You may remember our post right here from back in January about the Jedi Church being planned in the UK by brothers Barney and Daniel Jones. Well, apparently not everyone is happy about it. In this case, a drunken Darth Vader weilding a metal crutch. Barney Jones was in his back garden giving a documentary interview when a man dressed as the Sith Lord hopped over a fence and began assaulting Jones with the metal crutch. He then proceeded to take out his frustration on the camera crew and a hairdresser. Naturally, we are shocked to hear that alcohol was involved. All kidding aside we hope Barney and the others are ok, but dude! What a story!

The Jedi Creed:
Jedi are the guardians of peace in the Galaxy.
Jedi use their powers to defend and protect, never to attack others.
Jedi respect all life, in any form.
Jedi serve others rather than rule over them, for the good of the Galaxy.
Jedi seek to improve themselves through knowledge and training.
The Jedi Code:
There is no emotion; there is peace.
There is no ignorance; there is knowledge.
There is no passion; there is serenity.
There is no death; there is the Force.

Mysticism teaches that the dark side came from the
Light side, and that the Light side is much stronger.
But that the dark side was necessary in order for this
creation to exist as it is. Those that belong to the
Light side will always over come the darkness, no
matter what.

Yoda also teaches Luke that the dark side of the
Force is not stronger than the Light or Good side. But
that the dark side it is easier, quicker and more
seductive. For example, it’s easier to get angry if
someone insults you than to stay calm and be at peace
with yourself.

But how can we tell the difference between the Light
side and the dark side? Yoda explained that you will
know that you are on the 'good side' because you will
be at peace with yourself, calm and passive.

The opposite is true with the dark side: you won’t be
at peace with yourself. You will be mentally agitated.
Your thoughts will be dark and you will tend to be
aggressive. Jedi belong to the Light/Good side with
all their hearts and souls

..Are you serious?
I can't believe this is actually real.
Jedi were created by a movie director not even forty years ago.
How can people put serious faith behind this?

flowerforyou The basic concepts and ideals of the Jedi religion were introduced by the fictional Star Wars movies.flowerforyou However, these concepts were quickly and readily recognized by many people throughout the world as being a religion that they could more readily ascribe to than traditional religions.flowerforyou
flowerforyou The Jedi church makes no denial that its name and terminology originates from a fictitious past, but the concepts and ideals that are identified by Jedi followers are known for their innate truth.flowerforyou The sun existed before it was given a name, and it could be revered as a God, however, when the sun finally had a human name, it could be written about and communicated with others. flowerforyou The Jedi religion is just like the Sun, it existed before a popular movie gave it a name, and now that it has a name, people all over the world can share their experiences of the Jedi religion, here in the Jedi Church. flowerforyou

The Orthodox Jedi Code
There is no Emotion; There is Peace.
There is no Ignorance; There is Knowledge.
There is no Passion; There is Serenity.
There is no Death; There is the Force.

Additional lines to the Jedi Code:
There is no Chaos: There is Harmony.
There is no Fear; There is Courage.
There is no Foolishness; There is Wisdom.

Alternate version, written as a rebuttal to the Sith Code:
Passion is a crutch, peace is the truth.
Through peace I gain serenity.
Through serenity I gain knowledge.
Through knowledge I gain understanding.
Through understanding I gain wisdom.
The Will of the Force will guide me.

The Jedi Creed
I am a Jedi, an instrument of peace.
Where there is hatred I shall bring love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.
I am a Jedi.
I shall never seek so much to be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand;
To be loved as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
The Force is always with me, for I am a Jedi.

Three primary tenents of Jediism
Focus
Knowledge
Wisdom


speaks for itself
