Philippine Collective for Modern Heroism
Kaya Mong Maging DAKILA audio and video cd is now available. For orders, please contact us at dakila.philippines@yahoo.com. We only ask for a minimum of P50 donation to cover the production cost.
The idea of heroism sounds a little daft in a culture of game shows and celebrity video-phone scandals. Irony has become such an accidental virtue that it has swung back to hit us in the head. Calling someone a “hero” is to invite sarcasm and self-righteousness. So here we are now, living in a time tragically bereft of them.
Heroes are products of circumstance. There are those who have become so through sheer will, but there are people who become heroes after being pushed to a dead end.
A wise man once said our past shapes our response to the present. This nation was formed on the sacrifices made by martyrs both immortalized and anonymous. A country need not be a colony of a foreign power— it can also be the fiefdom of its own leaders. We are a heroic people, but we can also be shackled by our own pessimism and apathy.
A hero resides in every one of us. It begins in the mind, with one thought that says it can be done. To do all things with pride and dignity, to learn from the lessons of history, to realize that the deeds of our heroes are not hackneyed fables but real, breathing examples of how to live our lives.
This is a song about nobility. Listen.

"Art is not a mirror held up to reality but a hammer with which to shape it" - Bertolt Brecht
Artists' Credo
We, in DAKILA, believe that . . .
Nobility begins in the mind and ends in action.
Nobility knows no social and economic status— all human beings possess an innate sense of honor and dignity.
True nobility is not defined by pedigree or wealth but by one’s actions.
Art is one of the noblest human endeavors— the only way of expressing the inexpressible.
Art does not exist in a vacuum. After his own self, the artist has a responsibility towards the reality that surrounds him.
Art may not change the world, but it can change the way we view the world. For true revolution begins in the imagination.
We recognize all those who have sacrificed their lives in the past so that our freedom and the nobility of the race may live on— we recognize our heroes, our martyrs, the disciples of the arts who have dedicated themselves to the truest, noblest cause. We honor them by treading the same path.
The Philippine society is in the midst of a significant upheaval and that as disciples of the creative act, we are not exempted from the responsibility of helping contribute to positive change. Now, more than ever, is the time to be DAKILA.
