A Jedi Holocron

A Jedi Holocron

a little Jedi wisdom.

If you come forward to the Jedi Order and say you have something to teach, a Jedi Master may say: my Jedi sense is sense enough. If I sense it, I learn. The same way that If I touch a cup, I learn what the cup is, what it does, what it can do. I can use another sense my sight and not touch it and still know what it is, what it does and what its used for. I can learn the moral that you hold is something I can sense—but not in the same way that I touch a cup, or even see it.

Because to a Jedi, the moral is what blossoms capability.

And that capability is telepathy.

We use telepathy to sense that moral betterment—for me, for you, for everyone else. Not benefit. Betterment. The betterment of life. And it is also how we sense a Sith: power, fear, corruption, suffocation, immoral influence used to keep someone from discovering their own moral—the unique gift they are meant to bring forward for everyone.

For some, I may say it is a lesson. For others, a teaching. But as you can see, we have capabilities that are difficult to notice, because the Jedi goes further with this. At first it is a lesson. Then a teaching. Then a realization. Then a manifestation. Then a physical representation. And it goes further than that.

You may find a lesson enough, and it is enough. But further still, it becomes manifestation—a capability in sync with, in resonance with, the moral itself. A deeper realization becomes real. Then deeper still, or further, it becomes more concrete, more significant. Especially if it manifests during a time of unrest, corruption, or confusion.

But that does not mean corruption creates it.

It means the Jedi must relinquish the personal quest of moral establishment and return for the people—for the rest of us—so that we may remember and realign with our connection to the Force.

That is why we celebrate the Jedi when they arrive.

You see, the Sith—control and influence—takes away Jedi sense. You are meant to learn, to sense your own unique moral: betterment for yourself, betterment for everyone. This adds to the Living Force. But control, to suffocate, means I stop your sense and your direction, and move you in a direction of my choosing.

You still need to breathe to grow. But I manipulate the direction, and then the Sith Lord has won.

Now you are left wondering: is this what I should breathe, or that? Is this what I should understand, or that? And soon you seek power, control, and influence over others.

This is why the Sith is narrow-minded.

The Jedi mind is broader than that. Knowing that the sky is above us, and breath is always given, and proper.

But being proper, guidance leads you individually to the moral. Your own unique moral. You could say you seek it. I would say it discovers you, as a vessel to bring itself forward to the betterment of life—to your life, and the lives of others.

A moral does that.

Suffocation does not.

I would demonstrate this. I would say: this is the moral I discovered, or that discovered me.

I am in a desert. I touch the ground, and water begins to issue forth.

You would say that is impossible.

But it is not.

It is a connection with the Moral. The Moral can be brought to physical representation.

My sense is different than yours. But to you—do you see the moral of this? The betterment of you, me, and everyone else? It is simple. It supports life. It supports growth. And from that, it invokes in you a sense of imagination—that everything is possible. For in reality, everything is possible. But because of power, influence, and suffocation, it takes a great deal of time to overcome that.

So we struggle to make sure these morals, which each of us can bring forward, do not get lost within, and do not fall into the hands of power, influence, and suffocation.

While your mind may still say that water issuing in a desert from touching the ground is impossible, the Jedi sees the moral of it and knows that is a clue to its possibility, perhaps. To a Jedi learner, a lesson. To a Jedi Knight, something to quest. To a Master, something to demonstrate. To a Grand Master, something to teach or bring forward.

A true moral, upon its demonstration, is for the betterment of you, me, and everyone else. It supports reality by showing that every possibility is possible. It is difficult to discover a true one, yes. But once again—each of us has one.

You think you will understand that?

There is no understanding,

You see, that statement itself often comes from control, fear, and suffocation. I can look into you and see through you to that—but I am not going to. And to me, please do not replace this with fear. You are capable of it too.

I can stand aside from you and see your fears, how they became, how you overcame them, what became of that—memories, thoughts, even your explanations—until, what is pleasant to arrive at first, your moral. What you learned from your life, the lives of others, and your experiences.

There is a great deception at play in the world, and with this sense you can see that too.

The reason I say fear, power, influence, and suffocation are not proper is because they keep you from this—from discovering your own uniqueness, your lesson, your teaching, your realization, your manifestation, and then its physical property.

The sky is the sky for all of us.

You grow. That is all. You will grow. But only the suffocated wonder where the sky is, because of the direction they have taken—sometimes because of another. And you need only know that the sky is still there. It never goes anywhere.

