Also, what is your favourite word? ;P

Favourite Colour: Pastel Pink or a Deep Red. I find them both simply captivating.
Favourite Word?... Probably have to go with the word Hi. it might seem like a boring choice. But to me the fact that that simple word can start entire chapters of your life, is something phenomenal and very powerful.

I'd call it the Kernel Claimant, and they would, as the name perfectly captures the power to claim any nuts that the squirrel finds from that day forth :laugh:

Our fight is for freedom, for liberty, and for all the principles upon which that aforementioned nation was built.” - Patrick “Madman of Galway” O'Dell

The first thing that attracted me to it was the relevance the Sith code had to how I wanted to live, how it was so easily applied to what I want and what I need. However quite a lot of others who label themselves as "Sith" seem to have a really different idea on the Sith code and interpret it in another way than I do, so what attracted me to it from that point on was reforming the Sith way(in a way), and building up my own Doctrine and ideals for my Sith. And that's what I've been doing for 3-4 years, I've also gained some followers but not many. It's difficult and even more of a challenge to keep it together.
Wow I rattled on way too much there. If you want a simpler explanation that won't take centuries.. I was attracted to the Sith path(more specifically my adaptation of it) as it focuses on complete self improvement and achieving your own personal goals and values, in which mine are to treat others fairly and to focus on making the lives of others around me as pleasant and productive to their selves as possible. As well as I love the idea of teaching and spreading the ideas of tolerance and equity :laugh:
(I'd also like to point out that despite there being distinct similarities between my adaptation of Sith teachings at their core, and the Jedi teachings here at Totjo, I'd like for people to realize that there is a lot more to what I speak of and I'd prefer it if people wouldn't discard the Sith path as "An Edgy version of the Jedi path" or something even vaguely similar, as I have heard a lot of that kind of thing before cx )

p.s. I absolutely do not see the Sith as an edgy version of the Jedi Path. Each person must walk their own path and if the Sith code gave you strength then power to you!

Thank you for that last part, it's good to know people understand.
And to answer your question what brought me to the temple was the opportunity to learn about a community/doctrine that is clearly very well developed and even thought there are parts about Being Jedi and their values that I disagree with, I do not see that as a reason not to expand my knowledge on the subject. Another reason is the fact that everybody at the temple is kind, and seem to treat everybody fairly, no matter who they appear to be.

I think you misunderstand what it is that I do. I do use Passion and Compassion together, it's a key part of what I teach. And I'm never constricted to the definition I set, if by that you mean what I believe/teach and live by, as it's constantly changing and evolving the more I learn and experience things.
--EDIT--
I just want to clarify that I'm not annoyed by your question in any way, I enjoy the opportunity to spread understanding about any and all topics
