RESPONSIBILITY,
BECAUSE FREEDOM DEMANDS IT.
To be responsible in our calling, we must know who we are in order to be strong. God's first admonition to Joshua was, "Be strong and
courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their forefathers to give them. Be strong and very courageous" (Josh.
1:6-7) Freedom demands more strength than slavery.

FREEDOM DEMANDS PERSONAL STRENGTH AND COURAGE BECAUSE FREEDOM DEMANDS DISCIPLINE.
This is the hour God is calling religious people to cancel their "Bless-Me" club memberships. God isn't giving us anything we
"claim" anymore. We are out of the miracle wilderness of the Charismatic movement, and He is calling us to be strong. God is saying that now is the
time to roll up our sleeves, dig our wells and take the land. Some of us have crossed over Jordan, but many others are dying in the wilderness with
our Bless-Me club memberships and lazy lifestyles. Take responsibility for your own destiny.

To experience true freedom we must understand the difference between freedom and deliverance and embrace the reality that freedom
demands personal and corporate responsibility. This principle is to be applied to individuals, organizations, communities and nations. The Creator
also wanted Joshua to know that some things ahead were going to be frightening. He wanted him to know this to inspire his courage. And the same
is true for you. God will show you things that will frighten you when you grow up. He will give you something He knows you can handle, but your
mind won't be able to believe it. So be not afraid of fear, because fear is the soil of courage. Courage is not the absence of fear, but the freedom to
face it. Fear is necessary for coverage. God's courage comes when fear arrives, so He wants a people who will run toward the battles and
challenges of life. It is then that He infuses us with His courageous abilities and peace. In God's mind, challenges are only opportunities to exercise
our potential. Because freedom demands responsibility.
It is time to move from
wonders to work. It is time to mature. Maturity is characterized by responsibility." National independence does not guarantee freedom; it only proffers
deliverance from imperialism. The spirit of industry, work and responsibility determines the success and development of a delivered nation.
The price of freedom is spelled R-E-S-P-O-N-S-I-B-I-L-I-T-Y. The most pathetic person in the world is someone who has sight but has no
vision.-Helen Keller.
C. THE PREREQUISITE FOR FREEDOM
IS RESPONSIBILITY DEFINITION OF RESPONSIBILITY
This is not the official dictionary version of the origin of
the word, but this really helps me get a grasp on its meaning. 1. The first part of the word responsibility is "re," which means "to return to
the original, to go back to the source." 2. The second syllable of responsibility is "spons." This always reminds me of
"sponsor," which means "one who assumes responsibility to pay for another or support another." A sponsor is a supporter or an upholder. The
sponsor is the one who pays for something or who oversees and is responsible for the execution of something. A sponsor is one's source.
3. The final part in the word responsibility is "ability." Ability means "to
have the power to perform whatever is required." So ability is strength, capacity, might and potential.

THEREFORE: When we put the three parts of this word together, we get an
interesting definition. RESPONSIBILITY - Means "submitting, or returning in submission, the power given to you." It is giving account of the ability to
the one who sponsored you by maximizing that potential as he demands. When the Creator gives you a seed, He doesn’t want that seed back; He
wants a forest.
FREEDOM DEMANDS THE THREE KEYS TO SUCCESS-
1. Priorities
2. Organize and
3. Discipline.
If you are waiting to get blessed before you start doing something, you are going to
lose what you have. Freedom demands work and responsibility. Freedom demands risk, courage, pain and persistence.

DECIDE TO BE RESPONSIBLE, AND GOD WILL SEE YOU THROUGH

Obedience is the trigger that makes God move on your behalf. Responsibility will always attract
resources from the Source who is the sponsor, so you can bring back the end result to Him. Responsibility demands a response.

 D. THE DISCIPLINE OF RESPONSIBILITY: INTERNAL CONTROL
In freedom you are the master and make your own laws.
TRUE FREEDOM - Is the liberty to dominate the resources of earth through your gifts, self-discipline and
internal management. FREEDOM - Is self-initiated work.
REMEMBER THIS: In oppression people are motivated by external threat. In freedom, they are motivated by
internal commitment. You can tell if people are coming close to freedom because you don't have to watch them. Instead of doing what is right
because of the pressure of others, they live by principles. They obey because it's the right thing to do, not because they're fearful of disobeying. True
freedom is self-management. In freedom, you are not employed; you deploy your own gifts. You have to wake yourself up. You're on
your own time. You must be self-disciplined. You must set your own priorities and plan your own schedule. Simply put, in freedom you take
responsibility for your own life because you are the one who determines your own destiny.

E. KNOWING YOUR VALUE

FREEDOM - Is discovery of your true self: your self-worth, value and self-esteem.
You are truly free when you know who you are. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything"
(James 1:2-4).
DISCIPLINE-Because discipline is an integral part of His testing program. It is inevitable once you walk
out of oppression that His discipline will start to form you for freedom. When you start trading with your talents, it will form you for success. The
wilderness is the institute of discipline. DISCIPLINE - Is self-imposed standards and restrictions motivated by a desire greater than the
alternatives. Discipline is decisions dictated by a determined destiny. Freedom demands discipline. Discipline also is your submitting yourself to the
principles not to your own desire.
FURTHERMORE, FREEDOM - Is not the absence of law, but the responsible response to law.
True freedom is manifested in self-discipline. A disciplined man is a free man. Remember, true freedom is not a right; it is a privilege that is earned
through discipline and responsibility. Everything in life is designed to release the hidden, trapped potential that god has placed within you.

