Topics in Jedi Philosophy, Tuesday
"Welcome back," Lana greeted them. "We're back on a different line this week, one that I have a bit less trouble with, if we're being honest." Look, she couldn't help it; she was big on passion. "'There is no chaos, there is harmony'. Now there's a few ways of looking at this one," she said, excited.
"One is, well, much the same as the others - something to work toward. Work to make things more harmonious, more in tune with each other. It's certainly a valid goal. Organize yourself, organize your world. Less in a sense of making them adhere to rigid principles and more in a sense of making everything work together. It's easier to understand things and control them if you can get them to form a harmonious whole." Which might or might not be what the Jedi meant. She was doing her best here.
"Another way of looking at it is that there actually is no chaos - if you can understand the world, understand yourself, you will see the harmony in it. No matter how chaotic something may appear at first, everything has its own harmony if you can only see it."
She grinned. "Personally, I think both views are worthwhile, but which would you take to heart, if either? And how would you work towards it?"

"I'm in favor of chaos," she said with a smile. "I mean, okay, some organization is good, but pretty sure the universe was created out of chaos, so it can't be all bad."
Talk to Lana!
