Not As Hot

Today we are expecting a high of only 103. It was 107 yesterday but the temperature in my truck said 113 where we were. Yesterday while we were at my niece’s house I spent the morning and part of the afternoon being the designated pool watcher while my grandson and great-great niece swam. They had a ball in the pool, getting out to snack on donuts and later some watermelon to hydrate. We had Mexican food from my son-in-law’s family restaurant for lunch and they continued on with the remodel and the kids got back in the pool. On our way home we stopped and picked up an order from Wal-Mart then did our weekly shopping at Sam’s Club so we didn’t have to worry about doing those things today. By the time we got home it was around 4:30 pm so I took my ½ gram of Rick Simpson Oil and ate leftover Mexican food for dinner. By 7 pm I was high, relaxed and ache free for the evening, getting ready to watch mindless television. My sciatic bothered me pretty much all day yesterday, not painful, just enough to know the ache was there. I will tell you, this aging thing really sucks. I know at my age of 64, after the way I beat this body up for years, I’m going to have some form of aches. It is bound to happen. I’ll take those minor aches, they are no big deal to me, it is to be expected at this point in my life. It doesn’t mean I have to like it and I’m doing everything possible to stay as active as I can with the limitations I have. With a neck made of titanium (S2-S7), two metal rods from the back of my head into my shoulders and a body full of arthritis, I’m not doing too bad at this point. Minor aches are to be expected, it is my body reminding me I’m still alive and to keep on moving. It is my mantra and I’m doing my best to stick with it. It sucks that so much has happened over the last several months, we haven’t even been camping once this year! Normally we camp from March through May at the lake. After that it is too hot and you have to go further north for cooler temperatures. We start camping again in the middle of September through the end of October so we are hoping things will have settled down by then and we might get out there this fall. I haven’t been able to get my paddle board in the water yet either. Today we are getting ready to head over to my niece’s house so my husband and daughter can finish up with the texturing and get started in the kitchen. We don’t plan on being over there too long today as my husband goes to bed by 3 pm to wake up by 11:30 pm for work. I plan on being outside sitting in the shade, enjoying the warmth on my bones. I always have my swimsuit with me just in case it gets too hot and I need to cool off or I simply walk into the house to do the same. I’ve been staying as hydrated as possible, I know how important that is living in the desert. It is important to start hydrating yourself the night before if you know you’ll be out in the heat the next day. So I make sure I drink plenty of water all day long, even when I’m in the house. I’d rather be safe than sorry when it comes to the heat! You never get used to the high temperatures, you just learn better ways to deal with it. Either today or tomorrow I need to make another trip to my favorite dispensary, Zenleaf, to stock up on more Rick Simpson Oil. I’ve got enough Brix THC gummies to hold me over for today, so I’ll see how I feel once we get home and decide then. I imagine with the 4th of July coming the dispensary will have a good sale this upcoming weekend so I’ll be able to better stock up for even less. That is really what I do, I watch for the sales or go to the dispensary on days I know they have 35% off. It keeps it budget friendly that way. All I know is I feel so much better managing my chronic pain with marijuana than I ever did on opioids. It is a difference like night and day. All because I chose a plant over a pill. Thank you marijuana!

Ideology: The Thirty-six Sith Rules

Ideology: The Thirty-six Sith Rules

Tenets are the principles or rules about nature that allows one to confront or face oneself or others, in a way that will help one understand knowledge, knowledge of oneself or others, physical or metaphysical. To see what awesome power you have within yourself as a being that is one its way to garnering a whole and healthy mind. It’s meant to help keep track of what is your advancement through the paths of Sithism, from inner destruction, transformation, and self-mastery. Tenets or precepts is basically the path of power that Sith follow.

Sith Ideology is based upon gaining the most out of an individual, so that they train their minds to become like a weapon of their will and perspective. Being able to wield it like a sword to enact change, adaption, or advancement in the world at large, its consistent with struggle, which is fundamentally struggle is also about growth, evolution, and adaption. To grow with the power, wisdom, knowledge or illumination, to evolve with the times and be able to use values like conflict so as to get stronger, overcome adversity or face risks, and to adapt which is to be able to get in touch with your true nature, become true to yourself, and work to overcome circumstance by claiming victories, as well as to put yourself and your will and agenda in advantageous position compared to all other wills vying for domination in this Darwinian struggle.

The way you decide to think about yourself and affects and helps you reflect on your true hunger for power (thanks to Lady Kurai Kage for the suggestion). We work on ourselves to drop the false pretences of living a lie, living according to base survival rather than trying to reveal and integrate with our true nature, a powerful inner black flame, we wish to remake ourselves and understand and awaken our true personality. The ideology will help us in achieving this confronting and integrating of the true self or shadow self as we call it in the ways of Sithism. There is no way back once you decide to take a myriad of paths through Sith ideology, once you confront yourself your old self may fall away in the black flame, replaced with something more akin to powerful, sovereign, and complete individual.

We will look at these different aspects of Sith ideology, the training, rules or maxims and what it takes to become a higher man/woman. As Sith Shadows, we acknowledge we are always evolving and as our perception changes our world changes. All people will hopefully learn how to tap into themselves and the natural cycle of evolution through different means to empower themselves on a deeper level. This path isn’t a one all be all path. You must use what will grant you a healthier or practical application of what will work for you. It’s the way of the Endarkened for the Sith.

