GRAND MASTER RUBEN B. ECLEO, JR. MESSAGE May 17, 2002 Administration Building during Rubenian, Ushers and NYO Nite

I would like to give my greetings to Divine Master Ruben Edera Ecleo, Sr. and his companion in the Spiritual Division also to Mommy Glen, our Ambassador of Goodwill, at the same time the Congresswoman of 1st District of Surigao del Norte and to my brother Benglen, to all my family circle, circle of Ecleo and international. Please welcome Benglen Ecleo, Ruben the 1st yan, Ruben the 1st kasi kaming dalawa ng daddy wala kaming numero kasi dapat nito the 3rd ang tawag nito, a explanation sa daddy ko is dapat yan the 1st dahil kami ni bobong wala kaming ano, everybody is amenable to that. And to all the members, our...my greetings also to the Elep Family, also my greetings to the angels, and everybody, lahat ng Ushers and Usherettes at lahat ng nandidito ngayon, sa delegations from all over the country and throughout the world, magandang magandang gabi sa inyong lahat.

This time, I’m gonna talk about the significance of the Rubenian International. Kasi marami sa atin ngayon ang hindi pa masyadong naintindihan kung ano talaga itong Rubenian International whether it be an another form of a working unit or what it is. What it signifies my friends is the early introduction of a, ahh…”ANOTHER ERA OF A LEADERSHIP TOWARDS THE FUTURE”. Kasi dati, yong contribution ko ditto sa PBMA is the formation of the Gold Eagle before. Yon ang nagiging contribution ko and that is where I am recognize by you guys, of course no kahit anong maliit pa ako narecognize nyo na ako. My biggest achievements is actually the Golden eagles before yong 100 na Gold eagles to support daddy’s medication and whatever expense he ask to incur in his lifetime.

Ngayon, my son, my eldest is…and the I told him… I want him to be recognized earlier than me. Because, I was recognize in the later years na of my life, nong malapit nang magretire ang lolo mo. Now, I’d like you to do something na… could be recognizable and appreciable by everyone in PBMA so that an another era of leadership will be recognize as early as possible. Para, syempre kanya-kanya man tayong panahon ba no. If my time will come na and then i’ts his term already, now hindi na kayo mahihirapan mag-adjust pa sa sarili nyo,kung what will be again another era of a leadership. Kasi minsan no, during my leadership, even until now when I started to be your leader and until now, meron pang mga question in mind ba no, and it is normal because probably there are things which cannot be done by my leadership that has been done by the previous administration. But there are also things that the previous administration has looked over, and then my administration has looked upon it so, its there to say that there is a great balance of achievement. Although we are not in a competition my friend for whatever achievements that we have but then the continuation only of what has been started. Yon po ang nagiging papel naming na mga leaders ninyo dito sa PBMA.

There are times wherein I was told by my Dad before na ang sabi niya, “Sa iyo ngayon ang papel na pagandahin an gating association” and then sabi ko naman sa kanya, “Daddy, ano ba ang form na pagpapaganda ng aking gagawin kundi everything is set by you already and that the people are already in there, no? Nandodoon nap o ang mga tao. What kind of an improvement will I do in order that I could do my mission as you have commissioned me to do and what else to be done?” Ang sabi niya, “My dear bobong”, sabi niya, “Hindi na yan pinoprogram naming, problema mo na yan, kasi ang amin dito, tapos na ang gawa naming dito. But, it will be continued by you and the coming leader”. So… well… I said to myself, sa mga nangyayari ngayon, puro pangangamba and nasa isip o sa puso ng tao. Puro pangangamba o puro kaba ang nasa isip ngayon ng tao, nasa puso ngayon ng tao. Ano ang magiging good achievement ko sa kanila? It’s my biggest question.

But then, ito pala ang nagiging achievement ko sa inyo: Na kahit na anong gawing lindol o gawing pagsubok sa mga detractors natin kasi alam na natin kung ano ang trabaho ng detractors. Kasi paminsan-minsan din naman daw masyado din naman daw unfair kung walang… kung wala ba din naman daw achievements an gating mga detractors. Kaya daw paminsan-minsan niyayanig tayo ng ganyan para sag anon we will be able to move forward with the commotions from out detractors, so, and then magiging achievements daw dyan, if we can manage to still be together and stay together whatever the consequences will be. Eh sa tingin ko medyo nandidito pa naman tayo, marami tayo! Tapos kahit na anong gawin ng mga detractors sa atin kahit na natalo ang ating Mommy Glen sa politika before, like we are still there and right now nanalo siya, na kahit na medyo mayroon na naman akong problema ngayon, ayan pa naman tayo no! We could not be moved, as already told na para bang hindi tayo magiging magkakahiwalay kahit na anong gawin ng mga detractors sa atin dahil yon again ang nagiging papel nila at natin sa buhay.