THE PRINCIPLE OF RESPONSIBILITY

1. Freedom demands the three keys to success-prioritize, organize and discipline.
2. If you are waiting to get blessed before you start doing something, you are going to lose what you have.
3. The spirit of responsibility always attracts God's blessing. 5. Freedom demands work and
responsibility. 4. There is really no greater burden than freedom itself. 6. Freedom demands risk,
courage, pain and persistence. 7. God is responsible for responding to your responsibility. He is obligated to take care of what He tells you to do.
8. The Source who sponsored you will sponsor the growth. 12. Political laws and legislation
cannot create self-esteem. 9. Responsibility demands a response. 13. You are truly free when you
know who you are. 10. True freedom is self-management. 14. No test comes unless God
allows it. 11. The wilderness is the University of Work. 15. The wilderness is the institute
of discipline. 16. A disciplined man is a free man.
17. Everything in life is designed to release the hidden, trapped potential that God has placed within you.
18. Freedom is your destiny.

FREEDOM MISCONCEPTIONS
1. Freedom is the absence of laws and restrictions. There is no freedom without law.
2. Freedom is void of work and obligation. 4. Freedom is relaxation. True freedom is permission to work and fulfill your potential.
3. Freedom is retirement from responsibility. Freedom is hard work. 5. Freedom is the release from external control.

RESPONDING TO FREEDOM'S CALL

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today. - Abraham Lincoln
1. FREEDOM MISCONCEPTIONS:
A. Freedom is the absence of laws and restrictions. D. Freedom is relaxation.
B. Freedom is void of work and obligation. E. Freedom is the release from external control.
C. Freedom is retirement from responsibility.
2. In freedom, we finally get to do everything ourselves. We get to see a need and meet it because it's the right thing to do.
3. True freedom is permission to work and fulfill your potential.
Mismanagement may be "personal," but it is never "private."
Your destiny is responsibility your future is freedom to work, to dominate and to rule.
REMEMBER THIS: Freedom is not a vacation from earthly responsibilities and eternal realities; it is actually quite the opposite. In
freedom, we finally get to do everything ourselves. We get to see a need and meet it because it's the right thing to do.
F. THE PRINCIPLE AND POWER OF OPPRESSION
OPPRESSION - Can be defined as the imposition of external domination on another person to the point of controlling their physical, mental and
spiritual aspirations. Oppression is the cancellation of self-determination and the suffocation of personal potential. The human spirit was created to
dominate, and not to be dominated. Any attempt to dominate, control, suppress, restrict and oppress the human spirit will ultimately fail. The natural
desire to be liberated will always win over oppression because of this natural spirit of dominion.
G. UNDERSTANDING THE NATURE OF OPPRESSION
The goal of oppression is to achieve complete control and domination over the human spirit. Oppression attempts to destroy the desire for
self-determination. This is done by a process of mental conditioning known as "breaking the spirit." This is called the possessing of the soul. The soul
consists of the mind, the will and the emotions. This process usually begins with the restriction of physical freedom, movement and exposure to the
environment. The objective is to control the physical environment so as to influence the mental, emotional and spiritual state of the individual. This
process also includes control of access to resources and information. This is why historically, in every case of national communal oppression, the
oppressor's grip on access to education and travel became imperative.
THE EFFECTS OF OPPRESSION
1. Oppression begins with the destruction of an individual’s self-worth and sense of self.
2. It dismantles one's concept of self and value, and creates a lowered estimation of one's humanness.
3. Oppression brings dissolution of a sense of purpose and meaning to life, reinforced by a spirit of hopelessness and despair.
4. Self-doubt and depression become commonplace among the oppressed, resulting in an immobilizing form of self-hatred, an inferiority complex,
fear and the veneration of the oppressor.
5. Oppressions produce a deep spirit of dependency and lack of self-confidence.

H. THE EFFECT OF OPPRESSION ON THE OPPRESSOR

PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 34 OF 39
1. It is important to note that the oppressor is also oppressed-and the source of his oppression is the perceptions, attitudes and concepts he has
developed toward the oppressed.
2. Many oppressors have been affected by an insidious form of brainwashing, which has produced a mental disease that makes it nearly impossible
for the oppressor to renew his mind with regard to the value, worth and equality of the formerly oppressed.
3. This form of oppression-revealing itself as the sense of superiority-must be dealt with just as the oppressed need to be delivered from the spirit
and mental conditioning of an inferiority complex.
TAKE NOTE: Both the oppressed and the oppressor need deliverance before true freedom can be embraced and experienced by both.

