New Jedi Order
There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is not death, there is the Force.
Jedi are the guardians of peace in the galaxy.
Jedi use their powers to defense and to protect.
Jedi respect all life, in any form.
Jedi serve others rather than ruling over them, for the good of the galaxy.
Jedi seek to improve themselves through knowledge and training.
- The Jedi Code
The New Jedi Order was established eleven years after the Battle of Yavin at the base the Rebel Alliance used on that fateful day. A rebuilding of the Jedi from the shattered and destroyed Holy Order of the Jedi Knights, more widely known as the Jedi Order or Old Jedi Order, the New Jedi Order utilizes countless reforms to modernize the Jedi. Unlike its preceding order, the New Jedi may marry, have children, largely operate freely, take on more than one apprentice, and enter the Order as adults, among many other changes. The Jedi operate primarily out of the Jedi Praxeum, the former Rebel base in the Massassi Temple of Yavin IV which was granted to the New Jedi Order upon its foundation. The Praxeum has shown to be considered a vital strategic target of the enemies of the New Republic, leading to its protection by an orbiting fleet and the construction of a planetary shield on Yavin IV. Recently, the Jedi reclaimed the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, despite its war torn and shattered state, hoping to find understand and to build a public place which would remind the galaxy that the Jedi were indeed once again among the galaxy. A protective dome has been constructed over the ruins of the Jedi Temple, which is now known as the Jedi Headquarters; serving as an administrative building for relations with the New Republic and for housing Jedi who venture onto the galactic capital.