Tenets and higher ideology are both about natural state of empowerment that is imbued in most if not all human beings, these truths govern our reasoning and behaviour. Human beings have a philosophy derived from their desire to own and improve their body, mind, spirit, and will, perfect and raise themselves up to gain personal freedom. Ultimately this is about self mastery for power, continual development, and inner transformation for inner strength and power.

1. Action from expert, philosophy, psychology or mythology type of knowledge is most conducive to wielding power. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do. Power is what leads to freedom or prestige.
2. The strong rule with iron wills and the weak should be submitting or subject to the will of the strong and willingly follow their authority. Tyranny is mistreatment like depriving people of individual liberty, liberty is allowing good choices that elevate us (self-development, growth and transformation) and being free from self-limitation and hindrance.
3. Every decision must further your power.
4. Never deny your passion and your power. Passion is what drives you or fuels you on to achieve things, its what elevates you day to day and what makes you feel good. Power is what people find naturally compelling and be your subordinates, be subject to your will and recognize your legitimacy as an authority. Hunger or passion will get you find the answer you require. What’s the way to gain status? It’s through actions of merit, be it aptitude or skill.
5. Anything that is perfect or great can be achieved through great passion, struggle or sacrifice. The struggle for dominance is the struggle for perfection.
6. Will and perception is a prerequisite to your power, you cannot start to gain power unless you have a firm basis in that of will and sithy attitude (sovereign wills, discipline and mental training).
7. What does not kill us makes us stronger. Trials, tribulations, desires and experiences makes us a little stronger every time we try to overcome such impositions, difficult circumstances, discomfort and minutia. Each time we’re undergoing hardship we can grow from it.
8. The Sith, being opposed to all the light side/Jedi values, do not encourage selfless love, compassion, charity, attachment, passivity, balance, and peace. These things really weaken one and make one taken advantage of or helping others at the expense of one’s interests without gaining anything in return, not even inspiring change in the behaviour or worldview of the beneficiary. The idea of self-interest is essentially about realizing one’s own values or interests the can best lead to lasting fulfilment, whereas oppression is justified through peace which is a violation of our ethics to seek happiness and freedom.
9. Give yourself over to the belief that you will not calculate to live according to materialistic doctrine, don’t accept what they call ‘comfortable and complacent lifestyle’ and act in such a way that you will not be tempted to return to it. The darwinian struggle to overcome ones enemies, ensure survival and accomplish ones cause of freeing oneself from self-limitation and hindrance, and creating order. Idealism is the belief that ideas rule the world, rather then material needs. Leaders arise because of invoking a particular spirit, character and politics.
10. Thought and action should be geared towards both seeing the good in that which people call “bad” or “negative”, and choose action over abstraction. An aspiring Sith Lord is encouraged to see the negative emotions or instincts he or she sees in themselves as a potential source of power.
11. Actions in service to the dark side give you the benefits of the force. That will unlock understanding, knowledge and devotion, and the dark side is where your most potent latent power resides at. The light side is peace, pacifism, dispassion, selflessness, sacrifice and service and can be the expense of oneself.
12. The power of the dark side is best wielded from the shadows, the shadows is where you can gain power without sacrificing ones complete agenda, plan, mission or purpose and ones sinister goals (sovereign goals). The best way to maintain a secret from an enemy, is not to tell it to a friend. Don’t tell your full plan to anyone, give pieces to those who have perform their role well, have expertise or power, thus have a goal or purpose to serve.
13. Being in control of one’s actions or goals is willpower. This requires difficulty or challenge in order to gain wisdom over our own reactions, so that we aren’t triggered by events or experiences and instead head off those reactions and act reasonably when others expect you to act predictably.
14. The ultimate goal of the Sith is to evolve beyond all limitations, including whatever limits nature and nurture might have imposed upon the individual Sith lord. We want to eliminate all anguish or pain from ourselves, so to that end, we remove self-limitation or hindrance. Without knowing the self, one can’t control the darkness of the self through discipline. And without self control and a liberated will, one can never achieve control over the reality of their microcosm, let alone the macrocosm.
15. The Sith teach that we must harness our emotions and to that end we must learn to not restrain our emotions. We must not be ignorant of our emotions and abilities. We must reach inside and grip those emotions tightly when they burn too brightly, so that we don’t burn out.
16. We wish to realize order through strength. Order is the fundamentals of society that are greater than the sum of their elements, that is survival, growth, competition, prosperity, creativity and freedom.
17. The Sith want what is best in us, whats best in us is the Sith code; strength, power, and victory, which allows us to achieve anything and become successful.
18. Arbitrary authority are meant to make us miserable and in despair, like arbitrary fiat. We wish to set ourselves free from the shackles of lightside’s arbitrary authority that impose peace, violate our free will and regulate anti-conflict.
19. The Sith apprentice is expected to be obedient to their master and to follow their orders without question.
20. You shall place yourself above the weak. You are above those who are merely content with their lot in life, it’s at these moments you must leave people behind unless you wish to be held from your goals.
21. Triumph over one’s struggles gains one strength. Struggle is grappling with our inner pain, turmoil or contentment, struggle is also about growth, evolution and adaption.
22. Combativeness or conflict enhances strength and brotherhood. The rule of many is based on this. Where many people are asked to compete with one another, choose an opponent with similar characteristics. Triumph over one’s struggles gains one strength also.
23. We must continually restart the cycle of the Sith code by gaining new goals. If you find yourself lacking in a goal, learn your passions well. Its never too late to do so. Find five of your passions and focus most of your energy on the five goals that are based on them.
24. Your main ways of ascertaining what is true to you rather than what is useless or flawed is logic, reason, passion and experience. Learn to build knowledge into your wisdom based off your experiences.
25. A human resource is the most natural resource of all. Utilize manipulation and dark psychology which allows one to use human resources for ones interests, for attainment of our goals.
26. Sith indulge with restraint, in that indulgence while is desirable, pleasurable, and satisfying, indulging with restraint earns one a certain level of difficulty or challenge, and builds up self-control. Sith indulge with restraint and embrace their emotions, in any way shape or form, we accept the way we feel and don’t deny or neglect our emotions. Without restraint on our emotions leads to power and potential.
27. Sith engage in challenges to test ones strength and increase the mental, physical and spiritual growth.
28. Don’t settle for status any less deserving then what your aptitude, skills or abilities can prove.
29. Become the new lords, don’t settle for anything less than living in according to the Sith rules, tenets and ideology in a noble manner. Live a life of effort, do things with the intention for excellence, doing your duty when people shirk, mock or it’s frowned upon is still best.
30. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do.
31. There is no victory without a strong backbone or courage. All tenets, all excellence, all progress, all educational and all cultural benefits are based on first being able to face adversity, criticism, critique and to keep your cool and stay classy when you need to effectively communicate across your ideas, will, agenda or perspective.
32. Power without a foundation of great strength and responsibility is nothing but a compelling blunder, carries with it a measure of respect or influence but does not lead to real world status, victory, or other things. It’s very vulnerable to difficulty, tension, and indecision.
33. We must be able to deal with circumstances grounded in our knowledge, preparation, and in our spirit/potential. Potential is gained by determination and passion, and potential is trained by difficult or challenging work. Power is maximizing potential.
34. Cautious agreement will win allies. Make sure you have a reasonable degree of certainty you can accomplish it in a reasonable timeframe.
35. Casual complements go a long way. Even superficial ones.
36. Stand your ground.

