      With all due respect, I thought this video was stating something else, that the solo Padawan ensures a strong bond between Master and Apprentice. The communal version as pointed out has risks and dangers. Sure, this could also happen on an individual scale. I mean, what if Pong Krell had his own Padawan? But the damage on an individual scale is less than if a whole group of Padawans was corrupted by a master.

    Do not forget that the Jedi Order needs its members to remain loyal to the Order and that means creating bonds with their fellow Jedi so that they don’t leave the Order or worse fall to the Dark Side, and the Jedi Order knows that deep down each of their members fundamentally have emotions that they will never be rid off and so they try to create a more friendly environment for their members.

    I loved the campaign that I had with some friends a while back. My Jedi character, Maxie Caelum reflected on her experiences as a Jedi when she went to her Master Baghal. He asked her “do you think you became a capable Jedi, because you had me as a master?” To which she playfully elbows him in the side replying “a capable master? I’d hardly you call that. But definitely a great father.” I loved getting to explore the master-student dynamics with our sith and Jedi players and npcs

    The Jedi’s problem with attachments was based almost entirely on fear of the Dark Side. They believed attachments could lead to the Dark Side, but they were also what pulled many towards the Light. When Bastila Shan fell to the Dark Side, it was the love she and Revan shared that brought her back, and it was Vader’s love for his son that made him sacrifice himself to defeat Sidious. The Jedi argued that the fear of loss was a path to the Dark Side, and yet Yoda himself said “rejoice for those around you that transform into the Force.” The key to preventing attachments from leading to the Dark Side is not to forbid them, but to teach that the ones you love will live on in the Force.

      @lanesmith1465 Not exactly. The Jedi, especially around the time of the Clone Wars, wanted to prevent attachments entirely. As I said, the wisest course of action was to teach that those you love are never truly gone, for they live on in the Force. With that mindset, attachments are not a problem, but a necessity. Anakin once said “Compassion, which I would define as unconditional love, is essential to a Jedi’s life.” The Jedi were encouraged to love, but they were discouraged from loving deeply. If you think that doesn’t make sense, that’s because it doesn’t. It’s completely illogical, not to mention unhealthy from a mental health standpoint.

      @cubescihist6737 Well that's **A** reason but hardly **THE** reason.
      It's actually not as uncommon as you might think for a Jedi Knight to suddenly develop an affection towards their student.
      The role of the master is to protect their padawan, but in some cases, it also works the other way around.
      This is often referred to as a force bond, in which a Jedi Knight and their apprentice share a deep connection through the force. Sometimes it reaches the point where their relationship deepens, despite the Jedi Code forbidding passion or emotion.
      That's usually why the age difference between a Knight and their padawan is greater during the Clone Wars than it was during the days of the Old Republic, in an effort to possibly prevent the former or the latter from being in any kind of romantic relationship whatsoever.

    One of the first flaws of the order is taking the force sensitive children from their parents at such a young age. The local jedi watchman along with the recruiters could still introduce themselves and through using the service core the jedi could still offer instruction but anakin should have been the prime age of removal with the removal from the parents being the first lessons on attachment. Spend some time in the groups fore the core classes and proceede from there. The real lesson needing tought is to form appropriate bonds, to know when to let go, and to know how to process the emotions of loosing bonds.

    I think its important to remember that Jedi do not forbid and in fact encourage love. When the Jedi forbid attachment it doesn't mean one cannot form any bond of familial love or even romantic love necessarily, its the forming of bonds one is unable to let go. Its attachment so strong one is tempted to bend the Force to their will to protect that cause issues. Obi Wan loved Anakin but when Anakin fell to the Dark Side he understood that he could not control the will of the Force to bring him back. Its about accepting fate, and powerful bonds can make that hard

    I think the problem was Jedi philosophy. They tried to get rid of emotions instead of learning to control them. This deprived them of many useful qualities, such as empathy. During the trial of Ashoka, Anakin showed that it is possible to remain attached to another person and not get carried away by emotions in a difficult moment. Obi-Wan, in trying to kill Anakin against his feelings, not only missed the chance to save his friend, but also destroyed himself. If it weren't for his attachment to Luke, he would have fallen

    While it's true that Exar Kun and Ulic Qel-Droma were trained in small groups by their Master, I don't remember seeing the Jedi recruiting their Padawans at a young age exclusively back then. We did see that Nomi Sunrider starting to train as a Jedi as an adult was no problem at all for the Jedi. Even her just having lost her husband and raising a child was no hindrance.
    While Jedi Master Vodo-Siosk Baas's teaching of Exar Kun, Crado and Sylvar was flawed, I don't think giving each of them a single Master would have changed much. Meanwhile Jedi Master Arca Jeth's training of Ulic Qel-Droma, Cay Qel-Droma and Doneeta only failed in the case of Ulic and only because of his bond to his Master after Arca's death and Ulic being too headstrong to begin with as he never listened to anyone besides Master Arca.
    Which can be seen by Ulic pushing back his friend Doneeta, his brother Cay and his lover Nomi when they reached out to help him. They even infiltrate an enemy stronghold to rescue him, which he refuses. Interestingly, he even let them go. Only in a fit of anger did he really turn against them when he killed his brother. An act that brought him back from the Dark Side and made him realize how far he had fallen.
    While these two cases were probably among the reasons why a Jedi Master teaching a small group of Padawan's, it's questionable to say that this style is inherently flawed, as these are the only two cases I know where the only that could be seen as a failure. Considering that the problematic bond between Master and Padawan is usually weaker with more Padawan's and that they have people in a similar situation as well as sometimes the same age to talk to this system might have resulted in more balanced personalities.
    At least it looked like the Jedi, despite their differences, were a much more cohesive group that talked much more among each other than the later, much more strict incarnation of the Jedi Order.

