JOSE RIZAL’S EXILE IN DAPITAN (1892-1896)
Jose Rizal's arrival in Manila on June 26, 1892
It had become very sensational among the Filipinos. His popularity feared the Spaniards, and as such, payed careful attention to his every moves – all houses where he had been were searched and the Filipinos seen in his company were suspected.
As he had planned, on July 3, 1892 he founded the La Liga Filipina in the house of Doroteo Ongjunco in Tondo, Manila. - Four days after the civic organization's foundation, Jose Rizal was arrested by the Spanish authorities
Reasons why Rizal exiled in Dapitan
1. For publishing anti-Catholic and anti-friar books and articles; - Rizal had published books and articles abroad which showed disloyalty to Spain and which were “frankly anti-Catholic” and “imprudently anti-friar” 2. For having in possession a bundle of handbills, the Pobres Frailes, in which advocacies were in violation of the Spanish orders; - A few hours after his arrival in Manila, there was found in one of the packages a bundle of handbills entitled Pobre Frailes in which the patient and humble generosity of Filipino is satirized, and which accusation is published againt the customs of religious orders. 3. For dedicating his novel, El Filibusterismo to the three “traitors” (Gomez, Burgos and Zamora) and for emphasizing on the novel's title page that “the only salvation for the Philippines was separation from the mother country (referring to Spain)”; and 4. For simply criticizing the religion and aiming for its exclusion from the Filipino culture. - The end he pursues in his efforts and writings is to fear from the loyal Filipino breasts and treasures of our Catholic Faith
Arrival in Dapitan Aboard the steamer Cebu and under heavy guard, Rizal left Manila, sailing to Mindoro and Panay, until he reached Dapitan at seven o'clock in the evening of June 17.
(Voice Over) ( DI na kasama sa ppt)
Bago tumuloy ang steamer ay binasahan siya ng hatol ni Capitan Carcinero at nakatanggap siya ng sulat mula kay Padre Pastells.
(Hawak pa rin si Rizal ng guardia habang binabasahan siya ng hatol sa kanya. May mga taong nakaupo sa steamer.)
CC: Anong pangalan mo?
Jose: Jose Protacio Rizal Mercado y Alonso Realonda.
CC: (May isusulat sa isang papel, tatayo at babasahan si Jose.) Ikaw, Jose Protacio Rizal Mercado y Alonso Realonda, ay ipinatatapon sa Dapitan sa kasong panguupat ng pagaalsa laban sa Espaniya at sa Simbahan. Ikaw ay mananatili doon sa loob ng apat na taon sa ilalim ng aking superbisyon. Naiintindihan mo ba ang hatol na ito sa iyo?
(Hindi sasagot si Jose. Uupo siya sa gitna ng steamer, aalis ang guardia at si CC. Darating ang isang kartero na may dalang sulat para kay Jose.)
Kartero: Donde estan Jose Rizal?
Jose: Si! Tengo una carta?
Kartero: Galing ho kay Padre Pablo Pastells.
Jose: Akin nga iyan. (May ipapipirma ang kartero. Bubuksan ni Jose ang sulat at babasahin ito. Iparirinig sa voice over ang nilalaman ng sulat.)
Padre Pastells Compana de Jesus Filipinas Jose, Magandang araw sa iyo! Sana ay natanggap mo ang liham na ito na nasa mabuti kang kalagayan. Kung ako naman ang iyong tatanungin, ako ay mabuti naman sa awa at tulong ng Dios. Nabalitaan ko ang pagpapatapon sa iyo sa Dapitan kaya dali-dali akong sumulat kay Padre Obach upang ipaalam sa kanya ang iyong kalagayan at pangangailangan. Sinabi niya sa akin na maaarin kang tumira sa kumbento ng Simbahan kung susundin mo lang ang mga payo niya sa iyo. Una, gusto niyang bawiin mo ang lahat ng sinabi mo laban sa Iglesia Katolika at na gumawa ka ng mga pahayag na kontra-rebolusyon. Pangalawa, gusto niyang magbalikloob ka sa Simbahan at magkumpisal. Panghuli, gusto niya na kumilos ka ng naaayon sa mga gawi ng alipin ng Espaniya at gawi ng mga pananampalataya. Sana ay basbasan ka ng Dios sa mga plano mo. Laging gumagabay, Padre Pastells
Jose: Hindi! Hindi ako papayag sa mga kundisyong ito para lang makapanirahan ng walang bayad sa kumbento kasama ng mga prayle. Hinding hindi ko babawiin ang mga nasabi ko laban sa relihiyon dahil ang lahat ng mga iyon ay tama. Aso lang ang kumakain ng sarili niyong iniluwa.
Bakit ako magbabalikloob sa Simbahan at magkukumpisal? Bakit ako magkukumpisal sa mga
taong gaya ko ay makasalanan? Maninindigan ako sa mga bagay na ipinaglalaban ko at hinding hindi ako magpapataboy sa mga kundisyon ng sinuman. (new slide) LIFE OF RIZAL IN DAPITAN Challenging the Religion Rizal had a scholarly debate with Father Pablo Pastells regarding religion. - This exchange of heated arguments revealed the anti-Christian Rizal – his bitterness on the abuses performed by friars, doing such under the name of the sacred religion.
Father Pastells tried his best to win Rizal back to the faith but fortunately or unfortunately, in vain. - These series of debate ended inconclusively in which neither of them convinced the other of his judgments/arguments.
