Trust Your Intuition and Instincts
by Jedi Kidohdin
Qui-Gon: "Don't worry. The Force will guide us." –Episode I
Qui-Gon: "Concentrate on the moment, feel, don't think, use your instincts." –Episode I
Qui-Gon used the Force for guidance. He had an inner connection to the Force and always trusted his feelings. Jedis developed the skill of `feeling' to a fine art. They were always in touch with their feelings. Unlimited knowledge is available to us within ourselves. We have to make an effort to become conscious of our inner connection to the Force. The connection has always been there, but for some reason most people don't take advantage of it.
If you look at Nature, you quickly realize that animals have the ability to tap into the inner Force. Wild Geese use it for navigational guidance. All migratory birds use it. All animals use it to help them survive. Humans seem to be the only creature that has difficulties connecting to the inner Force.
As Jedis, we need to work on developing this `feeling' skill. This theme is repeated often in Jediism to help us remember: `feel, don't think'. MTFBWY!
