What do the Jedi actually want? What is the ultimate goal of their order? Every religion has an endgame.Is it the erasure of the Dark Side of the Force? What good will that do?
Shit engagement bait thread, and OP is a faggot.For all who think this is a real question, the answer is "jedi act like a special police force serving the reigning government, who stop small conflicts from escalating". There.
>>151946353Jedi - Understand the nature and their place/role in the universal energy field and guidence known as the The Force.Sith - Understand the nature and then master the the universal energy field and guidence known as the The Force.
>>151946571it's mostly this yeah>>151946353they also want balance although they're not really clear on what that might mean for the Forcein terms of the galaxy they basically just want peace and fairness
>>151946353Dark Side evil. Evil bad. Jedi good. Destroy evil.
>>151946353Idk George juat made them complete fucking retards in the prequels, particularly during the Clone Wars. How the Jedi thought it was moral leading literal slaves into battle I'll never know.
>>151946353They focus on holding together the Republic, as a way to avoid using their access to the force for selfish reasons, because selfish force use is the path to the dark side.
>>151946353>Every religion has an endgame. I don't think it's really that common in a lot of things is just Christianity and Islam off the top of my head who thinks everyday everyone's going to be all religion and things will be perfect Judaism doesn't have everyone being a Jew or obeyed Jews and I'm pretty sure a lot of religions don't think everyone's going to one day be one of us or the Messiah is going to make everything great and then they'll become all us.
>>151947212>they also want balance although they're not really clear on what that might mean for the ForceFPJ explains it. https://youtu.be/yCqH0r0xPLQ?si=cDTaddB6bqXA6QIj&t=73
>>151946353They want peace for the galaxy and for people to reach enlightenment to not use the force slefhslihy, the dark side/darksiders (in both continuites) is the reason behind most conflicts (Directly or indirectly). They're buddist monks mixed with knights.>>151947177This
>teach all force sensitives capable of actually utilizing the force the "correct" way of using the force>protect and oversee a peaceful and harmonious galaxy>eradicate the sith and the dark side of the force from the galaxyon the metaphysical side I don't think there's any real endgame in their approach to the force so much as a sense of continued exploration and deeper understanding of its mechanics
>>151946353They seem more like a vanguard to be ever vigilant in case evil force users ever come around again.Especially since later Star Wars stuff post Clone Wars has made a force user a totally unkillable monster that cannot be stopped except by another force user. But also they kind of fail in a lot of parts since most the evil force users out there started out as Jedi that went bad at some point.
>>151946353Lucas never put that much thought into them. He just wanted to have his own special version of the Bene Gesserit and Sardaukar in highly specialized, near psychic order of monk swordsmen that worked for the galaxy government. Almost everything we know about them was made up after Episode 1, a decade and a half after he made the original trilogy. >>151947674Not a whole lot about them in the prequels seem to make a whole lot of sense or match up with what people thought they were.>They are official state police>Based in a big highrise in the middle of urban city planet and not some temple on a nature planet>They took over as generals and military leaders>had no moral problems with clone soldier armies>had no moral problems with slavery in the outer rim either
>>151946353The opening crawl outright states they are>The defenders of peace and justice in the galaxy
>>151949020Not only that the Jedi are really stupid to even utilize the clone soldiers as they are well aware of the fact they were created under shady means with connections to the seperatist movement.
>>151949042Yeah and Christians are also defenders of peace and justice but that doesn't mean they have any governmental authority
>>151947841The point of Hinduism and Buddhism is to reach enlightenment/nirvana
>>151949121They did in the Crusades. The Jedi are supposed to be a military knight order, like the Knights Templar or the Teutonic Knights