      The channel loves twisting things to make the PT Jedi how things should be and people's dislike of them as being misunderstandings. Since the PT only did one padawan to one Master, they had to use Exar Kun as the reason why it's "obvious" group padawans to one master doesn't work.
      What it fails to address is that the one master/one padawan system can cause the Jedi to lose valuable and talented potential padawans. Yoda basically had to force Jinn to work with Obi-Wan to get the man to take Kenobi on as his padawan.

    I think a glaring oversight in this video is that you didn't discuss what happened to younglings that didn't make it to the Padawan stage. They're *still* Force-sensitive, after all, even if they're never "real" Jedi. What happened to the younglings that became part of the Service corps -- librarians, farmers, medics or joined the Explorer corps? Did they have their own, informal "masters", or were they still trained in groups?

    (Hot take) but the Jedi were right about not having attachments but the misconception fans have comes down to them thinking attachments and relationships are the same thing, they’re not. An attachment is only one kind of relationship with there being other types of relationships such as connections. The difference between a connection vs an attachment is that with an attachment your love for a certain person stems from wanting to get something out your relationship with them, such as how they make you feel. These feelings could be calmness, comfort, happiness, and safety. This in turn leads your happiness becoming mostly dependent on them and this normally leaves to a since of possessiveness and entitlement where you want to keep the ones you care about close to you at all cost even if it becomes overbearing for your loved ones.
    In the case of a connection It’s about giving yourself to others where the relationship you have for someone isn’t that of self gain but rather unconditional love. You love that person no matter how they make you feel. You accept that things aren’t always going to stay the way you want them to. Love is a roller coaster of ups and downs where it can be strong and sodden and even cruel at times, but part having a connection is learning to accept the good with the bad which allows you to be more grateful of the good moments. That’s the beauty of a connection.
    It was Luke having a connection that saved his father not an attachment. When Luke refused to kill Vader he didn’t feel he was entitled to have his father save him and to turn back to the light. He knew he’d most likely die by the emperor hands but he didn’t care because he loved his father even after all the pain he put him through. The kind of unconditional love is not something you’d get out of an attachment but rather a genuine connection.

    • @morlath4767
      @morlath4767 Před 18 dny

      The issue here is that the Jedi (and Geetsy agrees) are aware it's very difficult to teach people to have healthy relationships without them becoming attachments, so it's easier to just leave it a blanket "no attachment" rule that forces each Jedi to hopefully realise there's a difference. But this can result in some pretty crapp situations like Bariss and her master, Mundi and his 'meh' attitude towards his family, and Yoda's "welp, you got to kill Anakin now. No point in wondering how he came to this" reaction when he and Kenobi are watching Anakin's murder spree in the temple.

  • @Mech299

    I actually think that there might've been a better system, insofar as comraderie and wisdom, that the jedi could've employed. Instead of a single Master teaching their Padawan to completion, multiple masters take over at different legs of the padawan's journey. This not only gives the padawan different experiences and context for how other people teach and what styles they learn best from, but it keeps attachments from forming too deeply, and allows the Jedi Masters of the order more freedom, so that there are "Open" Jedi Knights/Masters at any given time to train more Jedi, increasing the speed at which Padawans could be added to the order since there wasn't a waiting list of available Knights to train them.
    But the biggest benefit of this system I think? Is that because bonds do still form between most Jedi, and other Jedi will be trained by this method too, it means that everyone's a bit more familiar with everyone else in the order of their relative age ranges. More Jedi know more other Jedi, are willing to trust other Jedi implicitly, because they have personal experience with more of them. More than once we've seen certain Masters not trust other Jedi that they haven't worked with before, or Padawans judging the Padawan of another Master. Doing it this way creates an ever-expanding net of familiarity that the monastic order can only benefit from, and easily identify problem Masters when multiple Padawans under them don't turn out so well when they transfer to other Masters.

    I do love how Exar Kun is used as the prime example of why a Master having a group of Padawans doesn't work. Just like the Jedi, Geetsy takes one bad example from the galaxy's history and uses it as the 'proof' that a system doesn't work in order to promote the benefits of the current (PT) one.

    I think that loads of people in the comments fail to grasp that the Dark Side is a very serious thing.
    It is not the other side of the Force. The Dark Side is closer to a cancer in the Force it is an abnormality. It can't be balanced nor controlled. It can only be suppressed.
    I mean we ARE slapped on the face with the character of Dooku who thought that the Dark Side could be used for good in small dosis. By the end he was another deranged Sith, but was good at hidding it.
    Also people who think Luke's Jedi Order was better... in both cannon and Legends Luke more or less failed.
    In cannon, well it is obvious.
    But Legends is more subtle, the more time passes, the more Luke is forced to adopt the old teachings, because the non-ending amount of problems he faces.
    The Jedi Order lasted far more than any Sith Order, becasue their practices being Draconian, they WORK and are NEEDED.