The foundations of what it means to be a modern Sith are commitment, self-mastery, and self-deification. The ideal behind the self-mastery concept is complete control over yourself, your future, your emotions, your temper and well-being, gaining supreme control over our own body and mind, its personal responsibility, objectivity and being able to compel many people personally or politically. Commitment is your weapon or tool of achieving success where others give in. Self-deification is seeing your beauty or power, and putting yourself above all false religions, unworthy arbitrary authority, and false constructs, for example, social norms and social pressures.

Sith Advantages:

The Sith are most interested in absorbing and accumulating energy or vril. With the increase in energy your passion and power increases, as this is brought to you by the dark side focus and wisdom of the phenomena of the dark poles. Energy gained means you can gain greater understanding, knowledge and devotion.

Empire means understanding your darkness and spreading your shadow mind influence through seduction and persuasion.

Sith increase their knowledge and wisdom to be able to relinquish the chains of any of the masses or normies, to endear ourselves to others, increase potency to become the one who enacts his or her will, and set the agenda so as to be able to increase ones powers.

The dark side means freedom. Freedom gained through victory can mean freedom for all. By attaining freedom, you are set free by the very force since it breaks all social conditioning from you by gnosis or wisdom because you face your darkness, you are the wielding the force. (Edwin Ferreira, The Way of the Sith)

Many Sith view reputation with high value. However, being able to remove the power of opinion others have over you and how it affects you is a strength. Removing their power is a power in itself. Focus on what you can control, like opinion, desire, aversion, and pursuits, in a phrase, whatever are our own actions, and embrace or accept what you cannot control, like property, infirmities, status/reputation, disease, and death, whatever are not our actions. (Edwin Ferreira, The Way of the Sith)

Ideology: The Thirty-six Sith Rules

Ideology: The Thirty-six Sith Rules

Tenets are the principles or rules about nature that allows one to confront or face oneself or others, in a way that will help one understand knowledge, knowledge of oneself or others, physical or metaphysical. To see what awesome power you have within yourself as a being that is one its way to garnering a whole and healthy mind. It’s meant to help keep track of what is your advancement through the paths of Sithism, from inner destruction, transformation, and self-mastery. Tenets or precepts is basically the path of power that Sith follow.

Sith Ideology is based upon gaining the most out of an individual, so that they train their minds to become like a weapon of their will and perspective. Being able to wield it like a sword to enact change, adaption, or advancement in the world at large, its consistent with struggle, which is fundamentally struggle is also about growth, evolution, and adaption. To grow with the power, wisdom, knowledge or illumination, to evolve with the times and be able to use values like conflict so as to get stronger, overcome adversity or face risks, and to adapt which is to be able to get in touch with your true nature, become true to yourself, and work to overcome circumstance by claiming victories, as well as to put yourself and your will and agenda in advantageous position compared to all other wills vying for domination in this Darwinian struggle.

