If we are to change the meanings of the words we are not going to understand each others in the world. :whistle:
And I think Sith are not all darth but more focus on passion but it's différent of Jedi. Or are they had.change of meaning?
I understand that we need guide to the pattern or a map to found the road to take for the goal we have. To get home..
And no worry for me I have a open mind. I am already on the road of light so I don't need ignorance.

In regards to power, I don't view its accumulation and abuse as inherit to its definition, I instead view power as just a measure of capacity to change in action.... there being appropriate levels or, minimum levels of, insufficient, too much etc. How one uses power might reflect more on any interpretation of Sith probably. Jedi should be about action as well so I dont think the concept of power is itself 'Sith'.

To the dictionary and definitions, you are correct no doubt. I was reading some teachings attributed to the Bon path and they talked about equipoising, dissolution and retaining as methods to 'cast off defilement's of the intellect' LOL, heavy language but I was thinking perhaps to approach clusters of 'truth' we must assess our own experience against how others express information. Perhaps to determine an inclusive average is 'equipoising', like a middle way. Dissolving the concepts might be for those who ignore them as irrelevant misintepretations, and perhaps retaining is for when ascertaining the definitions as particular truths. It was a train of thought I was having - I don't mean to 'dissolve' the Bon meanings by saying this
:silly:

Though the word does not need only one meaning, it's context can assert different natures of meaning - but I think its vital they are connected in 'spirit', otherwise I think its best to use a different word which might have a better contextual usage. If that does not agree with someone elses definition then there is nothing wrong with that. Translation, transliteration and interpretation would seem to be useful tools in communicating with different people with different meanings, different words, different cultures etc, perhaps especially as a Jedi!?

Ok it's had been hard to think on stuff I don't put my mind normally. :dry:
Selfishness and fear .. It's like someone it's so selfish that he fear someone take his place or whatever he possess.

Ok I will comeback to the topic to translate everything I don't understood. I always like your add Adder.
But I have a charge schedule this time. Need to make money unfortunately. :pinch:

I been however meditating on this and has long it's in the tenets and the light it's love.
Everything it's perfect. :lol:
True knowledge are compose of true wisdom anyway.
And in the end love each other are really not a jedi code but a law of life.
:silly:

Wow 0_0 that a lots of questions :laugh:
I don't Know why you ask me...
One answer for me : Fernando
"It's courage run fearless into a certain death? Or it's stupidity?"

its less about which direction we run and more about why we run that way

to run towards death is foolish and uneccessary - it will come to us eventually no matter what we do

when we are the biggest number in the equation then to live is only real victory

what does fernando do when the world commands him to throw himself into the abyss for a cause that has no meaning to his own life and his own tribe?

but when we have a moment where we are a part of something which is vastly more imortant than any of us singly or even many of us collectively - what is foolishness then and what is courage?

what does fernando dedicate himself to?

what destiny do you prepare yourself to face?

these questions dont necessarily have to be answered now, and certainly its not necessary to answer them to anyone but yourself

but there will come a day when fernando will have to choose what he believes in and what sort of influence he hopes his life will have on others

courage and fear play a very large role in this
