Generating Love & Compassion

-
Article by Therrien Xavier.

In our world of turmoil and unrest, sometimes I look around and think to myself, where is the love? Where is the compassion? Why must others treat not only themselves but the people around them so badly? Yes it is true that in today's society that the number one thing we tend to be missing is compassion for others. We have become self centered, egomaniacs who are indeed the most careless and what would almost seem like soul-less beings that have ever walked the Face of our great planet.

We can generate through the will of the Force Love & Compassion for each other if we simply try. For example, have you ever felt so down and out and then someone came around or into your life and said a kind word or did something that made you feel %100 better? If so focus on this memory and meditate on how it made you feel. Now that you are feeling the warmth of compassion in your heart why would you not want to spread the compassion like a virus? Lets make compassion go viral in our world. Treat others the way you want to be treated. So I present to you the Jedi Quest Challenge. If you come across this blog repost this article on Fb or any other social media outlet that you use. Lets work together to create more love in this world and take the Jedi Quest Challenge.

The Last Jedi: From a certain point of View

First I would like to say before viewing The Last Jedi I did have expectations but I let them go in order to view the film in an unbiased way. From a aesthetic view of the film I can't lie I was a little let down by the movie, I felt it lacked scope and it felt kind of bland in color, however in story and character development I have to say I love the direction that Disney/Lucasfilm is taking the Star Wars Universe. I hear people now complain about The Last Jedi being a Edgy-Socio commentary and with this I have one thing to say. In the words of Master Yoda in TLJ. "We are what they grow beyond, that is the burden of all masters."  To me this sums up the new film and the direction that the future films are going. Disney and Lucasfilm know that somewhere along the lines that Star Wars has to evolve to fit with modern day philosophical thought to stay relevant and not to keep rehashing the past. It is safe to say I believe that the days of Death Stars and Death St

Fear can be a powerful ally.

Article by Therrien Xavier. When we look into the mystery that we call the Force, one of our most damning blockages is fear, fear of the unknown and the unexpected. But what if we could use fear to our own advantage? What if fear isn't something to really fear at all? From a very narrow and dogmatic Jedi point of view fear is the path to the dark side, fear leads hate and hate leads to suffering. But this isn't about Jedi or Sith no we are moving on, ever flowing with the Force. I tell you now that fear can be one of your most powerful allies and you can use fear to manifest things in life that you never thought were possible. Through the Force we seek to help others and that is fine and dandy but there comes a time when we need to help ourselves, the dogmatic view in Jedi Philosophy is that a Jedi is to be selfless and that is simply (Not Healthy) both mentally, physically, & spiritually sometimes we have to a little selfish. Have you ever had a time where you sat

The Philosophies of Master Bruce Lee

Article by Therrien Xavier. Let me say first and foremost that I am "Not" a martial artist. But not being a martial artist does not mean that there is nothing to gain from Master Bruce. Bruce Lee's Philosophy of Non-Form makes up the basic outline of my own personal philosophy. I do not settle on one set idea or belief as there is always room for improvement whether that be physical, mental or spiritual we can improve ourselves by remaining in a constant state of change and adaptability. Bruce's philosophies are some of the most profound philosophies that we can apply in our everyday lives to grow past the boundaries of who we are by using no way as a way and no limitation as limitation meaning that our limitations are what we make of them. Master Bruce also believed in being one's self and to always express yourself and always have faith in yourself. He began at starting at the root of who we are and asking ourselves "How can I be me?"
