Philosophy
editThe Sith Code
Peace is a lie
There is only passion
Through passion I gain strength
Through strength I gain power
Through power I gain victory
Through victory my chains are broken
The Force shall set me free
-Darth Bane[1]
Sith Beliefs
Sith believe that any form of peace is virtually a lie in itself. Sith represent evil and destruction; peace is not even thought of in the Sith world. Sith will do anything to obtain domination, no matter how violent or evil. Their power is driven from their pure passion to succeed. Through their passion they are driven, therefore they grow stronger. The stronger they get the more power they gain, thus an endless cycle of darkness.[2]
The Code of the Sith teaches its followers that strength should be embraced openly. This code is merely a guideline of ideas that should be referenced in becoming a successful Sith Lord. Emotion and passion is the most powerful concept in a Sith realm. [3] The goal of a Sith is domination of strength and power and to rule. Sith are all about creating conflict. Sith will always take chances to gain strength and better themselves.[4]
"The Force gives us all power, even the Jedi. It is our mastery of our passion that gives us the strength they lack." - Yuthura Ban [5]
The Sith Philosophy
The Sith philosophy believes that the improvement of both civilizations were done by conflict and violence. Change, evolution, and adaptation were all caused because of conflict. The stronger the being is, the more the weak will disappear leaving only the truly powerful. The Sith believe that this philosophy is what brings them to true perfection. Conflict is necessary to become great. The Sith believe that the Jedi, who disagreed with this philosophy, are a disablement of change.[6]
The Sith believe any opportunity should be taken, morals aside. Those who refrain are weak and look down upon by the Sith. The Jedi are considered to be weak in the eyes of the Sith because of this. The Sith will always try to become more powerful by the minute, no matter how hard it may be. Conquering morality is the true goal of the Sith. [7]
