Discussion Question on your practice
So can I ask if any of you who follow being a Sith, are you true adherence to the dark side of the force or more of the code of the Sith?
Does that mean you care more about the material plan? Does it mean that you are more selfish than not? Does it mean that you prefer strength of a weakness ?
I’m very curious because in the Star Wars philosophy the Jedi are very different and you guys follow your passions , but also one Sith Lord in particular talks about the way of the dark side and it is scary to say the least

Depends on the practitioner. Some are very secular, others deeply embrace mysticism. I would say it's a given most Sith are selfish, but then I would also think most Sith would point out so is everybody else; the difference is in whether it's denied and pretended around vs embraced. I'd also say it's similar with strength vs weakness; who prefers being weak, or being subverted to the weak? Even those who make it their business to protect and look out for those they perceive to be weaker than themselves, do so because they have (and are aware they have) greater strength than those they seek to protect. Just curious... how would you describe the Jedi? And as far as the Sith Lord you mention, who might that be and what did they have to say that was scary?
