Contradiction of Light Jedi

Print

on Posted in Shadow Content. Hits: 1015

This 'lecture' was sent to me by a Light Jedi, and although it has no direct relevance to the Shadow side I thought it would be interesting to analyze it from a Shadow perspective.

In essence a Dark Jedi uses the force to create for themselves a god like presence. "If you do as god does enough times, you become as god is." Dark Jedi destroy what gives them their power, however there is a contradiction in the passage which was sent to me. How are theJedi to prevent this "mutilation of life and of the force" without destroying Dark Jedi. And if they do this do they not become as Dark Jedi are? Destroyers of life .... The Light side shows stark contradictions within itself, whereas at least the Dark side is true to itself and its purposes. Even if that purpose is self destructive.

Take what you will from the following passage:

"The Force (to a Jedi) is a unifying essence that radiates from all living things, binding the galaxy together. As with everything the Force has a dark side. The dark side of the Force is fed by hate, fear and aggression, domination and greed are what its followers hope for. To get it though they kill innocent beings, they destroy life. They want power but destroy the source of their power before they achieve it. AsJedi we must stop this senseless mutilation of life and of the Force. Remember this always for this is the greatest lesson aJedi must learn to become fully one with the Force."

  • The Communication and Incorporation of Ideas

    By Colin Waring
    Another issue commonly brought up is that of good and evil, right and wrong. To generalize, everyone does what they believe is right regardless of their side. Light-siders believe their way is that of good and the right path, but Dark-siders also believe that their way is good and the…

  • Unlearning

    By Raven
    Unlearning “You must unlearn what you have learned” Everyday at the FA something is said about unlearning, but what is it? There are many misconceptions when it comes to the idea of unlearning, but let’s break it down to its simplest idea. Open-mindedness! If you can remember this when you…

  • Staring at a Shadow

    By Pelar
    I sit and stare and wonder - How do you stare at a Shadow? Do you stare at the ground on which it's projected? Do you stare at the object which casts it? Do you stare at the light-source above? At the space between? What would it be without but one…

  • Mirrors

    By Pelar
    Can any person perceive anything beyond personal perspective? I think not. We touch upon the absolute with our subjectively-gloved palms, processing it into our own reality through nerve-channels and neuron arrays. This is the paradox of subjective co-existence. On the one hand, we and all things are interconnected... tied to…

  • Splatter Vision

    By Pelar
    One of the most basic and most effective skills I've learned is to use "splatter vision" or more scientifically - peripheral vision. In my case, I picked it up from learning tracking, stalking and hunting techniques - as it enables one to detect slight movements in any type of terrain, sometimes even…

  • What Game Are We Playing?

    By Pelar
    Games are fun. Aren't they? An "activity engaged in for diversion or amusement", says the first definition in the Merriam-Webster dictionary. But if that were truly so, then games would have only been a marginal activity. Instead, games are widespread, enjoy immense social and cultural significance and can be considered…

  • The Shadows

    By Justin Tallant (Shinobi)
    First when looking to understand the shadow side you must look at the dark and light sides. The dark and light sides are constantly at war with each other over supremacy, there is a reason for this and I will get to it in a moment. The Shadow side has…

  • The Shadow Side?

    By Force Master Andy
    The Shadow side is steeped in mystery, some believe it does not exist and still others believe that the shadow side is where those with no commitment and no spirit dwell. As a new Force Adept begins their great and wide reaching journey towards self discovery and spiritual and physical…

    By Justin Tallant (Shinobi)
    Many people know what the Shadow side is. They know that the Shadow side itself is not limited to either of the two aspects of the force, but rather extends from extreme to extreme. This fact that all aspects of the Force does NOT mean that all force users are…