I. UNDERSTANDING THE PROCESS TO FREEDOM

1. There is truly no greater burden than freedom, no heavier load than liberty.
2. True freedom is the right and opportunity to dominate the earth through the inherent gift one received from the Creator.
3. Freedom is not the domination of another human being, but of the earth.
4. Freedom is essential to all moral responsibility, and moral responsibility is one of the institutions of the human mind.
5. However, freedom demands and could be defined as responsibility.
6. Freedom is God's delegated right for every man to dominate and govern and rule the earth, thus freedom is always within the law of delegation.
7. Responsibility is the greatest mark of maturity, both spiritually and mentally.
8. Freedom is more a matter of knowledge and understanding than of physical release from bondage.
TRUE FREEDOM - Is discovering and embracing your true self and becoming all you were born to be.

RESPONDING TO RESPONSIBILITY
1. Oppression is the cancellation of self-determination and the suffocation of personal potential.
2. The goal of oppression is to achieve complete control and domination over the human spirit.
3. To control a man, a community or a nation, one must control the information content that enters the subconscious mind.
4. Nothing changes until the subconscious mind changes.
5. Oppression begins with the destruction of an individual's self-worth and sense of self.
6. Oppression brings dissolution of a sense of purpose and meaning to life, reinforced by a spirit of hopelessness and despair.
7. Oppression produces a deep spirit of dependency and lack of self-confidence.
8. Both the oppressed and the oppressor need deliverance before true freedom can be embraced and experienced by both.
9. True freedom imposes more laws ... demands more work... and requires more responsibility than slavery.
10. Freedom is the delegated right and release of authority to be responsible for governing and managing your designated sphere of influence
through your natural gift in the fulfillment of God's purpose for your life.
BEING TRUE PATRIOTIC AND NATIONALISTIC - IS FOUND IN TRUE FREEDOM
In reading the lives of great men, we found that the first victory they won was over themselves self-discipline with all of them came first.
Freedom is a matter of the mind. True freedom is a matter of the mind-not of human law. And true freedom involves much more work than does
slavery-because freedom imposes more restraints on an individual than doe’s slavery. Freedom is the discovery of truth about yourself. Truth brings
freedom. True freedom will liberate you to become all you were created to be. It gives liberty to work within the laws of life. Freedom is self-imposed
discipline.
A. PRINCIPLES OF TRUE FREEDOM
1. In freedom, you are the boss whether you work for another or not.
The less responsible you are, the more laws you need. The more responsible you become, the less laws are required, because laws are
intended to push you away from their requirements into the productivity of personal freedom. True freedom requires law, because freedom without
law is anarchy. True freedom operates out of internalized laws based on the principles of God. In essence, then, self-control and self-discipline are
both attributes of true freedom because discipline is self-imposed law. This is freedom.
2. Freedom demands more work than slavery.
Freedom is rough. You have to work extra hard-harder than you ever did when you were enslaved in bond age, because now you have to
be responsible from the inside out.
3. Freedom requires more responsibility than slavery.
In freedom, everything you do affects someone else. If you neglect what you are supposed to do in your ministry, in your commitment, in
your promise to others or in your business, it's no longer a personal thing. You can't just say, "I'm not showing up tonight." In freedom, when you
don't show up, someone gets hurt. True freedom doesn't presume the right to act without regard to the effect personal decisions would have on
another s freedom. True freedom protects the freedom of others and acts responsibly on behalf of others. It is time to start holding one another
accountable. It is time to be responsible.
4. Freedom imposes more of the need for control than slavery.
Everything is permissible for me-but I will not be mastered by anything." If you don't control yourself, someone else will. Get ready for work. Accept
the wonderful burden of freedom and live at maximum.
Decide your destiny! Accept your freedom. Take your position. Respond to responsibility.
5. True freedom is a matter of the mind-not of human law.
6. Freedom is taking responsibility for your life. It is designing your destiny and deciding your own consequences.
7. The less responsible you are, the more laws you need.
8. Self-control and self-discipline are both attributes of true freedom because discipline is self-imposed law. This is freedom.
9. True freedom doesn't presume the right to act without regard to the effect personal decisions would have on another's freedom. True freedom
protects the freedom of others and acts responsibly on behalf of others.
10. We must exercise a kind of control in freedom that we didn't need in slavery-self-control!
PURSUING YOUR PERSONAL FREEDOM - Inventions demand freedom from convention.
B. DEFINITION OF FREEDOM
FREEDOM - Is defined as "the liberty to dominate" or "the right and capacity to dominate a specific domain." Thus we have the grammatical
construct, "freedom-the freedom to dominate." THEREFORE; TRUE FREEDOM - Is the unrestricted, uninhibited access to pursue the specific area
of one's gifts or talent, which is defined as one's domain. Therefore, the key to personal fulfillment and satisfaction is the opportunity to pursue the
development, exposure and maximization of the gifts and talents through which one dominates an area of work.
JOB VERSUS WORK - DEFINITION OF JOB
As a place of activity, this may or may not employ your gifts and talents. It may provide a source of financial income, but not necessarily
fulfillment. A job may fill your life with activity, but not necessarily effectiveness. It might render you busy, but not progressive. In essence, a job for
many is a glorified form of slavery, one that imposes an acceptable form of oppression on the masses.
DEFINITION OF WORK
From the beginning, the Creator's instruction to the first man He placed in the Garden of Eden was not to take a job-but to work. The idea of work, as
used in this context, is "to become," which implies manifestation rather than activity. In other words, to work means to become and manifest all that
you are on the inside. It means to release and expose your full potential through your gifts and talents. Simply put, you were created not to be
PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 35 OF 39
employed, but to be deployed. The number one problem in our world is not unemployment, but under-deployment. Because of the spirit of
oppression, most people find is easier to be employed rather than deployed, because deployment demands too much personal responsibility. True
freedom is moving beyond your job into your work. It is not being employed, but being deployed.
TAKE NOTE: Jobs prepare you for your work and should be embraced always as temporary.

