Greetings to my fellow Jedi,
I have been spending the last couple weeks in a meditation/contemplation period regarding the nature of reality,evil,good,etc....Is what we perceive the truth of reality or is there something behind our perceptions that remains unseen.I started with the concept of good and evil using examples uch as is it evil to tell a lie or to steal something from another person. At the surface level I would say yes but delving deeper I came across thoughts such as those of a father who steals to feed his family because he has no other means to do so. While my belief is this is not evil it is unethical and surely there was another option. After contemplating this for awhile I revised my belief that evil was bad to my current viewpoint that evil is an action and intent used to control or manipulate another person or situation to satisfy one's own desire. I then broadened my contemplation to what we as Jedi have deemed the Force and the nature of reality..While I truly believe that all is a manifestation of the Force,who is to say that how we perceive reality contains the "Truth" in it's entirity. However, I believe that each manifestation can teach a much needed lesson to all of those who open their eyes,mind,and heart to the Force. While I am unsure where my meditations and contemplations will lead,I hope it is to a greater understanding of the Connection between us,all things,and the Force. I welcome any inight or comment others wish to share as I am eager to learn and grow and hopefully I can be of ervice through my words to other upon the Path.