And then, whereas no, where as, it has been written already that several consequences will happen and that still be the thing or sabihin nating, the train will just move in its own terrain pero minsan daw may mga sagabal daw o mga balakid daw in the railway of our life kaya kung minsan daw ang train ay humihinto.

I look upon ourselves as a great train of the world because the association of the organization is a chain of people, where we are to consider the chapters, the delegations and the member itself… it groups like a train, the components of the train. A train has its own locomotive that is the lead, the lead head of the train, has the engine, whether it be steam powered or gas powered. Yong steam power noon po yong tinatawag nilang mayron silang sinusunog na coal. Coal no, diba gang? Coal, yan, its coal. Bengie knows that because he knows about engines no, nasa kanya na ngayon ang pagexplain sa inyo later niyan. He will explain to you what is a coal engine, lahat-laha tyan, siya nalang ang mag-explain sa inyo nyan. And then, they have this, the second part of the train, it is where the true members are. Kung mapapansin nyo sa train there are no people who will collect your tickets, but the tickets are collected in the station and then the crew members will just inspect where you’re seated. Those are… those people are in uniform, and they are very neatly delegating those people or the passengers to be seated where they are assigned. It is where the ushers will also appear, di ba? It’s where the ushers appear. And then, thirdly, yong engine, I mean the whole system is working through the management and leadership of the head engine or the head department which is actually way, way ahead of the train and the following the tracks of the railway. What it supposed to signify, the tracks of the railway? The tracks of the railway is signifying our organization or association as the railway. Yong mga rules ang regulations natin, yong mga projects natin, yong mga directives natin and yong mga pangarap ng ating samahan nandodoon na lahat whether it be ordinary or extraordinary ambitions. Nandodoon na po lahat yon and we are contained in one train and moving it smoothly but sometimes, wear and tear can cause the train to stop, sometimes. Sometimes also, the standing bad of the engine is being caused by lack of support. Nauubusan minsan ng sugnod, nauubusan minsan ng particular spare parts in order for it to move smoothly.

As I’m saying, we are now being faced by a challenge which is quite difficult also of course, because biruin mo ba naman ha, yong sinasabing… pagka daw pala you are under siege for so long a time, you can also be dull at times… You cannot move, you will be brittle by so many circumstances which is supposed to be shouldered by you, but supposed to be shouldered by the ones who are responsible. Only you are tasked to represent the one that is responsible so that your association will be moving again in a hurried way in order for you to save the consequences. Yon pala ang nagiging papel natin sa buhay. Now, I hope that in the near future, pagkatapos nitong mga… mga consequences na sinasabi ko, we can be again moving in a normal way na, no? Kasi minsan nakikita ko kayo no, you are… you are worried I know you are pressured by those detractors, pero pag may nagtanong sa inyo na parang detractor type ang mga tanong nila, you answer it also… yong tinatawag nilang, in a, most a, what is this? kindly behavior way, para hindi sila ngayon maghinanakit sa inyo at ang kanilang mga katanungan in a good manner.. if they are garapal, ah, medyo pakitaan din ng garapal kunti. Sabi pa ni Julius, “garapalitation”. Eh, garapalitation din natin daddy… hehehe.. no? Again my children were all with me, sabi niya, “Dad imposible daddy kung ang isang tao na halos… halos nag-iisip ng puros kagandahan dito sa mundo daddy na magiging papel ka rin, o magiging isa ka rin sa mga tinatawag nilang mga wrongly o wrongfully convicted persons. Ano ngayon daddy kaya ang mangyayari sa mundo? Eh, sabi ko naman e, “if there are wrong convictions, then there are also correct convictions”. Ibig sabihin anak, malalaman din nila kung sino ang may kagagawan ng krimen na yon. Malalaman din nila who is purposely doing it, because I think, that, that thing that happened to your step mother has a great purpose sa gumagawa noon.

