o Separation from Spain by means of revolution
o THE 14 RULES IN KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
o THE FIRST HIGHLIGHTS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF LIVING LIFE WITH A PURPOSE
- A Katipunero who does not have a purpose lives are a useless life.
- This tenet actually defines what life is.
- Life is a gift given to everyone that must be treasured by making it meaningful through setting up
goals and achieving it no matter how hard it is.
o THE SECOND RULE IS ABOUT DOING WHAT IS RIGHT
- A deed carried out for the sake of fame is not worthy of praise.
- There are certain things in life that would make others proud because of you but sometimes it's done
just to be popular
- Everyone must bear in mind that doing good must be accompanied with humbleness.
- A deed that is done must be because of what someone really feels like doing to help other peopleo
