Peace is a Lie, there is only Passion.

Peace is stagnation. With peace, comes decay. One needs a goal to succeed, otherwise, one will stagnate and decay. This is especially true in the Sith Order, as one always needs to be improving their skills or strengthen their powerbase. This is all accomplished through the realization that passion is the drive which fuels us in our endeavours, whatever they may be.

Through Passion, I gain Strength.

As I said before, passion is the drive which fuels us. Through this passion, if properly applied and managed, we gain Strength, through beating our enemies or through other means. Passion is the way in which a Sith grows, which gives us opportunities for further progression. A prime example is Lord Kalkoran when I arrived here at house Horuset, he was an apprentice. Now, through properly tempering his strength with passion, he is now a Lord of the Sith and one of the most powerful Lords in the Horuset powerbase.

Through Strength, I gain Power.

Strength gives us opportunities to increase power, be it political influence or mastery of the Force. It gives us the power to act on our own, not to have to be goaded along by the apprentices or lords, like we have to be now. This also grants us the opportunity to build a powerbase of our own, if we desire to do so like lord Kalkoran has done.

Through Power, I gain Victory.

Unless victory is achieved by demonstrating that your power is superior, it is only an illusion. Take victory by defeating your enemies, pitting your powerbase against theirs, and to the victor go the spoils.

Through Victory, my Chains are Broken.

The true meaning of the line "…my chains are broken" was a subject of argument among many Sith. According to Yuthura Ban, the chains represented a being's restrictions; not just a Sith but any being in the universe. The restrictions could be those placed upon a being by someone else or restrictions that one placed upon oneself. The ultimate goal of any Sith was to free himself from such restrictions, but not in the simplistic meaning of just being able to do whatever he wanted.

The Force shall Free me.

The Force is our servant and our master. Our teacher and our companion. A weapon and a tool. Know it and you know the universe. Master it and you master the universe. Strive for perfection and the Force shall reward you.