Meron silang napakalaking purpose kung pananglitan kung bakit nila nagawa yon. And then pinahid nila dito, syempre ipapahid mo yan sa ibang tao para hindi sila… pero masisilip din yan lahat.. sooner or later the authorities will see who really the true culprit is to that crime. Sabi nga, grabe talaga no, the span of time sabi pa ni Julius, dyan sya magaling sa mga estimate ng time and distance. We are taking… sabi nya, grabe talaga daddy ang span ng mga pangyayari. Very close together span, para bang ang pangyayari daddy, halos nagbabangaan… halos tayong mga nandidito sa tabi, halos hindi tayo makakakakibo sa mga nangyayari… kung naalala natin mentioning about the last December attempt dun sa itaas… sobra daw ang lapit, sobra daw ang ano… wala pa daw isang taon halos nangyayari na din ang kinatatakutan nilang mangyari… Because it has been said, that another thing will happen to this, our lives after the December, yung attempt nila dun sa taas which we are able to defend ourselves… ngayon naman ganon-ganon pa ang desisyon, kasi the authorities are still thinking, sabi nila, kung I convict natin si Ecleo, we might be wrong, dahil yang tao nay an, alam ng mga tao nila, even as here in Cebu City, we knew him of a good man, now if we will convict him, and the conviction turns out to be wrongful, ano mangyayari sa atin. He has many connections, yan ang mga usap-usapan nila, kaya ngayon, itong pamilya din, e medyo nag-uusap usap din sila, “Oo nga ano, pag I wrongfully convicted natin yan, e hindi naman talaga natin alam kung sino ang gumawa noon”. Pero they themselves know it… They themselves know it, who really is the true culprit. Because, as according to me, as I have said, they are trying, that they have done it with a great purpose, tapos ipinahid nila ngayon sa atin, not knowing ha, not knowing, that they are trying, that they are one very simple locomotive who tries to stop a great train… pader ngayon ang binabangga nila, baka hindi nila alam yon. And that is where… (claps) Mabuti sana, kung iisa lang ka tao ang inano nila, ang condemn nila, e pag sabing ako, e lahat tayo is again, although it is part of our lives, talagang ganyan, pero ang mga nag cocondemn sa atin, hindi nila nalalaman ba, kung ano talaga ang ginawa nila. Kagaya na siguro ito ng sinasabi ni Jesus Christ na, “ My father in heaven, whatever they have done to me, please forgive them, because they don’t know what they are doing”. Now, what will be the consequences also? And if we will move also forcefully or wrongly, what will happen to us? Gayon na nga wala na nga tayong kasalanan, tapos sasakyan pa natin, babahiran pa natin ang ang ating dugo ng ating diugo ng hindi naman karapatdapat. What will be again the the consequence? So, iaano na naman nila, I cocondemn na naman nila ang ating association. Which is partly, but then I believe, I believe. Somewhere, somehow. These thing can all be gone with the help of a strong wind, kagaya ng clouds which actually covering the sun, ahhm, disabling the earth’s movement from ano, yung mga buhay na mga halaman, they were deprive of the nutrients from the sun in order to produce chlorophyl, yung green coloring matter, alam nyong lahat yan, chlorophyl… Which will be pushed away by a strong wind further south or further north, just giving back to us again the life that is needed in order for that life to go on. That’s how it is.

Perhaps, if it is also a dry season and you have noticed a lot of brown grasses on your ground. And our livestock will not be benefited from those, but perhaps, in another part, further from that you have own, in another part of the ground, there might be perhaps a growing strips of grass, which is green, which is young and which is very nutritious for our cattles and for our livestocks.. perhaps, even if it is small, perhaps, not very numerous in number, but then will be enough to give nutrients to what is now a hungry livestock… maybe, in another horizon, we could be again a fuel again for survival of our starving organization… But we starve not of food my friends, but we starved of an unprecedented society, unkind ones… and that they may be perhaps be kind to us sooner or later, and someday perhaps a good and a new day will come to us in order for us to be living again in a normal way… sabi pa, we will just have to provide ourselves with the proper education, arm ourselves with the proper ones, provide us with the knowledge, teach our children to be responsible and we the grown-ups, should have to add what is lacking in ourselves so that we may be able also to move like those people who are well to do. Instead of being envious, we could be something of an example that we could stand proudly that we could make something out of our own. And that, we have at least some resources here na magiging, o, that would make us look like that, or those things globally, kung baga.

