LITURGY OF JEDIISM

THE CODE OF THE JEDI

The keys of the Code of the Jedi are an important part of our philosophy. Whoever wants to accomplish themselves in Jediism should thrive to apply its keys in daily life. We call them keys, not rules. The keys are meant to inspire and guide. We do not believe in someone having power over someone else, thus, not even our institution can have power over its members, nor a code have power over your mind. Respect all life; This is the way of the Force. Have faith in the Force, and it will be with you.

13 KEYS OF THE CODE OF THE JEDI

1 Cultivate the Force Every day, take a moment to absorb yourself in the Force. 2 Take shelter in the Force Whenever you feel trialed, take refuge in the Force. Seek out reasonable solutions, handle your responsibilities, and have faith in the Force. 3 Expand within the Force See beyond your senses, perceive beyond the physical realm. Pay attention to what flows within the Force. The Force is everywhere, in everything. 4 Give room to the Force Reserve a small space, somewhere discreet, where you can let the Force inspire you. Be it an altar, a wall of symbolic traits, or a specific sitting area, find a place for your human senses to contemplate representations of the Force. 5 Act with the Force Whatever you do, do it with the Force. Keep the Force in your mind, in your heart, and in your body. Do not allow yourself to think that you are acting alone. 6 Have faith in the Force Let the Force guide your actions. Let your will become the will of the Force. Let the will of the Force become your will. Trust your intuition, and have faith in the Force.

7 Hold high moral principles Seek integrity in your own behaviour. Be virtuous. Have humility, yet strength. Have a sense of justice, yet with compassion. Do not request virtue from others, only from yourself. Those are the principles of a Master of the Force. 8 Emancipate yourself in the Force Practice an activity that implicates the Force (martial arts, qi-gong, creative arts) 9 Accept the mystery of the Force The Force works in a wonderful yet mysterious manner. Accept your actual state of being, and yet keep working at bettering yourself. Have faith in the Force. 10 Study the Force Find ways to feel the Force, do not limit yourself to understand it. Study the Force through experience as much as through intellectual comprehension. 11 Promote the Force Not your organization, not your beliefs, not even Jediism, but promote the Force itself, silently, through your actions and your daily life. Talk about Jediism only when appropriate, and only to those who wish to ear about it. 12 Incarnate the Force Be mindful of every moment, here and now. Focus on the present more than on the past or the future. Be prudent enough to plan ahead, yet detached enough not to expect your plan to work out. Have faith in the Force. 13 Respect, Protect and Preserve all life. The 13th key is the one of hundreds more. Cultivate your interpretation of the 13th key
