Cut off from the people a Jedi is of no use. 124. A lot of people don't realize that the world is just an illusion. We are actually in the midst of a great war, a pitched battle raging through every life. We are soldiers fighting for our own souls and the souls of our loved ones. Great demons and tempting sirens wage war upon our very happiness at every moment seeking to drag us down to that awful hell where they reside. 125.
