The Symboliads of Jukreshna

The Symboliads of Jukreshna are precepts, poetry, manuals and star maps collected in a single volume, the scripture of the Jukre Star Sailors. As of 17 ABY, Hagron-tides-of-green was engaged in translating the Symboliads into Basic. Some of his favourite sayings were either direct quotations or paraphrases.

"You are responsible for the things you can control."

"Let not a day pass without music."

"For she is as the ghost of a leaf. Long years of elemental fury sap her joy and her life, and yet she remains, brittle and strong at once.  She is a memory of what once was, and a model for what may become.  What will become is not of her propagation.  She has tried to shelter it from the rain, and it passes through her; she is powerless, and yet stands firm against every gale.  She did not choose to be what she is, but in her ruin there is beauty still.  For she is as the ghost of a leaf."

"There is a true path, but each must find it alone."

"A student is a seed on the water."

"Let your grief refine you, educate you, and spur you on towards what must be done."

"I hold no power. The changes I work are subtle.  I am a gardener.  I do not need recognition."

"The Jedi and the Sith desire to be soloists, conductors or composers. But there are already enough soloists and the Music comes together as it will.  Too often we see these desires put the harmonies out of balance."

"I do not make things happen. The universe is deserving of respect.  There is no need to demand its obedience with the wave of a hand."

"Perhaps in my death I can add a high note to the symphony."
