MGA ARAL NANG
KATIPUNAN
NG MGA A.N.B.
(The Teachings of the
Katipunan)
1.A life that is not dedicated to a noble
and divine cause is like a tree without
a shade, if not, a poisonous weed.

2. A deed that is motivated by self-

interest or self-pity and done without
sincerity lacks nobility.
3. True piety is the act of being
charitable, loving one's fellowmen, and
being judicious in behavior, speech and
deed.
4. We are all equal, regardless of the color
of their skin; While one could have more
education, wealth or beauty than the
other, none of them can overpass one's
identity.
5. A person with a noble character values
honor above self-interest, while a person
with a base character values self-interest
above honor.

6. To a man with a sense of shame, his

word is inviolate.
7. Do not waste your time; lost wealth
can be retrieved, but time lost is lost
forever.

8.Defend the oppressed and fight the

oppressor.
9. A wise man is someone who is careful
in all that he says; learn to keep the
things that need to be kept secret.

10. In the thorny path of life, the man

leads the way and his wife and children
follow; If the leader goes the way of evil,
so do the followers.
11. Never regard a woman as an object
for you to trifle with; rather you should
consider her as a partner and a friend in
times of need; Give proper
considerations to a woman's frailty and
never forget that your own mother, who
brought you forth and nurtured you from
infancy, is herself such a person.
12. Do not do to the wife, children
and brothers and sisters of others
what you do not want others to do to
your wife, children and brothers and
sisters.
13. A (person's) worth is not measured by his/her
status in life, neither by the length of his nose nor
the fairness of skin, and certainly not by whether
he is a priest claiming to be God's deputy. Even if
he is a tribesman/tribeswoman from the hills and
speaks only his/her own tongue, a (person) is
honorable if he/she possesses a good character, is
true to his/her word, has fine perceptions and is
loyal to his/her native land.
14.When these teachings shall have
been propagated and the glorious sun
of freedom begins to shine on these
poor islands to enlighten a united race
and people, then all the loves lost, all
the struggle and sacrifices shall not
have been in vain.