The way you decide to think about yourself and affects and helps you reflect on your true hunger for power (thanks to Lady Kurai Kage for the suggestion). We work on ourselves to drop the false pretences of living a lie, living according to base survival rather than trying to reveal and integrate with our true nature, a powerful inner black flame, we wish to remake ourselves and understand and awaken our true personality. The ideology will help us in achieving this confronting and integrating of the true self or shadow self as we call it in the ways of Sithism. There is no way back once you decide to take a myriad of paths through Sith ideology, once you confront yourself your old self may fall away in the black flame, replaced with something more akin to powerful, sovereign, and complete individual.

We will look at these different aspects of Sith ideology, the training, rules or maxims and what it takes to become a higher man/woman. As Sith Shadows, we acknowledge we are always evolving and as our perception changes our world changes. All people will hopefully learn how to tap into themselves and the natural cycle of evolution through different means to empower themselves on a deeper level. This path isn’t a one all be all path. You must use what will grant you a healthier or practical application of what will work for you. It’s the way of the Endarkened for the Sith.

Tenets and higher ideology are both about natural state of empowerment that is imbued in most if not all human beings, these truths govern our reasoning and behaviour. Human beings have a philosophy derived from their desire to own and improve their body, mind, spirit, and will, perfect and raise themselves up to gain personal freedom. Ultimately this is about self mastery for power, continual development, and inner transformation for inner strength and power.

1. Action from expert, philosophy, psychology or mythology type of knowledge is most conducive to wielding power. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do. Power is what leads to freedom or prestige.
2. The strong rule with iron wills and the weak should be submitting or subject to the will of the strong and willingly follow their authority. Tyranny is mistreatment like depriving people of individual liberty, liberty is allowing good choices that elevate us (self-development, growth and transformation) and being free from self-limitation and hindrance.
3. Every decision must further your power.
4. Never deny your passion and your power. Passion is what drives you or fuels you on to achieve things, its what elevates you day to day and what makes you feel good. Power is what people find naturally compelling and be your subordinates, be subject to your will and recognize your legitimacy as an authority. Hunger or passion will get you find the answer you require. What’s the way to gain status? It’s through actions of merit, be it aptitude or skill.
5. Anything that is perfect or great can be achieved through great passion, struggle or sacrifice. The struggle for dominance is the struggle for perfection.
6. Will and perception is a prerequisite to your power, you cannot start to gain power unless you have a firm basis in that of will and sithy attitude (sovereign wills, discipline and mental training).
7. What does not kill us makes us stronger. Trials, tribulations, desires and experiences makes us a little stronger every time we try to overcome such impositions, difficult circumstances, discomfort and minutia. Each time we’re undergoing hardship we can grow from it.
8. The Sith, being opposed to all the light side/Jedi values, do not encourage selfless love, compassion, charity, attachment, passivity, balance, and peace. These things really weaken one and make one taken advantage of or helping others at the expense of one’s interests without gaining anything in return, not even inspiring change in the behaviour or worldview of the beneficiary. The idea of self-interest is essentially about realizing one’s own values or interests the can best lead to lasting fulfilment, whereas oppression is justified through peace which is a violation of our ethics to seek happiness and freedom.
9. Give yourself over to the belief that you will not calculate to live according to materialistic doctrine, don’t accept what they call ‘comfortable and complacent lifestyle’ and act in such a way that you will not be tempted to return to it. The darwinian struggle to overcome ones enemies, ensure survival and accomplish ones cause of freeing oneself from self-limitation and hindrance, and creating order. Idealism is the belief that ideas rule the world, rather then material needs. Leaders arise because of invoking a particular spirit, character and politics.
10. Thought and action should be geared towards both seeing the good in that which people call “bad” or “negative”, and choose action over abstraction. An aspiring Sith Lord is encouraged to see the negative emotions or instincts he or she sees in themselves as a potential source of power.
11. Actions in service to the dark side give you the benefits of the force. That will unlock understanding, knowledge and devotion, and the dark side is where your most potent latent power resides at. The light side is peace, pacifism, dispassion, selflessness, sacrifice and service and can be the expense of oneself.
12. The power of the dark side is best wielded from the shadows, the shadows is where you can gain power without sacrificing ones complete agenda, plan, mission or purpose and ones sinister goals (sovereign goals). The best way to maintain a secret from an enemy, is not to tell it to a friend. Don’t tell your full plan to anyone, give pieces to those who have perform their role well, have expertise or power, thus have a goal or purpose to serve.
13. Being in control of one’s actions or goals is willpower. This requires difficulty or challenge in order to gain wisdom over our own reactions, so that we aren’t triggered by events or experiences and instead head off those reactions and act reasonably when others expect you to act predictably.
14. The ultimate goal of the Sith is to evolve beyond all limitations, including whatever limits nature and nurture might have imposed upon the individual Sith lord. We want to eliminate all anguish or pain from ourselves, so to that end, we remove self-limitation or hindrance.

Ultimately this is about self mastery for power, continual development, and inner transformation for inner strength and power.

