Here's something fun and intersting I'd scrounged up.
It may be for fictional Jedi, but some of the precepts CAN be used in real life.
It's good to use for the Roleplay or for writting faniction.
Real life martial artist teachers. Sensi, Sifus etc, teach their charges to be honourable, self controled and compassionate to others around them. They usually abhor people who'd use such skills to bring harm to helpess and innocent people. Lucas had based the Jedi on one if not several martial arts type of codes. (Bushidu)There's a strict code fo conduct to foster respect for the instructors, the fellow students and those outside the dojo, or for the Jedi, the Temple.
Warning, there will be humour, you've been advised.:-D.
Here's the Oath a Padawan and Knight would take.
It's in two parts it seems, Guidlines and the Oath.
1. Never tire of learning. A Padawan Learner or Jedi Knight can learn anywhere and anytime. This is the secret of knowledge.
2. A Padawan Learner or Jedi Knight must always set a good example for other Padawan Learners or Jedi Knights.
3. Always be loyal and never criticize the Jedi Master, instructor or teaching methods.
4. If the Jedi Master or Instructor teaches a technique, practice it and attempt to utilize it.
5. Never be disrespectful to the Jedi Master or Instructor. Though a Padawan Learner or Jedi Knight is allowed to disagree with them, the Padawan Learner or Jedi Knight must first follow the instruction. Then, they can discuss the matter later.
6. A Padawan Learner or Jedi Knight must be always eager to learn and ask questions.
7. NEVER break a trust!!!!!!
I promise to uphold the Jedi Code. I promise to respect all life and to help those weaker than myself. To use the Force only for good; never in anger; only to defend those who cannot defend themselves; to find new ways to improve myself so that I may be an example to others. To give Guidance to those that seek it; While not seeking to lead or rule them.
The above 7 items sound like a good thing to live by.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Master Oath
1. To protect the Jedi Academy, their Padawan Learners, the beings of the land or universe.
2. To provide the highest quality of development, knowledge, and teaching proper techniques to all Padawan Learners or Jedi Knights.
3. To help community and the galaxy through the training of the Way of the Force. To Defend the innocent and the helpless.
4. Never Break A Trust!!!!!!
I will follow my instincts.
I will have peace of mind.
I will have a sound body.
I will fulfil my duties with honor.
I will show etiquette.
I will respect others.
I will have an open mind to increase my knowledge.
I will find happiness, no matter what this day brings.
I will have an indomitable spirit.
I will trust the Light Side of the Force.(Jesus is the Light.)
There is no emotion; There is peace.
There is no ignorance; There is knowledge.
There is no passion; There is serenity.
There is no chaos; There is harmony.
There is no death; There is the Force
(Humm somehow the site I got this from has an extra line. It does make sense though.)
I do have my own explaiantion of the Code as being a balance of the emotions not voiding yourself of them. YOU control them not them controling you. It's not easy, it takes a lot of self control to bite the tongue sometimes when a person is annoying the daylights of you.
Espcially when youwant to whip out the ole' accoustic guitar and preper the "EL Kabong" manuver on them.
It goes thusly. :-) Raise guitar over over head, sight target, yell "EL KABONG!!" bring instrument down with a discourdant clang on target. Ok I'm kidding, I ripped it off Quick Draw McGraw(Cartoon charactor). :-D
