I like the idea of this exercise. It must be pretty cool to see the varied condensations of peoples view on Knighthood.

But I find that I cant really think of a single word, because for me, one word means essentially cutting out the holistic sense of the Knight. For example, someone said adaptability. Which is a great trait for a Knight, but in opposition perhaps steadfastness or immovability? As a knight I would want to be adaptable to the word around me, but immovable in circumstances that required total commitment and no compromise.

Or the idea of service and kindness. Sometimes kindness and service is obvious and "looks" like kindness, but what if the kindest thing, the thing that would be of most service is allowing someone to suffer through their circumstances in order to become stronger and more resilient on the other side.

Asking for a single word is a great way to show where a persons current focus is, but perhaps not to explore the concept of Knighthood.

But thats just my 2 cents :)

Im curious Kitsu, whats your one word? (or did I miss it in the topic?)



Walking, stumbling on these shadowfeet

Part of the seduction of most religions is the idea that if you just say the right things and believe really hard, your salvation will be at hand.

With Jediism. No one is coming to save you. You have to get off your ass and do it yourself - Me

haha My one word was "Jedi" :laugh: "Harmony" would be the other word for those that find "Jedi" as cheating XD

I totally agree that it takes more than one word to describe what make a Jedi Knight ^_^ But it is still a fun exercise. Between Jedi Church and TOTJO I was able to put everyone one word into a Conduct/code of sorts. I like little exercises like this. Helps flex the mind muscles from time to time ^_^

:silly:

I realize you weren't actually asking for an explanation, but here I'll give it anyway. Buckle up.

Knighthood to me is the fruition of study, contemplation, and meditation. It's a fusion of the mind, heart, and body being transformed by the worldview you've created on your Jedi path. That said, the learning doesn't stop when you become a knight. From what I can see and my conversations with you, Alex, it would appear that the learning only continues and stretches your mind. "Yes?" symbolizes for me the eternal journey of learning new things about every subject, especially those which others would assume you know a great deal about. It's an answer to the question, "Do you know anything about [ insert topic ]?"

Also wanted to respond to this but im running about all over XD lol

I completely agree :) I have no objections to starting another thread exploring deeper than one word. I was in a word game mood, hence this thread :) Always happy to discuss on a more serious level if others are interested. A new thread can be made ^_^