1. A Sith is adept at internal power and must be well versed in power philosophy, psychology, occult arts, politics, warrior philosophy, myths, and mass psychology. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do. Power is what leads to freedom or prestige.
2. The strong rule with iron wills and the weak should be submitting or subject to the will of the strong and willingly follow their authority. Tyranny is mistreatment like depriving people of individual choice to follow a path that is their own. Voluntary path is allowing good choices that elevate us (self-development, growth and transformation), and the personal freedom that liberates us from self-limitation and hindrance. The deliberately chosen path frees us.
3. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do. Power is the ability to do things better then ever before, so do not give up on your dreams or vision of a better world. Your reality, once a forceful will is cultivated by a superior discipline or guidance, and either can clear away the destructive, rash, or ineffectual concepts that clutters the rational mind during our most productive years. Either discipline or guidance can remove the dual purposes that we might be conflicted between, sapping out inner energy or desire to take action in the here and now for our self-satisfaction or to feel and be as powerful as those few in the real world we actually admire.
4. Never deny your passion and your power. Passion is what drives you or fuels you on to achieve things, its what elevates you day to day and what makes you feel good. Power is what people find naturally compelling and be your subordinates, be subject to your will and recognize your legitimacy as an authority. Hunger or passion will get you find the answer you require. What’s the way to gain status? It’s through actions of merit, be it aptitude or skill.
5. Anything that is perfect or great can be achieved through great passion, struggle or sacrifice. The struggle for dominance is the struggle for perfection.
6. Will and perception is a prerequisite to your power, you cannot start to gain power unless you have a firm basis in that of will and sithy attitude (sovereign wills, discipline and mental training).
7. What does not kill us makes us stronger. Trials, tribulations, desires and experiences makes us a little stronger every time we try to overcome such impositions, difficult circumstances, discomfort and minutia. Each time we’re undergoing hardship we can grow from it.
8. The Sith, being opposed to all the light side/Jedi values, do not encourage selfless love, compassion, charity, attachment, passivity, balance, and peace. These things really weaken one and make one taken advantage of or helping others at the expense of one’s interests without gaining anything in return, not even inspiring change in the behaviour or worldview of the beneficiary. The idea of self-interest is essentially about realizing one’s own values or interests the can best lead to lasting fulfilment, whereas oppression is justified through peace which is a violation of our ethics to seek happiness and freedom.
9. Give yourself over to the belief that you will not calculate to live according to materialistic doctrine, don’t accept what they call ‘comfortable and complacent lifestyle’ and act in such a way that you will not be tempted to return to it. The darwinian struggle to overcome ones enemies, ensure survival and accomplish ones cause of freeing oneself from self-limitation and hindrance, and creating order.

11. Actions in service to the dark side give you the benefits of the force.

The light side is peace, pacifism, dispassion, selflessness, sacrifice and service and can be the expense of oneself.
12. The power of the dark side is best wielded from the shadows, the shadows is where you can gain power without sacrificing ones complete agenda, plan, mission or purpose and ones sinister goals (sovereign goals). The best way to maintain a secret from an enemy, is not to tell it to a friend. Don’t tell your full plan to anyone, give pieces to those who have perform their role well, have expertise or power, thus have a goal or purpose to serve.
13. Being in control of one’s actions or goals is willpower. This requires difficulty or challenge in order to gain wisdom over our own reactions, so that we aren’t triggered by events or experiences and instead head off those reactions and act reasonably when others expect you to act predictably.
14. The ultimate goal of the Sith is to evolve beyond all limitations, including whatever limits nature and nurture might have imposed upon the individual Sith lord. We want to eliminate all anguish or pain from ourselves, so to that end, we remove self-limitation or hindrance.

And without self control and a liberated will, one can never achieve control over the reality of their microcosm, let alone the macrocosm.
15. The Sith teach that we must harness our emotions and to that end we must learn to not restrain our emotions. We must not be ignorant of our emotions and abilities. We must reach inside and grip those emotions tightly when they burn too brightly, so that we don’t burn out.
16. We wish to realize order through strength. Order is the fundamentals of society that are greater than the sum of their elements, that is survival, growth, competition, prosperity, creativity and freedom.
17. The Sith want what is best in us, whats best in us is the Sith code; strength, power, and victory, which allows us to achieve anything and become successful.

