Ethics 1
In the pursuit of the Sikolohiyang Pilipino movement, Enriqueas clarified what Sikolohiyang Pilipino is
and made three distinctions of psychology, in such a way that made realizing this movement more focused
and easier. These three distinctions were Sikolohiyang Pilipino which is the
Words are world bearing. It carries meaning. There are no neutral culture, and it includes language. Ethics
are more into
Orientalism
- all of the rational, organized, is west
- Mystery is in the east
Pilosopiyang Pilipino
Di lahat ng kagalingan ay may dalang katamisan, di lahat ng kapaitan ay tanda ng kasamaan.
Differentiate what sweet and bitter is ethics.
Who pholosophieses, sino ba muna ang Pilipino
Given na Pilipino, may pilipino pilosopo
Kung may Pilosopiyang Pilipino, may Pilipino Ethics dahil ang ethics ay under philosophy
>Pagpapakatao ni Florentino Hornedo
Pagpapakatao: Rational animal, hayop na may matwid
Tao: both spirit and matter
Kulong and spirit sa katawan. Evil ang body as it is a matter.
Simbahan ay para sa kaluluwa lamang, kaya walang CR or tubig sa church
sa edukasyon: kailangan idisiplina ang katawan,
A peroson is their sould and their body
In these day
Ang tao ay hindi lamang may katawan, SIYA ang katawan
Kain muna, bago philosophy: pagsasangkapan ng espiritu at katawan
Siya rin ang may kakulangan sa magpahalagahan ng pagkatao
Kamalayan: may kamalayanang tao, he recognizes his surroundings due to this
Kamalayang: 1. ang malay tao, 2. ang nilalaman ng malay tao
Pwedeng may malay tao pero walang laman.
Pag walang namamalayan ang tao
Sila ay nauuhaw sa namamalayan
namamalayan=nalalaman
Antas ng kamalayan:
Kamalayan tungkol sa 1. bagay at sa 2. kabuluhan
Ano ang laman ng kamalayan? O alam mo rin ng kahulugan behind the bagay, or event.
di lahat ng kapaitan ay tanda ng kasamaan.
Pain and suffering is bagay. But if you understand the things behind your suffering, world is more colorful
Ako ay may katawan: wag mo tapakan ang aking paa
Ako ang aking katawan: wag mo akong tapakan, we are depriving the body and their pagkatao
Namamagitna ang katawan: between loob and the daigdig.
Pagka-maykasayasyan: May saysay ang kasaysayan
Malikhain ang tao: Apart form arts, you can create your history, a chapter in our life
Malaga din ang paggawa sa tao o work
If no work = katamaran; nakakabawas ng pagpapakatao
Nakikilala ang sarili sa gawa: sinasalamin nito ang nasa iyong kalooban
May kalooban:
kalayaan at pananagutan:
With great freedom comes with great responsibility
Katarungan,
ako at ang lipunan
ako ay ako dahil sa lipunan,, proyekto natin nag isa't isa
Ako bilang ikae, at ako bilang ikaw: how you treat others should be
ang tao ay patungo sa kamatayan
Is death the end of meron ding search
LECTURE INSIGHTS:
A person is both their spirit and body. So katulad po ng example last meeting about pain and suffering:
Yung sa part na wag mo tapakan ang aking paa, relates to the pain of the body where pain is treated as an
object or a tangible experience that affects the body. Pero yung sa part na “wag mo akong tapakan,” it
relates to the pain of the spirit. In this context, we are not just acknowledging pain externally, but we are
understanding the emotional distress of a person. So, the body serves as the bridge between our inner
selves, which encompass our values, emotions, and moral compass, and the external world we engage
with. It prompts us to recognize that our actions affect people physically and emotionally.
Module 3: Asian ethical frameworks and Religious Conceptions
Moral reasoning in Asian context:
1. Ethics as a way of life
2. Ethics as spiritual liberation
3. Religious conceptions of ethics
I.
Ethics as a way of life: Daoism and Confucianism
1. Daoism
Go with the flow of the Dao (Nature or the Absolute Path). Dao is the metaphysical notion of
Truth and Reality; usually described as paradoxial.
The concept of "De" and the practice of "Wei-Wu-Wei" remind us to ride along the flow of the
Dao or the absolute path and to not resist nature’s course. So by not acting, we let ourselves be
carried with the natural flow of life. Just like the Filipino concept of "bahala na," it means to just
surrender to fate or let life unfold rather than trying to control it.
