Here are some
of the points that to me make up the Jedi Way.
Other Jedi may have different views and ideas. I
present only what is true of me. These are the
views I follow for myself as a Jedi.
Basic Cosmotheism
There is a basic unity that
binds us to the cosmos around us, a common thread
that links us to each other and to all of
creation. Our purpose in life is to perfect
ourselves as individuals and as a species, and to
evolve towards a higher perfection of being.
Martial Arts and Zen
These are used together to
develop physical shape as well as inner peace
through meditation and mental discipline. Martial
arts teach us not only how to fight when we must
defend ourselves or others,but if our lessons are
well learned, they also teach us how not to
fight.
Supernatural Powers
There is nothing supernatural
about mystical powers such as healing or
telekenesis or anything else. They are powers we
can all have to one degree or another through
patience and practice. All we must do is believe
in them and in ourselves.
Knighthood
The most basic code of
knighthood is this: Be honest,brave, and true. Do
good in the service of others. Protect the weak
and uphold justice.
