Meaning in Living … ( 05 / 25 / 2012 )
Frank Oz , co-creator and original voice of Yoda , turns 68 today ( Happy Birthday , Frank !) … And while the statement in the image below was not actually uttered by Yoda himself , I ’ m pretty sure that he would support its sentiment . Yes , the younger , CGI Yoda was indeed sometimes a bit overly aggressive , and yet as he aged ( and became Oz ’ s Muppet ), his understanding of The Way of Oneness obviously blossomed .
Just like the rest of us will at some point before we die , Yoda finally got it — he finally understood that we are all One , and that our lives only have real Purpose when we choose to act accordingly .
So , for your enlightenment , your inspiration & also your enJoyment , I offer the following Yoda wisdoms ( compiled with Purpose ahead of chronology ):
“ Powerful you have become , the dark side I sense in you … Grave danger you are in … Ohhhhh , great warrior . Wars not make one great … You must unlearn what you have learned … Fear is the path to the dark side . Fear leads to anger . Anger leads to hate . Hate leads to suffering … Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose … Your weapons , you will not need them … Do or do no ; there is no try . ” ~ Yoda
[ Yoda :] “ Size matters not .” [ Luke :] “ I can ’ t believe it . [ Yoda :] “ That is why you fail .”
