What if Anakin Could See Past Jedi like Aang in Avatar? Let’s explore the depths of it in the video.

Anakin watches Ahsoka depart the Jedi Temple for the last time, his heart sinking as she disappears from view. Although Ahsoka made it sound like he should have been proud, all he can feel is sadness and disappointment. Part of him knows that it is the Jedi Council’s fault, but another feels more like his failure to defend her.

All these thoughts run through his mind as he heads back to his quarters and lies there alone. The longer he remains, the more questions arise. What will he do now? Should he take another apprentice? And how can he truly let go of those he loves?

Eventually, he decides to sit up and take a few breaths. It helps and he continues. Anakin’s never been big on meditating, but after everything that’s happened, he continues with breathing exercises. He doesn’t know how long he stays there but feels a warm presence brush up against him.

QuiGon: Anakin.

His eyes shoot open and stumbles back as he sees the old Jedi Master standing before him. He looks just like how Anakin remembered, with long hair, a strong body, and a kind smile. But he is now seethrough.

Anakin: Wwhat! What is the meaning of this?

QuiGon: You’ve grown since I last saw you, in more ways than one. I was wondering if you would ever discover this power.

Anakin: Power! What kind of trick is this?

QuiGon: No tricks, I promise. This is the power of the Living Force, something only the greatest Forceusers can harness.

Anakin: I’ve never heard of any Jedi who can do this.

QuiGon: No, I wouldn’t expect you to, my boy. This is a power long forgotten by the Jedi, but one that remains as potent. Life is an illusion, Anakin. And so is death. Do not think of it as losing someone, simply another part of it. The Jedi tell you that those who die return to the Force?

Anakin: They do.

QuiGon: And from the Force they remain, they're part of the galaxy. But those who understand the ways of the Living Force can reach out to them and ask for their wisdom.

Anakin: I don’t understand.

QuiGon: I don’t expect you to. It took me decades of study to truly realize my abilities. I can only stay here for a brief time. But if you wish to learn, travel to Dagobah.

Suddenly, QuiGon begins to levitate as his form begins to dissipate. He breaks apart into a thousand particles and leaves Anakin alone to ponder those words.

At first, Anakin wonders whether he’s imagined all of that. He goes about his days normally, trying to forget what happened. But there is a strangletingling feeling at the back of his mind. As if a doorway in his head was just unlocked and opened before him.

It leaves Anakin with a strange sense of calm, but also a new hunger for this knowledge. The Jedi Temple now appears smaller and more confused than ever while Dagobah calls to him more and more until finally, Anakin announces he wishes to take a leave of absence.

Although unprecedented, the Council is sympathetic to Anakin after the loss of his apprentice. With their permission, Anakin hops onto his starfighter and flies off to the Dagobah system.

When Anakin arrives, he finds no sign of life, just a vast expanse of swamplands. Instead of exploring, Anakin feels himself pulled towards it. All around him, he hears voices calling to him and welcoming him. He takes this as a positive sign and decides to sit down and begin meditating.

Soon, he feels a familiar warm feeling.

QuiGon: Weclome, Anakin. I was worried you wouldn’t arrive.

Anakin: I couldn't stay away after everything you told me. Now, why did you bring me here? What makes this place so important to training?

QuiGon: It’s what you see around you, my boy. I’m sure the Jedi have told you that everything you see here is part of the Force. But that is not just a saying. The Force ties all beings together and nothing can separate that, even death. To learn about this power, you must go where the Force is strong. Everything you see here is just one swamp, one organism. Like the entire galaxy. Listen closely not with your senses, but with the Force and you will find the branches that link us to the Force. Now are you ready?

Anakin nods his head and QuiGon smiles. He suddenly extends his hand out and from the bog behind them, a box slowly emerges from the ground and drops to Anakin’s lap.

Inside, Anakin finds the Stranger’s helmet. QuiGon orders Anakin to put it on and once he does, the Jedi feels all his senses disappear as he is left in total darkness. For a moment, Anakin panics but QuiGon tells him to take a deep breath.

When Anakin calms down, the former Jedi Master begins instructing him. This training is nothing like Anakin’s ever experienced. Without his senses, all Anakin has is the Force to guide him. QuiGon sends him all across the swamp