REMEMBER THIS: Freedom does not come with age-it comes with the discovery and pursuit of your personal area of gifted domain. Go
beyond employment.

THE BURDEN OF PERSONAL FREEDOM - The dream and vision you hold in your heart, and the gifts and talents that you possess, will only be
manifested and maximized through the spirit of responsibility.
FREEDOM AND AUTHORITY
In essence, the ultimate goal of all personal and national authority is freedom. The very purpose for life is freedom-the liberty to dominate
and thus fulfill the original purpose and intent of the Creator.
PURSUING YOUR PERSONAL FREEDOM
1. The desire and passion for personal freedom is buried in the spirit and heart of each human.
2. Freedom is the unrestricted, uninhibited access to pursue the specific area of one's gifts or talents, which is defined as one's domain.
3. You were created not to be employed, but to be deployed.
4. Wealth, materialism, prosperity and a credible reputation are by-products of true freedom-not freedom itself.
5. Every individual who has achieved any legitimate measure of success will always have a testimony of challenges and difficulties that needed to be
overcome-and that were the price of their achievement.
6. The ultimate goal of all personal and national authority is freedom.
PRINCIPLES FOR EMERGING LEADERS: A NEW APPROACH TO LIFE
THOUGHTS TO PONDER: A man may fulfill the object of his existence by asking a question he cannot answer, and attempting a task he cannot
achieve.
A. THE EMERGING THIRD WORD: CONCEPT
The concept of Third World was introduced during a meeting of the G-5 nations (France, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom and the
United States) many years ago when they met to discuss the future development of the global economy. It is said that it was a French economist at
that time who, in an attempt to describe the different categories of economic situations, suggested that there were three worlds on the planet.
1. THE FIRST WORLD - Is known as the old world of Europe, which had been built on the agricultural society and governed by the systems of feudal
lords and local kings.
2. THE SECOND WORLD - Is known as the New World, which described the discovery and settlement throughout the Americas, both North and South.
This era was also known as the Industrial Revolution, which laid the foundation for our modern mechanical and technical societies.
3. THE FINAL WORLD, KNOWN AS THE THIRD WORLD - Describes the billions of people in territories that became the victims of oppression through
subjugation and slavery.

B. DEFINITION OF THIRD WORLD NATIONS - Refers to people who were not allowed to participate or benefit from the Industrial Revolution,
despite the fact that the sweat and blood of these people became the human slab on which the foundation of the Industrial Revolution was laid.
We believe it is the nature of Third World peoples to be hardworking, dedicated, and highly sensitive. Third World should realize its
potential to develop indigenous artistic works, resource management, financial autonomy, and accountability.
A word to Third World nations-There is no greater burden than freedom, no heavier load than liberty.
THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY WILL BE ONE OF RESPONSIBILITY-A CENTURY OF MATURITY. YOU CAN BECOME A CHANGE
AGENT IN THE MIDST OF A WORLD IN TRANSITION
1. EMERGING LEADERS INTERPRET THE PAST WITH INSIGHT - We are the products of our histories, as well as how we integrate those histories into our
lives. While we don’t want to be chained to our pasts, we need to understand them in order to appreciate the present.
2. CONSIDER THE PAST AS PRELUDE—NOT AS YOUR PRESENT
3. GOD CAN BRING GOOD EVEN OUT OF OPPRESSION
4. EMERGING LEADERS INVEST IN OTHERS
5. INVESTING IN OTHERS REQUIRES MATURITY
6. INVESTING IN OTHERS REQUIRES TAKING RESPONSIBILITY
If we don’t take responsibility, we will remain the same as we always have been.
7. RESULTS OF REMAINING MERELY A RECEIVER

