- In Star Wars, George Lucas created the concept of the Force to speak about spirituality and faith. Start your free trial at Squarespace and use this link to get 10% off your first purchase: www.squarespace.com/ScreenPrism / Support ScreenPrism on Patreon: www.patreon.com/user?u=7792695
As Star Wars: The Last Jedi approaches, we look back at what Wise Master Yoda taught us and Luke Skywalker about how to live close to the force: listen to the Force speaking within us, practice emptiness, do what we think is impossible, know everything is connected, respect nature, stay in the now, and never underestimate the small in stature.

This is more inspirational and deep then any ted talk I've ever seen.
Haha thanks!!
The great thing about this is it makes me think more, that is what makes it good
Than
I just noticed, on second viewing, "WORKS CITED & CONSULTED" at the end, and I respect that so much. Just wanted to say that.
anybody else think that Jesse Lee Peterson channels his inner Yoda
Great synthesis, just made me more motivated for my exams :) let's focus, stay in the now, value wisdom..
Do well on your exams and don't worry about the lunatic chanting something about conspiracy theories above, he probably talks to Yoda a lot in real life if you know what i mean.
By far one of the most beautiful and insightful videos I’ve seen in my life. So full of wisdom and truthfulness. Thank you SP
Great video isn't it, so insightful, hope lots of people see it
One of the most underrated channels on UA-cam in my opinion.
Edit: but then again I want this channel to remain as my personal golden nugget!
Abyssinia Empire Totally!
"The Force is with me, and I am with the Force;
and I fear nothing, for all is as the Force wills it"
I get emotional every time I hear that...
"Thy will be done"
Even though I've gotten used to the profoundly high quality content, and delivery of your videos, I was still taken aback by how deeply this video essay affected me. It was inspirational, and provoking of reflection and wonder to a degree that is still with me, and has effectively changed something in me. Thank you. I'm not sure you can fully appreciate just how much your videos affect me, and I'm sure many others, simply because, I wouldn't know how to express it. You re-interpret common, and sometimes seemingly vapid and obvious themes in pop-culture in such a way that is shocking by how moving they truly are. Once again, thank you. I look forward to your coming works.
wow, this analysis was beautifully executed and well-written.
I'll be honest, I teared up a little
Nothing wrong with that.
Same
Me too😭
thats the 'force' running through your body and chakras
I cried too
Found this page accidentally about a month ago and holy shit so I fuckin LOVE this page.... so well done, ya got me guys.
Bravo
Hey Martin, thank you! We appreciate the support
"If you honor what they fight for, yes!" Damn thats an under rated quote.
Bravo. This helps me with my faith. This has given me much to reflect.
Yoda's voice: Join a science fiction religion I should mmmmh
Vicente Ortega Rubilar better than the child fantasy religion that is Christianity
yes that logic makes so much sense..#sarcasm
@@petercarioscia9189 Christianity is poison.
I really feel bad, because there are people who might say this and actually believe, and do this, and there might be those who, might think they are being clever, and their intents at sarcasm end up with a rant by me. Either way, a metaphor for religion does not mean you should actually attempt to believe in "the force." As a person grounded in reality, I understand and enjoy science fiction for what it is: make believe. IF you want to enjoy, and acknowledge, the existence of a deity, God has been here all along, before the creation of the Universe(s (maybe)). The point is to see there are parallels in the wise teachings of those attempt to cultivate their spirituality, and inner connection to God.
Finally, a good video about the FOrce. Thank you.
I love these analysis videos so much! I just love delving deep into my favorite stories and finding all of the themes and symbolism that is hidden in plain sight, it really takes me back to my English Literature class in high school and reminds me why I love that subject. This analysis makes me appreciate Star Wars even more than I did before! Thank you for yet another great analysis!
Thank you very much!
This is so inspirational. I'm not religious but I am spiritual and these are great lessons to keep in mind.
Just two words.....Amazing Video
Thank you!
ScreenPrism Keep up the good work and...may the Force be with you!
The fact that you’re able to dig so deep into the material and explain so much in such a short amount of time, is staggering! Why isn’t this video trending? Seriously, thanks for making this I really enjoyed it!!!
Great video. Someone once joked that if Yoda had to support an international language, it would be Esperanto. A simple yet effective language meant to unite everyone through a second language. Also they are both associated with green.
I am a Jediist. I am learning Esperanto. My second favorite color is Green.
Well, What do you know? 🙂☺️😊
PEACE❤️
I think it’d be interesting if you made a video analyzing Obi-Wan or even how him and Maul are connected through the tragedies in their life
This video is EXACTLY what I need, I can't thank you enough for this! Thank you from the bottom of my heart❤
Fascinating video, giving a sense of spirituality, belief, nature, etc. is truly a unique thing. Understanding the greater meanings within living beings and the spiritual plane's connection to the physical one and all that exists is truly something to behold. You all are amazing at this.
