what the jedi are

 

Well, there seems to be a movement taking place. People have been and still are taking up the philosophy of the Jedi Knights and applying it to their own lives. I think this is a very good thing myself, and I am proud to be part of that movement. I don't know if George Lucas ever intended such a thing from the start, but the Jedi are now real.

 

The Jedi Code

There is no emotion,there is peace.
There is no ignorance,there is knowledge.
There is no passion,there is serenity.
There is no death,there is the Force.

 

The Jedi seeks knowledge and enlightenment as well as peace and harmony. The Jedi wishes to defeat those who would destroy such qualities.

Non-violence

Jedi should always seek non-violent solutions to problems. Sometimes violence is the only answer,sometimes even the best answer, but that does not mean one should not try to find an alternative first. Violence is a last resort only. It must never be the first reaction.

Responsible use of power

A Jedi must act from wisdom, using counsel and persuasion over violence or power. Using ones powers or combat skills when other means would be better or to do so just for the sake of doing so leads to the Dark Side.

Call to Action

A Jedi should not let evil occur by inaction. To stand back and do nothing is to encourage the forces of darkness.