THE QUESTION IS: What can we conclude about those who shrink back from their callings to be change agents with a vision to impact
others? What happens if you remain where you are?
A. You don’t have to lead—but you’ll always be led.
B. You don’t need to make decisions—but they will be made for you.
C. You don’t have to provide for yourself—but your needs will be met on others’ terms.
D. You’ll become attached to traditions—but you won’t learn to think for yourself.
E. Your irresponsibility will have consequences—not only for yourself, but also for others.
8. EMERGING LEADERS UNDERSTAND THEIR TRUE POTENTIALS - Another part is people limiting their own potentials because of ignorance, fear, or,
again, a lack of a sense of responsibility. Emerging leaders, therefore, are those who have come to understand their true identities and potentials in
God and to develop those potentials. The opinions of others should never determine your self-worth.
9. EMERGING LEADERS DEVELOP THEIR TRUE POTENTIALS - Emerging Leaders Develop Their True Potentials of our potentials in this generation so that
the next generation can build its future on our faithfulness to become all we can possibly be.
EMERGING LEADERS KNOW THAT...
A. Followers can become leaders. C. Former mission fields can become missionaries.
B. Learners can become teachers. D. Receivers can become givers.
10. EMERGING LEADERS UNDERSTAND TRUE FREEDOM -

UNDERSTANDING TRUE FREEDOM: IS BEING TRUE NATIONALISTIC AND PATRIOTIC - WHAT FREEDOM IS NOT
A. FREEDOM - Is not the absence of chains or other physical restraints. In fact, freedom is not the absence of restrictions in general.
B. FREEDOM - Is not “owned” by anyone. This element of true freedom is perhaps more difficult for people to comprehend than any other. We often
have the mistaken idea that other people are in possession of our freedom and are withholding it from us.
C. TRUE FREEDOM - Can never be given to you. (The natural inference from the previous statement is that if other people do not possess our
freedom, then others cannot bestow freedom on us, either.)
REMEMBER THIS: True freedom is always circumscribed by boundaries, and laws define those boundaries. Within those boundaries we are
free to thrive, prosper, and reach our full potential (Ps. 19:7-11), (Matt. 4:4).

 PART 13: UNDERSTANDING SINGLENESS FROM ALONE – FOR TRUE FREEDOM
BEING SINGLE MEANS:
1. SEPARATION - Being separate represents my freedom from the influence of others.
2. UNIQUENESS - Being aware of my uniqueness allows me to truly love myself for who I am and embrace the rare characteristics and qualities that
the King blessed me with. Uniqueness means is a self-discovery through self-manifestation that no one can replace and duplicate it only you can
perform it. In short uniqueness is being original.
3. WHOLENESS - Wholeness, in and of itself, is packed with so much significance! Who I am indicates my purpose in life. What I’m doing reflects my
vision of the future and what I have to give signifies my gift the world.
SINGLENESS - Is all about finding yourself, loving yourself, valuing yourself, and putting the highest estimation on yourself.
You have the opportunity to follow your dreams and your calling. Looking for your passion, your gifts, and your life’s purpose.
You have the opportunity to focus on your own happiness without balancing that of a partner’s. You have the opportunity to spend time on improving
yourself, becoming the best version of yourself. When you accept yourself, you are freed from the burden of needing others to accept you. Don’t
allow anyone or anything to control, limit or discourage you from being your True Self.
SELECTED PRINCIPLES ON SINGLENESS:
1. Singleness is a great time of life. Discover yourself. Singleness is all about Finding Yourself. That’s why singleness is not about civil status. It’s
okay to be single but not good to alone.
2. Being alone is not the absence of people around you, but the absence of direction of your purpose for your life.
3. Never get married until you are single. Marriage isn’t about rings. It’s about blood. Wedding is an event, but marriage is a covenant or contract
agreement.
4. The oddity of singularity is uniqueness. And uniqueness means being original. Why because uniqueness is a self-discovery through self-
manifestation that no one can duplicate, alter, copy and perform it by the other person. You cannot alter original.
5. Uniqueness also means you don’t need everyone else in order to feel important. It is importance of being completely single in order to become
one with someone else. The most important relationship you can develop in your life is the relationship with yourself. That’s why the foundation of all
relationship is intrarelationship not interrelationship.
CASE IN POINT: We have been driven by our culture to learn to relate to other people. That’s the way we have been conditioned. You’ve
been trained to focus on other people. That’s why we not equipped to have a relationship.
6. You cannot have an interpersonal relationship until you have settled the intrapersonal relationship.
CASE IN POINT: The foundation of our problems it’s that we don’t know how to love ourselves. We have never been taught how to love
ourselves. We keep expecting success when we are building with failure. If you don’t know who you are and don’t know what you want, then you
cannot love to appreciate or value other people.
7. The most important pursuit in life is self-knowledge and this is what singleness is all about.
8. The important relationship you can develop in your life is the relationship with yourself.

ALONE – Is different from singleness. The word alone means all in one, exclusive, entirely or fully complete.
To dissect the word alone it has tree meaning ALL IN ONE – ALONE. Being ALONE is not being lonely. And alone is not loneliness. Furthermore,
loneliness is not the absent of people around you, it is the absent of purpose of your life. Therefore, singleness is not being alone. Singleness is
finding yourself. Thus, generally, when you become yourself, now you are ready to be alone, ready to mingle for relationship. That’s why relationship
is only as successful as you are a single. The oppositely is what all we want all the way is to be alone and we’re not yet single. In short, the
prerequisite of alone is to be single first.

