during three centuries
● To prove Filipinos had a culture of their own, prior to colonization, that the Filipinos were NOT inferior to the white man
● To shatter the myth of the so-called “Indolence of the Filipinos”
● To reduce those Filipinos who denied their native tongue into rotten fish
● To seriously study Tagalog and produce a comprehensive Tagalog dictionary
● To embrace the generic term “Indio”, or in today’s case, Filipino, with all its negative connotations, and turn it into one of dignity and nobility
