Pabasa ng Pasyon: Experience Spiritual Devotion Through Song and Kubols
Every Holy Week, from Palm Sunday to Good Friday, the town of General Luna in Quezon transforms into a living stage of devotion and culture. At the heart of the celebration is the Pabasa ng Pasyon — the continuous chanting of the Pasyón, an epic poem narrating the life, suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, written by Gaspar Aquino de Belén in the early 1700s. This ritual is not merely religious; it is a shared expression of faith and communal identity that stretches across generations.