SIX (6) SELECTED MYTH ABOUT SINGLENESS:

RELATIONSHIPS ARE BETTER THE MORE SINGLE YOU BECOME.
1 “WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? THERE MUST BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOU.” - Singleness is where you work on you. Know your true
identity. Know what God created for you to do on your time on Earth. As it states in 1 Corinthians 7 MSG, “The time and energy that married people
spend on caring for and nurturing each other, the unmarried can spend in becoming whole and holy instruments of God.” Singleness is more
important than marriage because your marriage is as only as good as your singleness.
2. SINGLE PEOPLE ARE LONELY - There’s a difference between being alone and lonely. Some may feel unfulfilled by being single. A major reason
is that they haven’t tied the knot to fulfilling their purpose. Finding empty voids in multiple relationships, excessive spending, addictions, and so on
are for the purposeless single. It’s also some of the major causes of divorce.
LONELINESS – It doesn’t mean alone, loneliness is not the absent of people around you, it is the absent of direction for your life, your purpose.
Being alone is being secure. Not looking for validation from others and constantly seeking outwardly than inwardly. Constant loneliness is when
something is missing. A single person can have these feelings as well as those in relationships. Going into a relationship to cure loneliness is the
wrong reason to get into a relationship with anyone. A successful single is one that is secure within (flaws and all), learned to love themselves as
well as others. Your singleness makes you attractive. I’m not saying that you will not get married; we’re explaining the true essence of what is really
meant by singleness.

3. SINGLES ARE ALWAYS PURSUING RELATIONSHIPS. (AKA “THIRSTY”) - Contrary to this statement, there are many single people secure in
being single. They are not defined by a status. And no, they don’t want someone else’s mate to borrow. Singleness is a time to discover you.
Acknowledging the flaws and your strengths. A secure single is one who is not overly eager at every person in pursuit of them. Knowing what they
have to offer yet not settling in life and definitely not in relationships. Their value is an investment in the community around them, in the marketplace,
and known with family and friends. Successful singles are those that know how to cultivate relationships before, during, and after a romantic
relationship. Until you are separate, unique, and whole, you are not ready for marriage.

4. SINGLES ARE BITTER - Anyone can be bitter. Singles in particular experience bitterness that rooted from rejection. A major part of being a
successful single person is one that takes the proper time to be healed from hurt. That timeline may be different. It’s imperative to have the right
circle around you. The saying, “The best thing for a woman to do is get under another man’s arms after being hurt by a man” are alternative facts.
That’s being cut and bleeding on others without proper healing. As it says in the good book of Eccleisiates 3, “There’s a time for everything. A time to
heal, to break down, build up,” and so on. Your timeline is yours. Don’t feel pressured to introduce kids in your world or rush to dating without
properly being healed. You’re not a half of a percent. You’re whole all by yourself.

5. SINGLES ARE INCOMPLETE - There are many songs out there that give too much power for another person when it comes to relationships.
Partnership, compatibility, loyalty and the like is wonderful. Music is a form of worship. We can adore a person but not worship a person. (Sorry
Beyonce, I don’t want to be crazy in love). We have to renew our mindsets and the way we look at relationships as a whole. You’re whole being
single. Enjoy time with yourself. Take a trip out of town, dine yourself, or take yourself out to the movies. You have to enjoy you before someone else
does. Be comfortable in the skin you’re in.
SEVEN (7) KEYS TO SELF-LOVE:
1. Self-love is a result of self-discovery 5. Self-love is a result of self-concept
2. Self-love is a result of self-worth 6. Self-love is result of self-identity.
3. Self-love is a result of self-esteem 7. Self-love is a result of self-value.
PREPARED BY: MARK P. CIANO, MSCRIM
PAGE 37 OF 39
4. Self-love is a result of self-esteem THEREFORE: Self-value is the source of true singleness.

SINGLE AND INFLUENCE: PRINCIPLES:

1. Every human was created to influence their world.
2. INFLUENCE – Is the capacity to impact one’s environment, people and circumstances through Presence, Performance, Personality and
Competent.
NOTE: Influence is earned overtime through the consistent Commitment and Dedication to a personal goal, Conviction, Discipline or
Cause at the expense of Self-Preservation.
SINGLE SUCCESS: PRINCIPLES:
1. Influence – Power will produce leadership. It is the ability to control your circumstances.
POWER – Is the dynamic influence, change, improvement, development, and advancement through your gifts as the source of your authority. Your
gift is the source of your influence which serve as your power.
2. Influence power will result in personal success. 5. Value is determined by the worth you bring to life.
3. The key to influence is value. 6. Worth is determined by your significance.
4. If you want to be successful do not seek success, seek to influence. Seek to become a person of value.
SINGLE AND SIGNIFICANT: PRINCIPLES:
1. You were created to dominate in life in an area of Gifting.
2. Your Gift given is to solve a problem or meet a need in your generation.
3. Your gift is your area of significance and your gift attracts wealth and affluence.
4. Discovery, development, refinement, and serving of your gift to the world.
5. People are attracted to your gift not your personality. And your gift makes you valuable. Lastly, your gift makes you more attractive than your looks.
GIFT- It is the inherent capacity to carry out and fulfill your purpose or function that meets a need in creation.