Now, we’ll have to stretch… slow, basta perpetually, andyan lang naman yan, everything is provided by God, and it is up for us how to use what has been provided. Because, if it is not provided naturally, we can provide it artificially just like now the synthesis, that is being presented to you by yours truly, time after time… yung mga naririning nyong mga tunog ditto sa stage. Those are synthesis, synthesized sounds, akala nyo, may mga blowing, kala nyo ang dami daming drummer, kala nyo and dami dami na, but then those are the artificial recorded samples of those sounds, are being recorded and incorporated into one keyboard in order for us to be able to produce an orchestral effect and that is probably also the same thing. Because, we don’t have enough people to play the drums, and we don’t have enough resource or talents to do it. That is why, one of the factors that is now actually threatening the recording industry, especially those people who play individual instruments… wala silang talents ba, if they are trumpeters, they are trumpeters, if they are tambourines, they are only tambourines, now, you cannot see them anymore, except of course in a special setting no, unless of course if it is also necessary already like the parades… but then, like this one on the stage, sooner or later these great speakers will be replaced by those smaller ones… sooner or later also, computers will be replaced by mini and microcomputers which is actually now happening, no… siguro tayong mga tao rin will be replaced by robots someday, doing the industrial part of life… so back to basics na naman tao, kaya kailangan kayo matutong mananim, dahil yung mga computer engineers yung mga ganyan, you will be replaced by robots what will happen to you? Pag hindi kayo marunong magtanim, ang mga engineers, for instance ang engineer, you could easily be, ahh what is this? Program in the computer, lahat sa computer yan, what if, one day, a chip will be discovered, a microchip will be discovered, being framed in the central processing unit of a robot. And what if that is called the brain now, the brain of the computer, yang chip na yan will act as like a human being that could start programming itself, that could start itself. Patay tayong mga engineer. Kaya kailangan no, dito sa PBMA, because, what we are teaching here in PBMA is are all basic. Once that time will come, marunong pa rin tayong mabubuhay sa ating sarili. There is still enough soil to toil. There is still enough ano.. Kasi balik sa basic yan e. Even if you have to look at the ano, the whole horizon, for example you are a computer engineer, pero wala sila kahibalo ba yung laging nagreresearch, you will soon be replaced by what he is researching, for instance, they will be able to produce the chip that could be doing things without programming it, magkakaroon sila ng individual ano ba, ahh individual differences, pagkatapos nyan, mag po-program ngayon yang chip na yan without you operating it. Kasi ngayon, ang mga computer, without you doing something, the computer will not react. But someday, I know that thing will put on by itself, will reboot by itself and those things pagkatapos nyan, papaano ngayon itong ating mga kababayan, na marurunong na sana pero balik sa basic, dun na naman sila balik na naman sila sa pagtatanim. But I hope, I hope if that will come it would be 100 years from now, kasi kung ngayon mangyayari yan kawawa naman tayo. Kung sakali.

What I’m talking now, is like 10 years ahead, 20 years ahead, kasi sa ngayon ha. If you will look at, or if you are watch the channel of what I’m always watching, mangangamba ka sa sarili mo. All the people now in that channel is talking about looking for another planet to inhabit because the earth will soon loose its vitality… Yung mga ultra violet rays from the sun, all those global warming, all those alarming facts, that the species are disappearing from this earth, and they knew the numbers and how many millions of that specie is disappearing in that period… they are trying to count on those lost species, and they are trying to recover what has been lost by conservation… If you will be able to analyze those things, pagkatapos, and then do you know why the first era of life in this planet is gone, yung mga dinosaurs. The comet, yung malaking star na nasa taas, biglang nahulog dito sa lupa, that extinguishes, annihilated by the heat and the radiation produced by the effect alone. What will happen, if one day, we will never know guys, one day, that thing will just happen, so there’ll be annihilation of ano.. kaya ngayon they are talking about looking for another planet to inhibit, which is quite alarming. It’s quite alarming.. If those things… pero sabi ko naman, Ah! There is God! There is God! Sabi kong ganon… Pero I am also looking at what they are trying to say to us, in order for us to be prepared whether not they coming soon or it be happening later, at least a generation of people will be prepared, just like what we are tying to do now in the association, we are trying to recall and we are trying at least to inform the people, so that at least the coming generation may be aware of what to do when those famines happen.

So ladies and gentlemen, I don’t like to take most of your time, I’d like to say again, thank you very much and then I’d like to say I’m sorry for being late and then thank you very much for inviting me, to my son, thank you and good evening.