21. Triumph over one’s struggles gains one strength. Struggle is grappling with our inner pain, turmoil or contentment, struggle is also about growth, evolution and adaption.
22. Combativeness or conflict enhances strength and brotherhood. The rule of many is based on this. Where many people are asked to compete with one another, choose an opponent with similar characteristics. Triumph over one’s struggles gains one strength also.
23. We must continually restart the cycle of the Sith code by gaining new goals. If you find yourself lacking in a goal, learn your passions well. Its never too late to do so. Find five of your passions and focus most of your energy on the five goals that are based on them.
24. Your main ways of ascertaining what is true to you rather than what is useless or flawed is logic, reason, passion and experience. Learn to build knowledge into your wisdom based off your experiences.
25. A human resource is the most natural resource of all. Utilize manipulation and dark psychology which allows one to use human resources for ones interests, for attainment of our goals.
26. Sith indulge with restraint, in that indulgence while is desirable, pleasurable, and satisfying, indulging with restraint earns one a certain level of difficulty or challenge, and builds up self-control. Sith indulge with restraint and embrace their emotions, in any way shape or form, we accept the way we feel and don’t deny or neglect our emotions. Without restraint on our emotions leads to power and potential.
27. Sith engage in challenges to test ones strength and increase the mental, physical and spiritual growth.
28. Don’t settle for status any less deserving then what your aptitude, skills or abilities can prove.
29. Become the new lords, don’t settle for anything less than living in according to the Sith rules, tenets and ideology in a noble manner. Live a life of effort, do things with the intention for excellence, doing your duty when people shirk, mock or it’s frowned upon is still best.
30. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do.
31. There is no victory without a strong backbone or courage. All tenets, all excellence, all progress, all educational and all cultural benefits are based on first being able to face adversity, criticism, critique and to keep your cool and stay classy when you need to effectively communicate across your ideas, will, agenda or perspective.
32. Power without a foundation of great strength and responsibility is nothing but a compelling blunder, carries with it a measure of respect or influence but does not lead to real world status, victory, or other things. It’s very vulnerable to difficulty, tension, and indecision.
33. We must be able to deal with circumstances grounded in our knowledge, preparation, and in our spirit/potential. Potential is gained by determination and passion, and potential is trained by difficult or challenging work. Power is maximizing potential.
34. Cautious agreement will win allies. Make sure you have a reasonable degree of certainty you can accomplish it in a reasonable timeframe.
35. Casual complements go a long way. Even superficial ones.
36. Stand your ground.

The foundations of what it means to be a modern Sith are commitment, self-mastery, and self-deification. The ideal behind the self-mastery concept is complete control over yourself, your future, your emotions, your temper and well-being, gaining supreme control over our own body and mind, its personal responsibility, objectivity and being able to compel many people personally or politically. Commitment is your weapon or tool of achieving success where others give in. Self-deification is seeing your beauty or power, and putting yourself above all false religions, unworthy arbitrary authority, and false constructs, for example, social norms and social pressures.

Sith Advantages:

The Sith are most interested in absorbing and accumulating energy or vril. With the increase in energy your passion and power increases, as this is brought to you by the dark side focus and wisdom of the phenomena of the dark poles. Energy gained means you can gain greater understanding, knowledge and devotion.

Empire means understanding your darkness and spreading your shadow mind influence by compelling presence and infectious energy. A higher freedom is to liberate ourselves from self-limitation and hindrance.

Sith increase their knowledge and wisdom to be able to relinquish the chains of any of the masses or normies, to endear ourselves to others, increase potency to become the one who enacts his or her will, and set the agenda so as to be able to increase ones powers.

Those successful or great in the real world have indeed a clear singular-mindedness of purpose with one or two great goals that address Different areas of our lives with similar intensity and satisfaction. professional goal or private goal, political goal or personal goal, mentally challenging goal or physical goal, a creative goal or destructive goal. Either one of these will result in the creation of something that eclipses contemporaries, or reduces the obstacles of your foes to rubble, and brings your awareness back to yourself, your rise, not about what others are doing. This is meant for you, your reality and your power belong to you, now act like it.

Many Sith view reputation with high value. However, being able to remove the power of opinion others have over you and how it affects you is a strength. Removing their power is a power in itself. Focus on what you can control, like opinion, desire, aversion, and pursuits, in a phrase, whatever are our own actions, and embrace or accept what you cannot control, like property, infirmities, status/reputation, disease, and death, whatever are not our actions. (Edwin Ferreira, The Way of the Sith)

The dark side means freedom. Freedom gained through victory can mean freedom for all. By attaining freedom, you are set free by the very force since it breaks all social conditioning from you by gnosis or wisdom because you face your darkness, you are the wielding the force.

Ideology: The Thirty-six Sith Rules

Ideology: The Thirty-six Sith Rules

Tenets are the principles or rules about nature that allows one to confront or face oneself or others, in a way that will help one understand knowledge, knowledge of oneself or others, physical or metaphysical. To see what awesome power you have within yourself as a being that is one its way to garnering a whole and healthy mind. It’s meant to help keep track of what is your advancement through the paths of Sithism, from inner destruction, transformation, and self-mastery. Tenets or precepts is basically the path of power that Sith follow.

Sith Ideology is based upon gaining the most out of an individual, so that they train their minds to become like a weapon of their will and perspective. Being able to wield it like a sword to enact change, adaption, or advancement in the world at large, its consistent with struggle, which is fundamentally struggle is also about growth, evolution, and adaption. To grow with the power, wisdom, knowledge or illumination, to evolve with the times and be able to use values like conflict so as to get stronger, overcome adversity or face risks, and to adapt which is to be able to get in touch with your true nature, become true to yourself, and work to overcome circumstance by claiming victories, as well as to put yourself and your will and agenda in advantageous position compared to all other wills vying for domination in this Darwinian struggle.

The way you decide to think about yourself and affects and helps you reflect on your true hunger for power (thanks to Lady Kurai Kage for the suggestion). We work on ourselves to drop the false pretences of living a lie, living according to base survival rather than trying to reveal and integrate with our true nature, a powerful inner black flame, we wish to remake ourselves and understand and awaken our true personality. The ideology will help us in achieving this confronting and integrating of the true self or shadow self as we call it in the ways of Sithism. There is no way back once you decide to take a myriad of paths through Sith ideology, once you confront yourself your old self may fall away in the black flame, replaced with something more akin to powerful, sovereign, and complete individual.

