The Twelve Steps of Star Wars

I

I am a Farmer - Things Could Be Better :

"If there is a Bright Centre to The Universe, you are on The Planet it is Farthest From"

II

I Could Do That - But I Can't :

"Alderaan? I'm not going to Alderaan, I've gotta get home, it's late, I'm in for it as it is!

Look, I can't get involved. I've got work to do. 

It's not that I like the Empire; I hate it, but there's nothing I can do about it right now... 

It's all such a long way from here."

III

I am Going to Do That :

" I want to learn The Ways of The Force and Become 

a Jedi Like My Father "

IV

Ask Me Your Question Bridgekeeper, I am Not Afraid..!

"You Will Be... You Will Be..."

V

Confession is Good for The Soul

"I... I killed them. I killed them all. 

They're dead... every single one of them. 

And not just the men. 
But the women... and the children, too. 

They're like animals, and I slaughtered them like animals! 

I HATE THEM!!

I'm a Jedi. I can be better than this.

[ But you are not a Jedi yet...]

VI
Be Open to Change

"We'll take him together.."
"No, I'm taking him now!!"

VII

Ask for Punishment and Seek Correction 

"No. I  am Your Father"

VIII

Say Sorry.

"Noooooooooo...!!!"

IX

Make Direct Amends

"Why do I get the feeling you're going to be the Death of Me?"

X

Be Ever Mindful of Your Own Hypocrisy 
- Don't Cheat People

"There is No Civility, Only Politics."

XI

Strive to Attain a Permanant State of Sanctifying Grace

( Be Mindful of The Living Force )

"Strange that  I have not...."

XII

Take on an Apprentice and Together Begin to Recruit Disciples

"I look forward to beginning your training, My Young Apprentice."

Sith Lordship and Knighthood Under The Rule of Two

You only Become Sith by Killing a Sith - in Cold Blood.

Or trying to.

This Does Not However Mark the Start of Your Formal Training...

But you are now an Apprentice.

Whether you know it or not... 

Sith Knighthood and Apprenticeship Exists as a 

Progressive Series of Contracts 

Between Master and Applicant/Apprentice

From The Book of The Sith :

"Now that We have achieved Victory, and The Jedi are no more, I shall institute 

A Rule of One

I have no intention of training my Successor..."

- Darth Sideous

Then your successor must, by necessity, be entirely 

Self-Taught...

The Ultimate Father Murders Children

The Operative: 

I'm sorry. If your quarry goes to ground, leave no ground to go to. You should have taken my offer. Or did you think none of this was your fault? 

Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: 

I don't murder children. 

The Operative: 

I do. If I have to. 

Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: 

Why? Do you even know why they sent you? 

The Operative: 

It's not my place to ask. 

I believe in something greater than myself. 

A better world. A world without sin. 

Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: 

So me and mine gotta lay down and die... so you can live in your better world? 

The Operative: 

I'm not going to live there. 

There's no place for me there... any more than there is for you. 

Malcolm... I'm a monster. 

What I do is evil. I have no illusions about it, but it must be done.

The Ones Who Will Bring Balance

Walter Sobchak:

 I'm saying, I see what you're getting at, Dude, he kept the money. My point is, here we are, it's shabbos, the sabbath, which I'm allowed to break only if it's a matter of life or death...

The Dude: 

Will you come off it, Walter? You're not even fucking Jewish, man.

Walter Sobchak: 

What the fuck are you talkin' about?

The Dude: 

Man, you're fucking Polish Catholic...

Walter Sobchak: 

What the fuck are you talking about? I converted when I married Cynthia! Come on, Dude!

The Dude:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

Walter Sobchak: 

And you know this!

The Dude: 

Yeah, and five fucking years ago you were divorced.

Walter Sobchak: 

So what are you saying? 

When you get divorced you turn in your library card? 

You get a new license? 

You stop being Jewish..? 

I'm as Jewish as fucking Tevye.

The Dude: 

It's all a part of your sick Cynthia thing, man. Taking care of her fucking dog. Going to her fucking synagogue. You're living in the fucking past.

Walter Sobchak: 

Three thousand years of beautiful tradition, from Moses to Sandy Koufax...

You're goddamn right I'm living in the fucking past! 

I'm... Jesus. What the hell happened...

Life Coaching with George Lucas

Life Coaching with George Lucas : How to Demand What You Want for Other People to Do, Get Your Own Way, and Not Turn into a MonumentallyEgotistical Prick

Why I Try to Fix You (and Now I Won't)

"I’ve come across people that have no imaginations at all, and it’s a very interesting… .

I was shocked the first time I came across it. 

And — because I just assumed everybody had an imagination.

And when you — you confront somebody who doesn’t, especially a child, it’s a very interesting and profound thing to me. 

It — an imagination is a — is a trait, you know. 

It’s like anything else. It’s a — it’s a — it’s a talent, or it’s an ability you have to cope. 

Like Dreaming."

- George Lucas

It's about being an alchemist. And sometimes an exorcist as well.

That's what we do - that's how we heal, that's why we're here.

Most people will eventually accumulate so much toxic energy from birth injuries, mother wounds, father wounds, PTSD, every kind of childhood or adult trauma possible, and just don't know what to do with it, how to be free of it and released from it - they just carry it and stockpile it somewhere down in their subconscious (if they are fortunate enough to be able to fully suppress it, without it overwhelming them - and even if they can, it still remains TOXIC, so they are only hanging onto it as a contingency arrangement, albeit extended indefinitely, until they depart from This World)

What we can do (either with them or for them) is free them of those evil ghosts (or try to), and transmute that spiritual toxic waste into light and healing - both for themselves and for The World generally.

Just don't expect to have your labours recognised by anybody, or ever to be told 'Thank You' - that WILL happen, but that's not why we do it, and you should never expect to be gratefully noticed with honest praise by non-Empaths, because they just are not operating on that level. Yet.

But they eventually will be, and that's the whole purpose of the exercise - just don't expect to be properly rewarded. You probably won't be. Yet.

You Must Confront Vader

"Vader is Really The Ultimate Father"