NOTE: You are not ready for marriage until you don’t need nobody. Some people are so busy looking for who they want; they don’t have
time for being who they are. Or let’s say don’t ever become so preoccupied by who you want to be that you forget to be who you are. So when they
do find who they were looking for, they don’t have nobody to give them.
PART 14: SLIGHT PRESENTATION OF THE GRAND ORIGINAL DESIGN: GRAND PLAN OF THE KING FOR EARTH AND
MAN – HEAVEN’S EARTHLY KINGDOM MANDATE: TRUE FREEDOM
KEY CONCEPTS: The Original Message and ideas of Jesus Christ was to restore the Cultural of the Kingdom GOVERNMENT of heaven to
earth.
1. The goal of God was to colonize earth with the kingdom culture of heaven. 4. The kingdom of heaven is the first original invisible nation
2. Man was created to manifest a community of heaven on earth. 5. All nations are built on law
3. Earth was created to be a colony of heaven. 6. Laws produce the CULTURE of the community of a nation.
NOTE: You cannot appropriate or experience what you keep postponing.

KINGDOM CONCEPT AND PRINCIPLES:

A. The Colonization of earth with the Kingdom GOVERNMENT and Culture of heaven is the motivation of all the actions, ministry and redemptive
work of Jesus Christ.
B. The Kingdom GOVERNMENT Cultural earthly extension Concept is the foundation of all theological perspectives, positions conclusions from the
Message of Jesus Christ.
C. The primary content of the Bible is the Cultural Colonization of earth with the Kingdom GOVERNMENT of Heaven and it is the principle and
primary context for understanding the message of Jesus.
D. The purpose of God is to dominate earth with the government and culture of heaven.
E. The Kingdom GOVERNMENT came to earth to consume earth.
F. The Kingdom GOVERNMENT citizens are not on earth to co-exist but to take over.
G. The Great Commission is kingdom GOVERNMENT expansion on earth.
H. The primary content of the Bible is the Kingdom GOVERNMENT strategy for National Transformation through Heavenly GOVERNMENT cultural
integration and infiltration of earth with the Kingdom of Heaven and it is the principle and primary context for understanding the message of Jesus.
I. The way a king administrates his colony is through a governor. The king sends the governor into a colony to extend his influence. The governor
represents the king in this territory.
REEMPHASIS – GRAND ORIGINAL DESIGN OF THE KING:
God original purpose and plan was to extend His heavenly Kingdom to the earth-to bring His invisible supernatural rule into the visible
natural domain. It was for this reason that He created mankind-male and female-in His own image and likeness and clothed them in physical bodies
of flesh and blood and bone made from the same stuff as the earth itself, that they might exercise dominion over the earth just as He did in Heaven.
They were to be His vice-regents, ruling in His name and under His authority. He wants to rule the scene from the unseen through the invisible Spirit
from the unseen live inside the body (physical flesh) for the seen scene called earth. Purposely, to make and manifest the invisible be visible for the
visible. To become the unseen be seen for the scene. What is in the invisible is also the same and manifest on the visible scene. Furthermore, for
this purpose, the unseen will manifest in the seen scene (earth). In other words, God wants to colonies earth with the Kingdom of Heaven through
man. He wants to extent His invisible Kingdom to the visible physical earth. This is the concept of the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth.
KING’S ORIGINAL PLAN:
The original purpose of God is to rule the seen world through the unseen world (Kingdom Government) through the unseen man (Spirit)
living in the seen (physical) body on the seen earth.

BRIEFLY, colonization is a process whereby a government or ruler determines to extent His Kingdom, rulership, or influence to additional
territory with the purpose of impacting the territory with His will, and desires. The principle of colonization is understood in the process of transforming an
extended territory to be just like the center of government from which it extended; that is, to manifest the nature and will of the ruler in the lifestyle, actions,
activities, and culture of the territory. In other words, when a Kingdom extents His rulership to a distant territory and turns it just like the Kingdom, it becomes
their colony. In short, the purpose of colonization is to make that territory (colony) just like the Kingdom. In simple connotation, to make earth just like Heaven
or let’s say earth is the visible Heaven. For further simple implication, in other words, we are here on this planet earth, to make visible, to manifest or reflects
what is Heaven looks like. It is not about escapism, fly away and/ or going to heaven, it is all about Dominion. In essence, we are walking Heaven with two
legs. We are ambassador representing a country not a religious christianity or charchianity. That’s why it stated in our Kingdom Constitution that the Kingdom
of God is not about merely observation and watching of your surrounding or environment and asking yourself or wandering where is the Kingdom of God.
Rather, the Kingdom of God with you and within you because the Governor is in you. This is the mind of God, the Father, the King. It is a practical Kingdom
with laws not a theoretical kingdom. That’s why a Kingdom is the governing influence of a King over His territory impacting it with His will, power, principles,
laws, values, and morals producing a Community of Citizens reflecting the Culture and lifestyle of the King. A Kingdom is a territory ruled by the King where
everything is provided by the King. The preceding claims are underpinned by our Kingdom constitution itself to mention some, in Genesis 1:26; Isaiah 9:6 to
7; Mathew 6:9 to 10; and so on. As a matter of fact, the entire Kingdom Constitution, the original Constitution, the Bible is only talks about the Kingdom of
Heaven on Earth.