We will look at these different aspects of Sith ideology, the training, rules or maxims and what it takes to become a higher man/woman. As Sith Shadows, we acknowledge we are always evolving and as our perception changes our world changes. All people will hopefully learn how to tap into themselves and the natural cycle of evolution through different means to empower themselves on a deeper level. This path isn’t a one all be all path. You must use what will grant you a healthier or practical application of what will work for you. It’s the way of the Endarkened for the Sith.

Tenets and higher ideology are both about natural state of empowerment that is imbued in most if not all human beings, these truths govern our reasoning and behaviour. Human beings have a philosophy derived from their desire to own and improve their body, mind, spirit, and will, perfect and raise themselves up to gain personal freedom. Ultimately this is about self mastery for power, continual development, and inner transformation for inner strength and power.

1. A Sith is adept at internal power and must be well versed in power philosophy, psychology, occult arts, politics, warrior philosophy, myths, and mass psychology. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do. Power is what leads to freedom or prestige.
2. The strong rule with iron wills and the weak should be submitting or subject to the will of the strong and willingly follow their authority. Tyranny is mistreatment like depriving people of individual choice to follow a path that is their own. Voluntary path is allowing good choices that elevate us (self-development, growth and transformation), and the personal freedom that liberates us from self-limitation and hindrance. The deliberately chosen path frees us.
3. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do. Power is the ability to do things better then ever before, so do not give up on your dreams or vision of a better world. Your reality, once a forceful will is cultivated by a superior discipline or guidance, and either can clear away the destructive, rash, or ineffectual concepts that clutters the rational mind during our most productive years. Either discipline or guidance can remove the dual purposes that we might be conflicted between, sapping out inner energy or desire to take action in the here and now for our self-satisfaction or to feel and be as powerful as those few in the real world we actually admire.
4. Never deny your passion and your power. Passion is what drives you or fuels you on to achieve things, its what elevates you day to day and what makes you feel good. Power is what people find naturally compelling and be your subordinates, be subject to your will and recognize your legitimacy as an authority. Hunger or passion will get you find the answer you require. What’s the way to gain status? It’s through actions of merit, be it aptitude or skill.
5. Anything that is perfect or great can be achieved through great passion, struggle or sacrifice. The struggle for dominance is the struggle for perfection.
6. Will and perception is a prerequisite to your power, you cannot start to gain power unless you have a firm basis in that of will and sithy attitude (sovereign wills, discipline and mental training).
7. What does not kill us makes us stronger. Trials, tribulations, desires and experiences makes us a little stronger every time we try to overcome such impositions, difficult circumstances, discomfort and minutia. Each time we’re undergoing hardship we can grow from it.
8. The Sith, being opposed to all the light side/Jedi values, do not encourage selfless love, compassion, charity, attachment, passivity, balance, and peace. These things really weaken one and make one taken advantage of or helping others at the expense of one’s interests without gaining anything in return, not even inspiring change in the behaviour or worldview of the beneficiary. The idea of self-interest is essentially about realizing one’s own values or interests the can best lead to lasting fulfilment, whereas oppression is justified through peace which is a violation of our ethics to seek happiness and freedom.
9. Give yourself over to the belief that you will not calculate to live according to materialistic doctrine, don’t accept what they call ‘comfortable and complacent lifestyle’ and act in such a way that you will not be tempted to return to it. The darwinian struggle to overcome ones enemies, ensure survival and accomplish ones cause of freeing oneself from self-limitation and hindrance, and creating order. Idealism is the belief that ideas rule the world, rather then material needs. Leaders arise because of invoking a particular spirit, character and politics.
10. Thought and action should be geared towards both seeing the good in that which people call “bad” or “negative”, and choose action over abstraction. An aspiring Sith Lord is encouraged to see the negative emotions or instincts he or she sees in themselves as a potential source of power.
11. Actions in service to the dark side give you the benefits of the force. That will unlock understanding, knowledge and devotion, and the dark side is where your most potent latent power resides at. The light side is peace, pacifism, dispassion, selflessness, sacrifice and service and can be the expense of oneself.
12. The power of the dark side is best wielded from the shadows, the shadows is where you can gain power without sacrificing ones complete agenda, plan, mission or purpose and ones sinister goals (sovereign goals). The best way to maintain a secret from an enemy, is not to tell it to a friend. Don’t tell your full plan to anyone, give pieces to those who have perform their role well, have expertise or power, thus have a goal or purpose to serve.
13. Being in control of one’s actions or goals is willpower. This requires difficulty or challenge in order to gain wisdom over our own reactions, so that we aren’t triggered by events or experiences and instead head off those reactions and act reasonably when others expect you to act predictably.
14. The ultimate goal of the Sith is to evolve beyond all limitations, including whatever limits nature and nurture might have imposed upon the individual Sith lord. We want to eliminate all anguish or pain from ourselves, so to that end, we remove self-limitation or hindrance. Without knowing the self, one can’t control the darkness of the self through discipline. And without self control and a liberated will, one can never achieve control over the reality of their microcosm, let alone the macrocosm.
15. The Sith teach that we must harness our emotions and to that end we must learn to not restrain our emotions. We must not be ignorant of our emotions and abilities. We must reach inside and grip those emotions tightly when they burn too brightly, so that we don’t burn out.
16. We wish to realize order through strength. Order is the fundamentals of society that are greater than the sum of their elements, that is survival, growth, competition, prosperity, creativity and freedom.
17. The Sith want what is best in us, whats best in us is the Sith code; strength, power, and victory, which allows us to achieve anything and become successful.
18. Arbitrary authority are meant to make us miserable and in despair, like arbitrary fiat. We wish to set ourselves free from the shackles of lightside’s arbitrary authority that impose peace, violate our free will and regulate anti-conflict.
19. The Sith apprentice is expected to be obedient to their master and to follow their orders without question.
20. You shall place yourself above the weak. You are above those who are merely content with their lot in life, it’s at these moments you must leave people behind unless you wish to be held from your goals.
21. Triumph over one’s struggles gains one strength. Struggle is grappling with our inner pain, turmoil or contentment, struggle is also about growth, evolution and adaption.
22. Combativeness or conflict enhances strength and brotherhood. The rule of many is based on this. Where many people are asked to compete with one another, choose an opponent with similar characteristics. Triumph over one’s struggles gains one strength also.
23. We must continually restart the cycle of the Sith code by gaining new goals. If you find yourself lacking in a goal, learn your passions well. Its never too late to do so. Find five of your passions and focus most of your energy on the five goals that are based on them.
24. Your main ways of ascertaining what is true to you rather than what is useless or flawed is logic, reason, passion and experience. Learn to build knowledge into your wisdom based off your experiences.
25. A human resource is the most natural resource of all. Utilize manipulation and dark psychology which allows one to use human resources for ones interests, for attainment of our goals.
26. Sith indulge with restraint, in that indulgence while is desirable, pleasurable, and satisfying, indulging with restraint earns one a certain level of difficulty or challenge, and builds up self-control. Sith indulge with restraint and embrace their emotions, in any way shape or form, we accept the way we feel and don’t deny or neglect our emotions.

30. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do.
31. There is no victory without a strong backbone or courage. All tenets, all excellence, all progress, all educational and all cultural benefits are based on first being able to face adversity, criticism, critique and to keep your cool and stay classy when you need to effectively communicate across your ideas, will, agenda or perspective.

29. Become the new lords, don’t settle for anything less than living in according to the Sith rules, tenets and ideology in a noble manner. Live a life of effort, do things with the intention for excellence, doing your duty when people shirk, mock or it’s frowned upon is still best.
30. Power is being the one that defines the best of what we do.
31. There is no victory without a strong backbone or courage. All tenets, all excellence, all progress, all educational and all cultural benefits are based on first being able to face adversity, criticism, critique and to keep your cool and stay classy when you need to effectively communicate across your ideas, will, agenda or perspective.
32. Power without a foundation of great strength and responsibility is nothing but a compelling blunder, carries with it a measure of respect or influence but does not lead to real world status, victory, or other things. It’s very vulnerable to difficulty, tension, and indecision.
33. We must be able to deal with circumstances grounded in our knowledge, preparation, and in our spirit/potential. Potential is gained by determination and passion, and potential is trained by difficult or challenging work. Power is maximizing potential.
34. Cautious agreement will win allies. Make sure you have a reasonable degree of certainty you can accomplish it in a reasonable timeframe.
35. Casual complements go a long way. Even superficial ones.
36. Stand your ground.

The foundations of what it means to be a modern Sith are commitment, self-mastery, and self-deification. The ideal behind the self-mastery concept is complete control over yourself, your future, your emotions, your temper and well-being, gaining supreme control over our own body and mind, its personal responsibility, objectivity and being able to compel many people personally or politically. Commitment is your weapon or tool of achieving success where others give in. Self-deification is seeing your beauty or power, and putting yourself above all false religions, unworthy arbitrary authority, and false constructs, for example, social norms and social pressures.

Sith Advantages:

The Sith are most interested in absorbing and accumulating energy or vril. With the increase in energy your passion and power increases, as this is brought to you by the dark side focus and wisdom of the phenomena of the dark poles. Energy gained means you can gain greater understanding, knowledge and devotion.

Empire means understanding your darkness and spreading your shadow mind influence through seduction and persuasion.

Sith increase their knowledge and wisdom to be able to relinquish the chains of any of the masses or normies, to endear ourselves to others, increase potency to become the one who enacts his or her will, and set the agenda so as to be able to increase ones powers.

The dark side means freedom. Freedom gained through victory can mean freedom for all. By attaining freedom, you are set free by the very force since it breaks all social conditioning from you by gnosis or wisdom because you face your darkness, you are the wielding the force. (Edwin Ferreira, The Way of the Sith)

Many Sith view reputation with high value. However, being able to remove the power of opinion others have over you and how it affects you is a strength. Removing their power is a power in itself. Focus on what you can control, like opinion, desire, aversion, and pursuits, in a phrase, whatever are our own actions, and embrace or accept what you cannot control, like property, infirmities, status/reputation, disease, and death, whatever are not our actions. (Edwin Ferreira, The Way of the Sith)

This chapter is in my book The Way of the Sith, available now on Xlibris, Barnes and Noble, Amazon and Kobo. But has been updated, revised and edited.
