Path of the Jedi Episode #3: YOUR FOCUS DETERMINES YOUR REALITY
It’s hard to imagine that the Star Wars franchise would tackle a theme as heady as the nature of reality, but Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn does just that. Almost in passing, in a quick scene in Star Wars: a Phantom Menace Qui-Gon tells young Anakin, “Remember, Anakin. Your focus determines your reality.”
Qui-Gon was a less than conventional Jedi master. He didn’t always abide by the rigidity of the Jedi Council and in fact rejected a seat in the Council when it was offered him. So, hearing him tell a very young and very inexperienced Anakin that one’s focus determines one’s reality should come as no surprise.
