This list is hardly complete, but it is the start of a list of teachings
about the Force, and of the ways of the Jedi knights, as passed down by
Jedi Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda. Take them to heart, mind what you
learn here. Notice everything, everything! It can save you.

"The Force surrounds each and every one of us. Some men believe it directs
our actions, and not the other way around. Knowledge of the Force and how
to manipulate it was what gave the Jedi his special power."
-
The Force is in the mind, and can sometimes be used to influence others.
It's a powerful ally. But as you come to know the Force, you will discover
that is can also be a danger.
-
For over a thousand generations, the Jedi knights were the most powerful,
most respected force in the galaxy. They served as the guardians and guarantors
of peace and justice in the Old Republic.
-
The Force can have a powerful effect on the weak-minded.
-
The Force is omnipresent. It envelops you as it radiates from you. A Jedi
warrior can actually feel the Force as a physical thing.
-
You will find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our
point of view.

-
To become a Jedi takes the deepest commitment, the most serious mind.
-
Adventure, excitement. A Jedi craves not these things.
-
Try not. Do, do. Or do not. There is no try.
-
Let the Force be your ally. And a powerful ally it is. Life creates it
and makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings
we are, not this crude matter. Feel it you must. Feel the flow. Feel the
Force around you. Here, between you and me and that tree and that rock.
Yes everywhere, waiting to be felt and used.
-
Were the Force flowing through you, higher you'd jump! Faster you'd move!
Open yourself to the Force you must.
-
Anger, fear, aggression! The Dark side of the Force are they. Easily they
flow...quick to join in a fight. Beware, beware, beware of them. A heavy
price is paid for the power they bring.
-
A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge. Never for attack.
-
Be calm. Through the Force things you will see: other places, other thoughts,
the future, the past, old friends long gone.
-
Twilight will one day be upon us all, and soon night must fall. That is
the way of things....the way of the Force.
-
Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.
-
Fear is the path of the Dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate.
Hate leads to suffering.

-
Don't center on your anxieties, keep your concentration here and now, where it belongs
- Be mindful of the future, but not at the expense of the moment. Be mindful of the
living force.
The Force will be with you, always.
