Where is a good place to read some myth texts, also anyone have any good links to any meditation techniques to help empty you mind and feel one with the force? I'm trying to connect to it.

Also, check out the Library here, there is a good amount of works, https://www.templeofthejediorder.org/library

If there are broken links please let someone know and we can try and get them fixed.

Much Love,

One of the places I began to search was Myths to Live by - by Joseph Campbell
From there I saw what he was doing and did what he did. It’s not a long read either. Hope it can help ya like it did me.

So is the myth of Star Wars not enough to try and comprehend as it relates to the Jedi path? Lol I'm just curious, it seems like a lifetime of pursuit alone.

If ya wanna dig deeper and get lost , he has a series of 4 books called Masks of God- the four books are those very myths of different regions places and times. Totally worth a buy for any Jeddist wanting to learn... a bit more.

I would say no, particularly as a practitioner of Jedi realism or a Jeddist in full explaining some ideas about the Force and how it works in the objective reality. This gives us the tools to attempt to either explain it or act within it as it has many facets within real life.

I am unfortunately not a space wizard (though that would be sweet), but I am a person who believes in the Force underlying everything, I do believe that acting in a set guidelines (such as the tenets, maxims and doctrine) is a worthy pursuit. Actually I agree it is a lifetime of pursuit, but it is a balance of learn and act. In the end it mirrors life.

Much Love, Respect and Peace,
Kobos

Truthfully what is the myth of Star Wars? The entire opera from beginning till end... there are so many story lines - it would take you for ever to own em all down. The story’s all make the make points this story has that they one has this one - what is the Star Wars myth?
Anyone ?

https://www.sefaria.org/ is an incredible resource in the Jewish tradition. It contains many texts from many periods in multiple languages. Anything associated with kabbalah, rabbinic Judaism, any sect of Judaism, it's all there.

With regards to Meditations: a former Senior Knight here, tzb, created a guided meditation based around the Jedi Code which I think is AMAZING. Its quite long, so if you're new to meditation you may want to split it into sections.

It is listed in the Library, however the link seems to go to the wrong video. The actual meditation can be found here
