Star Wars: The Acolyte: What is the Barash Vow?
The latest Star Wars series depicts a Jedi in a catatonic state of meditation, but why would he enter that agreement willingly?
The Star Wars universe's Jedi are a complicated bunch. They're a long-forgotten legend in the original trilogy, kept alive only by a couple of aging devotees and one new champion. The prequels depict their old ways, inadvertently revealing several bone-deep flaws that would result in their extinction. The Acolyte seeks to focus on those problematic aspects of the would-be heroes with a new perspective on a new era. In that quest, it depicts a Jedi Master who willingly submits himself to the mysterious Barash Vow.
