WHAT DOES HERO OR BAYANI MEANS?

- A hero, or "bayani" in Filipino, embodies qualities of courage, selflessness, and


sacrifice. Beyond physical strength, a hero demonstrates moral integrity and a
commitment to a greater cause.
- In Filipino culture, "bayani" goes beyond individual deeds, often representing
those who contribute to the collective well-being and progress of the community
or nation.
- The concept emphasizes not just extraordinary acts but also everyday heroism in
service to others and the common good.
SALITANG BAYANI SA PILIPINAS

- The word "bayani" is an Austronesian term brought by our natives to our country.
Heroes are warriors who lead in defending the community against facing
enemies and dangers. Some dialects of the word "bayani" include bajani, majani,
bagabnim, and bahani.

These levels are recognized as:


1.) Maniklad 4.) Luto
2.) Hanagan 5.) Lunugum
3.) Kinaboan

These levels are classifications of heroes based on their achievements in battle:

1. MANIKLAD - The lowest rank of hero who has killed one or two enemies.
(wearing a red and yellow headgear)

2. HANAGAN - The second level, undergoing a ritual where they are supposed to
be possessed by Tagbusaw, the God of War, and consume the liver and heart of
the enemy. (red headgear)

3. KINABUAN - Has killed twenty-seven to twenty-nine enemies. (red trousers)

4. LUTO - Has killed fifty to one hundred enemies. (red jacket)

5. LUNUGUM - Killing the enemy within the confines of their home. (typically wears
black)

THE CHANGING FORMS AND DEFINITIONS OF BAYANI AND KABAYANIHAN

(1) Especially when anchored on the definitions given by old dictionaries, mga bayani
may historically (and profoundly) refer to those who contributed to the birth of a nation

(2) However, the modern-day bayani may refer to someone who contributes to a nation
in a global world.

(3) One case in point is our Overseas Fiipino Wokrkers (OFW's)- Filipinos who are
working in foreign countries.
WHY IS RIZAL THE GREATEST FILIPINO HERO THAT EVER LIVED?

- He is our greatest hero because he took an “admirable part” in the Propaganda


Campaign from 1882-1896.
- He expressed his love for the Philippines through his novels, essays, and articles
instead of through the utilization of force or aggression.
- He fought for freedom in a silent but powerful way.

RIZAL AND PHILIPPINE NATIONALISM

- Jose Rizal, born in 1861, significantly influenced Philippine nationalism. Through


his novels, "Noli Me Tangere" and "El Filibusterismo," he exposed Spanish
abuses, fostering a sense of national identity. Advocating for reforms and
founding La Liga Filipina in 1892, Rizal aimed for peaceful change.
- His martyrdom in 1896 solidified him as a symbol of the Filipino struggle for
independence, inspiring future revolutionaries. Rizal's legacy underscores the
importance of unity and education in the pursuit of national identity and freedom.

RIZAL AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF PHILIPPINE NATIONALISM

- José Rizal is widely regarded as a key figure in the development of Philippine


nationalism. Through his writings, actions, and unwavering commitment to social
change, he played a pivotal role in igniting the flames of nationalism among
Filipinos during the late 19th century. Rizal's novels, "Noli Me Tangere" and "El
Filibusterismo," acted as powerful tools that exposed the injustices and abuses
suffered by Filipinos under Spanish colonial rule.
- These literary masterpieces not only depicted the harsh realities of the era but
also served as a call to action, urging his fellow countrymen to rise against
oppression and fight for their rights.Rizal's martyrdom further fueled the flames of
nationalism.
- His execution by the Spanish authorities in 1896 turned him into a martyr,
transforming his ideals and sacrifices into a rallying point for the Philippine
Revolution against Spanish rule. His unwavering dedication to the country's
cause, coupled with his intellectual prowess, made him a symbol of resistance
and a catalyst for unity among Filipinos striving for independence.

PROPAGANDA MOVEMENT

- The Propaganda Movement encompassed the activities of a group of Filipinos


who called for political reforms in their land in the late 19th century.
- It's goal is to make the Spaniards acknowledge Philippine as their province so
that Filipinos gain equal treatment (human rights, freedom of speech)
Filipinization of Philippine parishes.

● Failure of propaganda movement


- But the ideas of freedom and justice which sowed paved around for the
Philippine revolution that the katipunan and Andres Bonifacio began in the
hills of balintawak in August 1896.
