Hilot are cultural worker and steward of the Earth. We are ordained by the Law of Nature and Universal law as care taker of its creation.

Most people see that we work on relieving pain of the People, but our work is not limited on relieving human pain and sufferings but we are bringing back the harmony in their lives by balancing the forces of nature that governs it.

Hilot is a Common People Medicine. It is not formulated and designed by a single individual or group of people, but it was passed down to us by our ancestors from generation to generations. As a Common people medicine, Hilot Techniques and methodology are unique from each tribe. Though different and unique from each other, the law of nature applies that we are all connected as magkakaugnay.

Standardization of techniques might violate the universal law of uniqueness as it will implement the superiority of one tribal technique and the other to be inferior.

All Hilot are equally potent and unique. Each methods are allowable as it will produce cure to the illness of mankind. What makes Hilot similar to each technique is that it works out to obtain common goal of bringing cure and restoring wellness to mankind.

The motivation of Hilot as a Healer is to heal which is to Help Enhance Alleviate Life from pain and suffering.

For some, voting for local official is just a waste of time; but for me it is worth spending time and effort in doing so. My vote equates to the welfare of our Nation.

As Hilot, we value our hands in healing people illness; and with our hands during election time we are healing our land by voting.

It is not only our hand that works in writing the name of the local officials in the ballot paper but also our mind and our heart.

In giving massage, we have taught that our hands is the extension of our heart and our mind; so as during election it is our hand that writes and it becomes the voice of our heart and our mind to elect the right person to govern our community.

This is what my father have given to me so as my ancestors. People of all colors will benefit to my vote, not only the officials that i elected nor the constituent of our barangay but also to all foreigners who desire to experience living with us.

If you think that Barangay Election is not so important, then think again. Our barangay system has also the executive, legislative and judicial function. Through the welfare of our Barangay the City/ Municipal Government move, so as the provincial, regional and national government.

It is through the Barangay the national government was formed, and without a single Barangay there will be no municipality, city, province or even a nation.

We are cooking Lana last time with Miss Ryah, a Filipina by Birth but raised up in Viena, Austria. Every year she makes pilgrimage way back home to the Philippines to strengthen her comnection to her roots.

On this years journey, she enrolled to study Hilot Binabaylan with us and learn to make Lana Coconut Oil to be used for her healing works.

As we make the lana, we have recited the myth why there is coconut and also the sacredness of coconut.

As we put to boil the coconut milk into the pan, i started to recite the myth that there were 3 powerful Gods longtime ago in the Philippines. One is Bathalang Maykapal who rules the Earth; then Ulilang Kaluluwa (lonely soul) which is a serpent that lives in the cloud; and Galang Kaluluwa ( wondering soul) who fly over every plane of existence.

One day, Ulilang Kaluluwa who is the flyimg serpent saw the Earth which Bathalang Maykapal is the ruler. He challenge Bathala for a fight for rulership but unfortunately Ulilang Kaluluwa lose the fight and died. As good ruler of the Earth, Bathala gave an honorable burial to Ulilang Kaluluwa.

Then after a few years, the Friendly Galang Kaluluwa went on Earth to Visit Bathala and stayed with him. As Galang Kaluluwa stay with Bathala,he became weak and died. So Bathala again buried Galang Kaluluwa to the grave where he also buried Ulilang Kaluluwa.

After few days, Bathala notice that there is a tree that grew on the grave where he buried Galang Kaluluwa anh Ulilang Kaluluwa. The body of the Tree looks like the serpentine body of Ulilang Kaluluwa and the leaves of the tree looks like the wings of Galang Kaluluwa and when Bathala open the fruit of the tree, it looks like a head with two eyes and a mouth. And the tree that grows in the grave of Ulilang Kaluluwa ang Galang Kaluluwa is now we know as the Coconut Tree.