UnknownOne I literally just thought the same thing. I learn so much from the video.
Thank you so much! That means a lot
Aliyah Rich It's intriguing.
ScreenPrism You're most welcome.
chris pearson The nature of humanity is complicated.
Watching this made me more emotional than I thought it would. Beautifully done. Thank you very much for this video!
The writers of this channel are awesome and you guys cover a lot of my favorite movies, show and characters.
I've seen only two of your videos so far - "Why love never works in Star Wars" being the other - and I am tremendously impressed. You have a new subscriber!
Very well done, I like you guys a lot, because I can tell you take your time on this. Very well put to together
This had me tearing up a little. Terms like fantastic and awesome are bandied about with little thought, so now these are but diluted words. Your work is truly fantastic and awesome. I had goosebumps throughout, but especially the part about how we are trained to see unlikelihood.
Thank you for this piece of art, because that's what it is to me. I will watch the movies again through a completely new perspective.
This definitely has to be my favorite video essay out of all of them. I saw the first trilogy of Star Wars films for the first time last year But now I feel like I need to rewatch them after seeing this.
Truly insightful and enjoyable to watch while thinking of starting to watch the saga again but with a open mind and soul. Thank you. Keep the great work and inspiring videos.
I really, really loved this video. Thank you!!!
Kind of life long wish to have it so I can promote those same lessons I took out of the film but would never be able to express as well you have.
Awesome stuff very much on Target with walk of life thanks May the Force be with you Always
I really love this video. It's a great reminder to stay focused on what is important.
This is why I am willing to suspend intense criticism of Rey’s force use in the first film before seeing ore of her character arc/what foundations she has so far that signals her ability to just do. She is a survivalist. She has not had the luxury to doubt. She has had to do and not try because she may otherwise die. Being left in Jakku was basically a great training ground for becoming someone who acts on faith, faith in her circumstances one day changing and faith in her self to do the near impossible each day (salvage parts on a planet highly picked over), because that is all she had.
M. Roberts finally, someone said it
M. Roberts Good 💭 *analysis .
As have *Felt the Force., (few⌚)., mi¥ be 📹^my channel. Good 4 🎭trivia. 🎄👋
Dont use this video to justified a bad written character
I live life by a set of certain principles, ive taut my kids by being good strait forward , and doing the right thing is giving honor and respect to me and those that came b4, the force is with us and I respect it
thank you for making these
This is so important. Thank you for making this video. The world is a better place and life is easier for some of us thanks to what you made us see here. Thanks.
Love it. You should do a video on how the dark and light are needed to balance the force and how Darth Vader was needed to bring this balance.
This may be the best video I've seen on this channel. Good job ladies, well done... 👍👍 May the force be with you... 😁
I absolutely agree with the universal way of the existing force. The Jedi way is a perfect description of this existence. Thanks for sharing this knowledge and inspiration. May the force be with you always.
we are able to understand what the force is, thanks to the amazing Johns Williams music behind Yoda´s words
gosh this changes everything thank you
Wonderfully done and amazingly insightful!
Thank you for this, subscribed.
This is a fascinating video, watching it now after the release of the Last Jedi it's amazing how relevant these points are for explaining a lot of the decisions of Luke and Rey's powers.
every one of your videos should be in the YT trending tab --- good stuff!
Are you guys alchemists? 'Cause you turn your videos into gold!
I'd love some videos on Fullmetal Alchemist, btw
Great video on Star Wars!
Thanks Stefan!
This is one of the best channels on UA-cam! Excellent video! Much appreciated!
Thank you very much!
But the Jedi way of cutting yourself off from family, like taking the young ones away from the love of their mothers, is sometimes what leads them to the dark side. If you empty yourself of one emotion something will rush to fill the void.
You underestimate my power
@Shayan I agree with everything, except for the part about kidnapping. While a few force sensitives were kidnapped, I believe that Jedi should make a choice to join, not just a choice to stay. I understand the risk of attachment, but Jedi have an attachment to each other, the bond between master and apprentice is especially strong. The Jedi of the prequel era seemed more afraid of attachment than in control of attachment.
Awesome Video
This channel is insanely amazing!!
as a kid I never thought about star wars' themes that deeply but as an adult the light/dark metaphor is more relevant than I realized. the flaw in the jedi's way was repressing the dark within them, instructing not to feel, evoke, or process any negative emotions, which eventually led to anakin's and therefore their downfall.
This was amazing
May the force be with you screenprism
Great analysis! This is why I love star wars
Beautifully done!
Amazing video... wow I'm gonna study this opening of my mind
Thank you so much for the video its great!
Love this! Thank you
Wow best explanation of the force on UA-cam 👍
Your video is beautiful. Made a difference here. Thank you.
Amazing, the force is strong with this video.
The insight ScreenPrism has into the human condition is and remarkable and astounding.
