Shadow
Jedi: Lecture #21
The
Shadow Jedi

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 Shadow Jedi.
Shadow Jedi, are force users who strive to unlearn all concepts
of good and evil. They learn to see things in more natural terms.
There is no good or evil...only oneness. Shadow Jedi as such strive
to live in the balance of the moment. Each moment has its own energy
balance and when an energy balance becomes to extreme to the point
where it is unhealthy for life, it is the job of the Shadow jedi
to step in and restore balance.
Shadow Jedi Progression:
Level One; Actualizing the Force.
This is the stage in which Shadow Adepts realize the existance and
prescence of a force around them at all times and in all places.
This is a stage of awakening and can take much time.
Level Two; Finding Inner balance through Realization.
During this stage of development Shadow Adepts must learn to see
the world through a different lens. They must learn to no longer
see the world as chaos and random events. They must learn to see
the intricasies and connections of all things around them. Than
they must understand that all things are in balance, where one thing
is stronger another is weaker...and as such it will shift back and
forth until equilibrium is reestablished. We see this in the world
around us, we note how all things in nature bend to this rule as
it is a supreme concept. Through this realization we begin to understand
that as such our personality has such balances...where one aspect
is stronger its opposite is weaker. We must also understand that
this give and take relationship is not beneficial and that it is
only beneficial when in equilibrium...when all aspects are equal
and none is favored...at this stage progression is only natural.
Training at this stage includes self hyptnotism and restructuring
of the personality. First we recognize the parts of the personality
that are favored...than we must restructure our personality so that
it too is in equilibrium. Once we have accieved inner balance we
have made our first great step into the world of the Force.
Level Three; Freedom of Balance.
After the attainment of inner balance we form a connection with
the balance of energies around us. With our own personalities balanced
we now have the freedom to undertake any action the force dictates
without it corrupting or affecting our personality make-up.
At this stage we become operational Jedi...We now use our abilities
to balance those around us, as well as nature and the enviroment
as well. However this is a task that is only undertaken every once
in a great while (When all things can no longer balance themselves
for the benefit of life). This opportunity only arises once in every
few generations. As of these most recent years we will be moving
into this era of turmoil.
The job of a Shadow Jedi is never clear...sometimes it can be the
most insignificant of tasks. While at other times it can be the
most daunting. Only your closesness with the force can dictate this
to you. To be a Shadow Jedi is to be one with the force, the process
of becoming a Shadow Jedi is a process of unlearning all that seperates
us from the force...
