Pasyon and the Masses The masses' experience of Holy Week fundamentally shaped
the style of peasant brotherhoods and uprisings.

much of the language of anticolonialism in the late 19th century. Understanding the
Philippine Society "go beyond the subject of the masses and their participation in

The Philippine society as patron-client oriented.
The current shape of our society is triangular, with a wealthy and educated fraction
of the population at the apex. CONCLUSION The pasyon was a reaction of the
Filipinos to Spanish colonialism which resulted in a revolution. It grew within the
context of the fanatic religiosity of the masses. The pasyon became an impetus for
local uprisings and an expedient for change as exemplified by such groups as the
Katipunan, Cofradia de San Jose, Colorum Society, Macario Sakays Katipunan,
Santa Iglesia and other local movements.
Instead of glorifying the Ilustrados, Ileto succeeded on his goal to show the
revolution on the perspectives of the peasants.
Ileto also succeeded on giving importance to the role of the peasants in the
Philippine revolution under the Spanish and American regimes.
"Without the masses experiences of the pasyon, the revolution against Spain would
have taken a much different form. PASYON AND REVOLUTION: Popular Movements
in the Philippines, 1840-1910 Professor Reynaldo C. Ileto is a leading scholar of the
Philippine revolution, Southeast Asia's first anti-colonial and pro-independence
conflict. He has developed an interdisciplinary field of research that incorporates
history with literature, religion, and cultural studies. "...to rectify the tendency of the
historians before him to regard the revolution as the handiwork of the upper class,
Hispanized natives. GREAT TRADITION "Rational" and Realistic" goals
LITTLE TRADITION "...the peasant-based, religious oriented challenges to the
republic were anti-nationalist, irrational and doomed to fail" "Rational" and Realistic"
goals "genuine vehicles for the expression of the people's dream of national
liberation and economic amelioration." Two Contradictory functions of Pasyon in the

Jesucristong Panginoon Natin Incoherence, faulty scholarship, repetitiveness, and
clumsy, inaccurate use of language.
The social epic of the 19th century
The inclusion of episodes relating to the Creation of the World, the Fall of Man, and
the Last Judgment makes the Pasyon Pilapil an image of universal history, the
beginning and end of tim, rather than a simple gospel story. Power and AntingAnting These amulets or special powers played a significant role in the thinking and
motivation of peasant rebels, bandits, soldiers and even generals of the
revolutionary army. Katipunan Manifestos deals with the formation of the Katipunan
and how it was very well connected to the people's belief in the "Pasyon" and
"liwang ng loob." The author tried to show that different manifestos by Katipunan,
printed in Kalayaan, were actually inspired by the Pasyon. Initiation Rites Earlier
authors pointed out that the initiation rites of Katipunan was borrowed from the
Mason rites but analyzing the words and phrases used by the Katipuneros, Ileto
revealed its connection to the events in the Pasyon. Return of King Bernardo Carpio
The Bernardo Carpio story appears to have been appropriated by the peasants as a
one way of imaging their hopes for a better life, free from oppression and foreign
rule.
Bernardo Carpio is considered the savior of the Filipinos against national oppression
and enslavement Lakaran of the Sons In this part of the book, Ileto examined a
poem credited to Andres Bonifacio's brother, Procopio.
"The poem can be understood only if the revolution itself is viewed not merely as
the overthrowing of a foreign power but as a transition between two world" and
separation of a child (the Philippines) from its mother (Spain) just like the separation
of Mary and her son Jesus as depicted in the Pasyon.
The poem also depicts that the Filipinos are upon to embark upon the struggle,
which is imaged as every man's lakaran. The struggle was seen as similar to Jesus'
emotional and painful separation from his mother.