Honestly I think like a jedi. I always look for the calmness in myself and connect to the rest of the world. Knowing that we are all one being but live and act as if we are decided. But I still have much to learn. I still have much to know and must be willing connect and learn how to hear the force.
Ah, the world would be a much better place with people living as Jedis. I'm doing my best to live by these principles. Although the Jedi are 'fictional', they are the pinnacles of goodness, strength etc. Such powerful characters. Thanks for the video, awesome stuff!
Literally my favorite video on youtube..
Your voice is calming
Surprisingly good and accurate video on a subject, on which is hard to be accurate about
But if I remember well, this is not the first time I have to make this comment about a video from this channel
Thank you for the videos you make :-)
"Like or Like not..
..There is no dislike."
To the team behind this video.. your work has the potential to change lives.
If that is not magical, I don't know what is.
May The Force be with You, ScreenPrism.
Best life advice ever! 😯
Beautiful summation. Excellent
Thanks!
Great video very deep and detailed..👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💯
I meditate before during and after listening to this.
Very nice summary...
Very impresive !
What a great piece. Great research, writing, and editing. Well done.
Thanks!
Best explanation of jediism yet
We must remember that, for all the glorification, Star Wars has a simplistic logic in the sense it is binary. It makes little use of brainpower to comprehend and uses faith, a zealous product of emotion, to warn against raging emotion. Truth is there is a non-binary spectrum of aspects that match, coordinate, clash, and repel. Binary logic is how we oppress our emotions rather than use them or let them override our brainpower entirely. The force continues to reinforce primitive notions. I find SW is showing how we hold onto to such things. All supernatural things are really natural things if we let go of binary mystification. How many times does one imply the supernatural is the explanation for something by saying some things can't be explained. This is irony to which many are arrogantly clueless as a result of the sort of binary logic like the force. If only binary logic could not apply good and evil to everything then we might understand the static and dynamic better, at least. The force shows that no matter how tech we get the more primitive we might stay. Like the humans in Star Trek 5 who spoke of the center of the galaxy as a literal Eden.
Lost Age Comics I agree, just want to throw out that 'grey' jedi are an interesting fit relating to this topic and if youd see them as the non binary in the SW universe.
It is meant to be a simple, universal story. Not the most "literal" necessarily, even if lessons can loosely be drawn from it.
Red Boy I was just springboarding.
Lost Age Comics An interesting 📝@ 💭that clouds the more galactic theology. Q? Tho' ..,
Have yoU actually.., *Felt the Force ? 🎶
➖👈=👉➖
I really love the sentence: we dont need to fear anything that can come to us, not even death. because the most important thing wouldn't die.
I think its true. As the song in Coco said: Our love for each other will live on forever.
It is scary how true this is. I call it the universe, it does guide you if you listen. It is not always easy but it is always the right choice but it is difficult to hear. You do not need to give up possessions thankfully. It will guide you to all that you seek.
Very thoughtful
If this video was made a long time ago, I would've had mind blown by it.
Great video
I like your videos very much, do something about the last jedi, in particular about Rose . Thanks!
Pls. do " Frozen".. About the different social difficulties the characters are coping.
Incredible.
Your promotion at the end is also thoughful and thematically relevant to the video. Kudos!
Thank you we do our best! :)
i really like this video🙂
I love this video. Watching this video was a religious experience for me. Yoda is my favorite character in all of Star Wars and I was very pleased to see you condense everything that he talked about and taught into one, I don't want to call it informational because that would downplay it depth, video. It's interesting how you talk about how Yoda is small and unassuming and Luke doesn't recognize him as the Jedi Master. I learned a little while ago the name Yoda is the Sanskrit word for warrior. So when Luke says I'm looking for a great warrior, and Yoda says wars do not make one great, Luke is actually saying I'm looking for Yoda because Yoda means warrior.
Thanks
wonderful
Wow...just wow a phenomenal video! Y’all never disappoint!!🙌🏽 I knew that there was some spiritual connection between the force and God but I didn’t realize how deep it was. I didn’t know that George sought his inspiration from from God, spirituality, and religions. Thank you for doing this, this is a real encouragement to keep moving forward. I guess that’s why we all love these movies😏☺️ great job as always keep up the good work. #maytheforcebewithyou🖤
GOD, I LOVE YOUR VOICE.
great!
It's about Balancing
There's never been a channel I've been more happy to see start gaining revenue through advertising. Oftentimes it seems like a hindrance to the quality of the content, but for screenprism, the content comes first. Here's hoping screenprism continues its amazing work and gains the audience and viewership it deserves
Thank you!
Bravo!
In Star Wars dark and light represent the force. We see the Jedi were composed of both elements. To enter into light, a place of beginning first must be realized. (From the darkness of the void, light emanated). How the Jedi uses this force, is solely dependent on each Jedi, and what each Jedi perceive as truth.

Just wow