“Why do you think I will understand that?”

Do not worry, Padawan, about what must I understand and what must I not understand. It has nothing to do with that.

Grow a strong trunk. Grow a strong vine, interwoven with time and experience, friends and family. You may see yourself from the bottom trying to reach upward, thinking that if you only had more light you would be bigger. But what you notice as a Jedi is that you seek liberty because you grow naturally. You know that you do. And what you need is to live in liberty—which is simple clarity, like the air, like the water, like each other.

Walk with me for a moment.

Notice the trees of this forest, like you, like I, like another. But notice what is happening instead of stopping at the word tree. What if I said tree is the obstacle to noticing that this being lives in liberty?

It is so steadfast in its existence, in liberty, that if I shouted at it, or whispered do this, do that, this is what they are saying about you, the tree just stands there. It is free of you, of people, of life and death, of all of it. It seeks only to grow upward. In liberty, its root is strong, its trunk is strong. It does not need a ruler beside it to tell it to be a tree.

And frankly, look at the forest—they seem to be getting along.

For in liberty, the size and strength of one is measured with the others, and together they become more likened unto the same, and now there is a forest. And a forest too provides protection.

The Jedi kneels in the moss, and a squirrel comes to him.

There. Do you see it?

That too is liberty.

Not command. Not fear. Not influence. Not suffocation.

He does not seize it. He does not call it by force. He does not bend it to his will. He kneels, and because he is there properly, because he is with life and not above it, the small living thing comes forward of its own accord.

Sometimes you forget how important it is to get along with others.

Sometimes you forget that strength provides protection even to those you do not notice, and that gentleness is also a sign of strength. The squirrel comes because the forest is not at war with him in that moment. He is in accord with it.

That is liberty too.

The ruler beside you is artificial. On the ruler is point after point, even like the points we make with one another. But these points, and the ruler itself, are artificial. The points will always be the same. The points do not grow. The ruler does not grow.

People grow. Life grows.

There will always be the same points. Even the teachings do not grow.

You grow. We grow. I grow.

That is why we are true.

And a true destination—you should reflect on that—has no suffocation in it. It is in liberty, not control; not fear; not even desire, really, because desire too can become control, moving suddenly away in a different direction. To start small and suffocated, and now because the direction is not true, you will say things like: I need to understand this. I do not need to understand that. I choose this. I choose that. This is better for me than you—

No.

You can get lost once you have been taken by the dark side, and that is what that means.

Eventually comes fear. Anger comes from a frustration that is not there in liberty. It is as though you are cut off from the sun, but still grow. It is difficult to get back to your true direction.

But it can be done.

Now you understand

Now look…

A red saber ignites.

Now unto Order 66.

The clones are… what you know, what you have been taught, your teachers, even the language you speak. They have been with you this entire time. You could say they have been with you fighting the robot army. Notice now how they turn against you. You have fought for them—what you know, what you have been told, what you have learned from others. Now you realize they are not loyal.

There is a Sith in font of you turning against you, right now, from going on this journey.

He will say: understand death, Understand God, Understand Buddha, Understand higher planes, Understand dimensions, Understand the world, Understand science. Understand, understand, understand—

Because there is a Sith Lord who says you are not allowed to use telepathy.

I will say: why do you not understand?

And you will say: I do understand what you are talking about.

But you do not, in that understanding. Are you able to see that?

That is suffocation. That is control. That is fear. That is the desire to fight for what you know. But I assure you—that is a clone, just dancing along with you.

The saber goes away.

The Jedi are here as guidance. I only want to see you grow. That makes me happy—to see another living world where there is growth. Do not worry about it so much. Just grow.

Proper growth.

Which means: mind yourself.

You may use an artificial construct in your life—a ruler, a schedule of events—to guide you. This will bring progress and prosperity. A Jedi knows this. And when they arrive, they take you away from that too.

And that too, I think, is the moral.

Every individual has their own unique gift such as someone recieved a wound you place your hands a the wound heals.

Or another

I take a stick I touch a tree and a branch jumps out with leaves on it, perfectly joined as a part of the tree.

Or

I touch water and fire starts coming from it.

These aren’t the misconceptions of the future like marvel hero’s who have powers but what I putting forward is Morals. Everyone has one but we are suffocated in every single way so we cant imagine, look at everyone, and see everyone has a unique one. Impossible! Never, Never, Never.
