Just a few questions
1) I am new to Jediism, and I believe it can work for me, but what does it mean to have a clear mind? Does this mean I don't think about things around me? Or is it that I keep a positive mind?
2)I do not believe in the though that "things happen for a reason." Does this have to change in order for me to be able to become a Jedi?
Those are some of my questions, thank you for reading and have a good day.

But I would suggest that you begin the initiates program and start a journey of discovery for you self.
May the Force be with you my friend.

Why did you post these questions if there was no reason for asking them?

It's an interesting question, least of all because I bet most that say you need a clear mind have never actually sat down and thought about what that term actually means
As for a response to question 2. I do not believe that things happen because of a reason or a grand will

This is a holiday weekend...
I've extended it by a day, so app processing, and the several other messages I've received, will all resume tomorrow....

Also a clear mind does not mean an empty minds, it means uncluttered, clean and orderly, purposeful....

At the most basic of levels, things dohaooen for a reason...
It is evolution, cause and effect...
Just because you did not set something in motion, doesn't mean there isn't a reason...

Any other questions? Please ask....

There is a difference between what people usually call "a reason" and simply making the observation that things happen as a consequence of other things. #1 is superstition, #2 is pretty much the nature of the force...I do not believe in the though that "things happen for a reason." Does this have to change in order for me to be able to become a Jedi?
