I apologize if I am driving you all crazy with these questions, but it is something that has been bugging me for some time.

Yep, that's pretty much it. There are some lessons that are used with more than one student, but I have not seen two people who have gotten the same lessons all through their training. It's designed specifically to what you need to learn and experience.

Yeah I get that about the apprenticeship Naya. That question was referring to EVERYTHING, not just the apprenticeship alone.

Everything as in... I'm not sure I understand what you're referring to.

EVERYTHING?

Once you get your degree or become a Knight you can either become a Force Generalist or a Force Specialist. A Generalist learns less and less about more and more until they eventually know nothing about everything. A Specialist learns more and more about less and less until they eventually know everything about nothing.

ok ok lol i guess i deserved that.
Bad Choice of a word.
By the word everything I meant .... everything past the apprenticeship... like the div degrees. are they all custom made to each student or is their a specific format?

They are all individually designed for every student; there is no specific format.

Thank you Br. John for putting up with all my questions.
You have helped me more than you know.
I hope I did not drive you crazy with my questions though.
I am now done with this thread and the questions.

May the force be with you.

Lol, that's okay Opie, I doubt anyone here will take me either.

Jestor I've considered carefully how I want to word this

If you could prove that I do not live up to the standards outlined in the ToTJO Doctrine, then you a absolutely can tell me that I am not worthy of the title Jedi. Many agree with what is outlined in ToTJO's doctrine. The reason some of those old guard members did not agree that ToTJO was Jedi before they met three of your members in 2012 was because they felt many of you did not live by that doctrine. So yes, you could say someone is not q Jedi-as long as you weighed it against the doctrine here.

OMJ hahaha :laugh:

I've followed this thread since the beginning and I want to say thank you for all the questions which have been put forward and answered here. As a new member, I feel I have learnt a great deal about the TOTJO and what it embodies (in a positive way!) and many of my misunderstandings have been clarified . May the Force be with You all

I hope you realize I was yanking your chain Alethea....

I think maybe my humor didn't come through?

As I've stated, many times... Many many times (said like Leslie Neilson)

Many, many times, I would never tell someone they are not a Jedi...

so, you "old guard" folks judged us as not Jedi, figured we were not living according to the doctrine, without knowing us?

Yet according to your reply, I'd have to prove that you didn't?

Lol, nice.... There's some double standards for ya.... lol..

Water under the bridge, just pointing things out...

And, yet, still...

I'm not worried about your opinion, lol...

Don't get me wrong, whenever I say that, I consider what you say... Like I do all information...

But, if I find it, "lacking" or "not in line with my thoughts", I don't lose sleep over making "the old guard" happy...

"Old Guard"... I don't throw my age out to "show off", but I'm older than much of your "old guard", and probably living this life a bit longer...

But, that doesn't make me any better at this than you...

I know this...

As to you and Opie, Andy, whoever else, you may be one of those short apprenticeships...

Lets say I took one of you... lol, I know, crazy right?

And you already know everything I have to offer, maybe you have stuff I want (need) to learn... As Naya said, I'm sure you have plenty to offer....

My apprenticeship was short...

Then, the minimum time of 6 months may be all that's needed met...

On the other hand perhaps you and I need to visit this "no light/dark, only existence" theory of mine...

And that might take a lifetime...lol...
