feeds@yuku.com (Moonshadow) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 23:58:16 GMT

Hello all,

For those of you who don't know me, I'm Moonshadow, one of the co-Administrators of the Jedi Resource Center / Jedi Gatherings Group. We recently upgraded our site and I'd like to invite all of you to check it out.

One of our primary purposes is helping to...

Unity Through Community

feeds@yuku.com (Opie Macleod) — Mon, 11 May 2009 19:09:24 GMT

This is an invitation to an old project with a fresh outlook. It is my hope that you'll read this through to its completion, simply because it is not exactly what most will believe it to be. Years ago there was a website called the Jedi United. This website was developed as a means of Unity Through Community. Unfortunately all members and leaders were too young in the Jedi Path to fully comprehend what was involved and needed for such a project. And eventually after many online dramas...

2009 Michigan Jedi Gathering

feeds@yuku.com (Moonshadow) — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 22:37:01 GMT

Hello all,

If you don't know me, I'm Moonshadow, one of the Administrators of the Jedi Resource Center / Jedi Gatherings Group. Every year we host a Jedi Gathering and I wanted to let you know about the Michigan Gathering coming up this summer.

If you aren't familiar with the concept of Jedi Gatherings, Gatherings are basically a 3-4 day camping trip during which Jedi and other...

Where is everyone.

feeds@yuku.com (Faris Najib) — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 23:33:59 GMT

Greetings,

I was wondering what happened to all of the Jedi that used to post here and at other sites. In my particular situation, my job changed and I have little if any time to be on-line as I used to. I still follow the Jedi Path but off-line. While I greatly miss the Community and try and pop in when I can, I wonder if others are still on the Path or have given up. Those that I miss discussing topics with are Opie, Relan, Arias, Jundal, even Hannigan to an extent. While we often...

Jedi Community Project - Jedi Central Library

Brandel - "Jedi Way" is a wonderful reference I used when I first began...
***********************

I'd like to begin a Jedi Community-wide project establishing a Jedi Central Library for the many writings which exist - and may exist in the future.

I know - I know...

Thank You

Hey Kate I just wanted to say thank you for the things you have added. Without detracting from anything you have written by posting in them.

Hello

feeds@yuku.com (Kate Solusar) — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 13:44:52 GMT

Since I've never posted here before, I thought an introduction was in order. I am a member of Ashla Knights and am an academy instructor there. I have a very special interest in your Jedi Philosophy Compilation project and wanted to participate, which I will do as I am able.

By way of introduction here are two excerpts from my Ashla holocron that give a sense of who I am and my perspective.

have been an active member of the Jedi Order of Ashla Knights since September...

The Cestus Deception: A Clone Wars Novel

feeds@yuku.com (Kate Solusar) — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 13:39:14 GMT

Title: The Cestus Deception: A Clone Wars Novel
Author: Steven Barnes
Publisher: Del Rey/Lucas Books, 2004

I chose to write first about this novel because its message centers around lies and deception and their intended and unintended consequences. This is not a topic generally addressed in society, except for the moral dilemma about lying to Nazi authorities about the Jews you're hiding in your attic in order to save their lives, or some discussion about...

A path out of the jungle

feeds@yuku.com (Nyte) — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 22:22:51 GMT

For someone who is new what is the best way to start onto the Jedi path? I have been searching sites for months to no avail. So far this site has come the closest to what I have been looking for.

Star Wars Roleplaying Game (WEG) Second Edition Revisied and Expanded

An Idea and invitation

feeds@yuku.com (Brandel Valico) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 22:46:46 GMT

Do to some discussion on the Institute for Jedi Realist Studies board I'm going to be undertaking a project.

It's something thats been considered before and even done on small scale here and there. But I'm going to do it full scale and this is to invite everyone who wants to take part to do so.

It's to compile the Jedi Philosophy

The problems are this.

It is indeed very scattered in the fiction. It's alot like fables and myths. In...

What makes one a Jedi

feeds@yuku.com (Brandel Valico) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 19:05:23 GMT

This is a very popular question every so often within the Jedi community. Often this question is also the source of vast differences in answers as well as arguments and issues. Many feel that the Jedi path should have no standards and that no-one has the right to say who is and isn't a Jedi. That it's an all inclusive term open for anyone to use.

I personally disagree.

I feel the Jedi path has room for individuality, But that there are also some things that simply...

Opening Prayer???

feeds@yuku.com (achesoner) — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 15:09:43 GMT

Hey guys hows it goin?

I saw a link to this site from the Jedi temple I think and decided to check it out.

I was wondering if anyone knew who wrote the prayer at the top of the homepage? It's really familiar, but I can't put my thumb on it..

Jonathan (Relan)

feeds@yuku.com (Faris Najib) — Thu, 22 May 2008 00:33:20 GMT

Greetings,

Has anyone had contact with Jonathan? He has not been around in a long time and I was wondering if he is okay. Does anyone know how to contact him other than at a Jedi site?

I look forward to hearing that all is well in his life.

A simple question

feeds@yuku.com (GrtWhtShatk) — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 01:46:50 GMT

What does it mean to you, as an individual, to be a Knight?

Blessings
Butch

A site worth taking a look at.

feeds@yuku.com (GrtWhtShatk) — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 00:51:42 GMT

Over in the resource center forum, in their lounge, I posted the question "What does it mean to be a Knight?" Not to throw stones, but the answers I got were less than stellar. It makes me wonder if some of the community members really have a handle on what it is they profess to believe.

Having said that, I also said, in another post, that I'd been gone for awhile. Well, I've been hanging my hat elsewhere and find the discussions there supportive, insightful...

Jedi Council:

feeds@yuku.com (Opie Macleod) — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 12:27:39 GMT

Okay, so we have a Jedi Council Hall.. How what are the steps to creating a Jedi Council, here? I always feel it is better to start small with individual sites. Working on the idea that if you have a Site that people like, an idea they are attracted to, than the site itself will grow as a Communtiy and may even encompass the Community. Thus setting up a Council within that idea, within that Site, is the best option.

So what is the idea of setting up one here?

Reflection:

feeds@yuku.com (Opie Macleod) — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 22:01:46 GMT

For a place that gets at lest 15 visits a day and over 250 views in the same day, one has to wonder why it is so quiet. The lurker, I get it, but does that actually help in any form what-so-ever? This site has been set-up so people could place reasonable standards (eventually) within the Jedi Order. It has been set-up so those, that would like to see me (and people like me) shut-up, can point and say; "Actually Opie, our guidelines state that this is what a Jedi is and this is what they...

For Real:

feeds@yuku.com (Opie Macleod) — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 21:45:24 GMT

Okay, in a previous point made by me, I have found little has changed. So I am offering this again. Here is my rambling on what the Jedi need to do (as a lot of good talent is being wasted here).

This Community was created by individuals who could not properly explain, define, and pass understanding to the general public. Questions were asked, and the answers did not do justice to the program. What is the history of the Jedi? Yes,...
