[Open] Aspects of the Force

Subject Requested:
Aspects of the Force

Public/Private Lesson:
I am requesting this class for both me and Padawan Besk who asked to be included. I believe he would want this lesson to be public

Availability:
((For me it is different on day-to-day basis))

Reason For Request:
We had a debate with padawan Besk (I attatched it bellow in case you want to see what questions lead to this request). I was asked to request class for the two of us as padawan Besk said he likes to focus on only one thing at the time.

We were wondering about this nature of the Force: what belongs where, did the Force at the begining just alocated part of itself and that is the physical realm we are in? What if these aspects get mixed up - or, well, “what belongs to where”? And, well, some other things.
I can offer the two of us to write down questions but since we likely don’t have sufficient knowledge to come up with actually relevant questions, I figured I would ask first if you even want that: I don’t mean to waste anyone’s time.

I went through our conversation, copied what I considered relevant, separated it using colors to try make it more easy to understand. It is in Additional informations. I figured that way it will be the easiest to get answers to questions we asked and understand our point of view and reasonings.
I also just want to make sure I included padawan Besk in annotations as he asked me to - I, uh, hope I did it right that is.

I hope I didn’t mess up.

Additional Information:
Um, when I was talking about the canibalism possibly being against the Will of the Force, I meant it more like… I was told that we are borrowed this body, this cell, by the Force, right? And we are to work with that and once we die we return to the Force, because we belong to it, we are its extention. So, maybe, the mind and the body could be separated; however, both belong to the Force and will return to it or be reused in its respective ways. So, in theory, if we kill it is against the Will, right? But what we do is just murder and end the life. But, if we also eat the body, we don’t allow it to return to the Force properly, because we use it as a fuel for our own bodies, which feels selfish. Prolongue its return. Would the Force want it? When? How would we tell? What do you think about this point of view? If it made sence then it could be possibly true for every Jedi, meaning regardles of culture we come from every Jedi should avoid canibalism. I don’t think there is specie that -has- to specifically feed on another one is there.

The flesh is just that, it is a creation of The Force but it is a reflection of it more than it is something that literally goes back to The Force. In many ways, it is just part of the cycle of life itself and whatever happens to it is just a continuation of this cycle. Even in nature, when things die they don't just simply go back to the source of life that is The Force, but they decay or are consumed by animals, worms or other lifeforms and they use the remains as a way to create more life, forming a cycle that in most cases seems to be never-ending. Maybe, there will come a time where life will cease to exist in the entire universe and only in that scenario I can imagine the material bodies going back to The Force.

The same is not what happens with your essence, which is the thing that makes you actually you. Once you pass from this life your essence goes back to the cosmic Force and you become part of this great source once more. I don't know what happens afterwards, I guess its one of those great mysteries.


Hm, if my essence goes back to the Force, why would my essence that is inside Taanir stay?
You remember how we spoke about how some things that we care about keep our essence? Some objects do that easier then others? So, if my essence leaves from my body to join the Force, shouldn’t my essence also leave that object?
And, if it does not, does it mean that it will exist in that object for ever?
So, in theory, my essence is immortal, as long as the object it is inside of stays.
And, since my essence is what makes me me, I am also basically immortal, as long as my essence exists.
Not like I would want to live forever or anything. I would not want that. I just figured it was interesting point of view and thought to voice it out loud.
[…]
One more thing. Cosmic Force…? So, does that mean that the galaxy has its own type of Force? Are there multiple types of the Force? Do all of them have their own Will? What if you accidentally, as essence, go to non-cosmic Force?


The Cosmic Force and The Living Force are two aspects of The Force, one regarding its relationship to existence itself and the other one regarding its influence in life. This is not something that I can easily explain, as it elludes me too a bit, its more of the realm of what a Jedi Master can teach since they are more cultured in this area.
About the aspects of The Force, make the formal request of the class and make sure to include me in the annotations. I'd most certainly be interested in being a part of it. I can not make the request as I already have a pending class requested.
