- THE FORCE
- "It surrounds us, binds us, life creates it, makes it grow."
- -Yoda tesb
- I would have to say that the force seems to be something akin to a bubble
- that fills in the gaps between living material. The manipulations that Jedi
- can do with it are something like making waves in it with their mind. They
- can then cause objects to ride the waves and move any which way possible.
- Certainly the more training and understanding a Jedi has of it, the more
- precise and intricate movements can be done to the objects. But there is no
- limit to the movements that can be done. This quote also leads me to theorize
- why Yoda decided to live on the Dagobah planet. Certainly, one couldn't find
- a place more full of animal and plant life to generate force energy for Yoda.