 This implies that a Kingdom is not a religion. It is a country, nation rule by the sovereign King to a distant colony impacting that extended territory
with His will, plans, motivation, laws, principles, culture and morals which reflects in the lifestyle of the Kings’ citizen. It is a real country or nation not a fairy
tale stories about religion which to manipulate and control individuals. It is a Government, Government means order; it is the only and the original source of
peace, order and justice. In essence, the Government is the order, peace and justice itself. Ever since the creation, Ancient of Days, the center of power and
authority on this planet Earth is the Government of the Kingdom of God, no other external or internal separate or included entities which foreign to the
Kingdom of God. Ancient of Days means it is the Source which came from nothing out of nowhere. What do I mean is before everything was there was God,
and everything is in God in Him alone. He was preexisted before everything was made and manifested. That’s why He is the Alpha and Omega no beginning
and no ending. This proved that, Source means Abba Father, the King, and the Creator - vice versa. Pertinently, this is the promised of God the King, the
Abba Father, the Source or the Creator to Moses when He decided to extricate them from Egypt to the Promised Land. It is a promised of a Nation not a
religion.
FURTHERMORE, it is certainly, and vehemently believes nowadays that religion is the reason why youth are out of order. All of these are the
results of the indoctrination of religion in the past on us. Consequently, conflicts, division, confusion, chaos and even wars are being continues to experience
among nation and fellow human beings until this present time. That’s why, nowadays, or from this point forward, paradigm shift is necessary or is a must.
Paradigm shift means going back or returning to our original state set of mentality. In fact, this command is ever since designedly and purposely initiated by
the King Himself during His days. He keeps reiterating and explaining even in some of His parable which conveys an implication to the mind of man. As His
prerequisite of His premeditated programed plan in returning back what man’s lost which is His Kingdom. In which is always was theirs inheritance since the
creation and foundation of the world. Personally speaking, it is this motivation for me or purpose in designed to keep on seeking the Kingdom of God and His
righteousness. We will not allow again oppression repeat its cycle. Otherwise, we will repeat the cycle of our history. Until ignorance is not address,
oppression, frustration, experimentation and artificial growth is being continued to experience.

THUS, BEWARE OF MIND INTERPRETATION – PRINCIPLES ARE FIXED - PRECEPTS BEFORE CONCEPTS
1. The power of the oppressor is in the maintenance of ignorance. Dr. MM.
2. The greatest crisis of the human race is “Identity Crisis”. It’s a tragedy to live life under identity crisis.
3. Self-image – The idea one has about his or her abilities, appearance, and personality.
4. Consistency is a law of favor. Or favor is the result of being consistency.
5. The greatest ideal of nations is freedom. But freedom without law is anarchy. Law protects freedom from anarchy.
6. Nothing is yours until you discover it. Dr. MM.
7. Stop living by your feeling; start living by principle… faith.
8. Our real problem on the World is not the Government not even economic crisis, but identity crisis.
9. You cannot live “Kingship” in a slave mentality.

THE SOURCE OF TRUE FREEDOM

Human rights are inherent in God’s creation of human beings, whereas civil rights are merely man’s opinion of what human beings should
be and have.
WHAT IS THE TRUE FREEDOM THAT WE NEED?
Fore mostly, freedom cannot be given. Freedom is not bestowed on us. We embrace it. Freedom cannot be declared in a speech or
through legislation; rather, it is personally discovered by the heart and spirit of each individual.
IN CONCLUSION:
1. When you understand your true freedom, you appreciate what is meant by nationhood.
2. True Patriotism and Nationalism is only understand and appreciated when you understand your true freedom and apply them.
3. True Patriotic and Nationalistic is only found only in true freedom – that’s Nationhood.
4. True freedom is the key to being true Patriotic and Nationalistic.
5. Nationhood is the result of understanding true freedom.
6. Nationhood is the integration and result of being Patriotic and Nationalistic, and this only found in true freedom.
7. If you understand what is meant by nationhood is true freedom, you will love more, and care your country.
8. If you understand what is meant by nationhood is true freedom, you will be more proud of as being a Filipinos (Maharlikans and Ophirians).
9. Finally, true freedom can only experience in the Kingdom of the King.
10. At last… True Freedom…. WE’RE PROUD TO SAY
“PEARL OF THE ORIENT” – “LAND OF OPHIR” – “MAHARLIKANS” – “OPHIRIANS” – ARE FILIPINOS
NOTHING IS YOURS, UNTIL YOU REDISCOVER OR UNDERSTANDS IT.
THOUGHTS TO PONDER: Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside of them was
superior to circumstance.
