With this entry, The Acolyte digs deep into the spiritual roots of The Force

Just because you can grab an audience with a name like Star Wars doesn’t mean you can keep their attention. With its third episode, The Acolyte introduces a theme so big and so important—religion—that if the show doesn’t take it seriously in the coming episodes, it may lose mine. Episode 3 spends most of its time giving us the backstory of Brendok, the homeworld of twin sisters Mae and Osha . Here, we get to see a society of women—the equivalent of witches—who are experts on the Force.

A man named John Chang was well known to create different kinesis effects, such as burning paper by hovering his hand over it . It doesn’t matter if you train Nei Kung , it doesn’t matter if you believe in “chi” . If you’re invested in Star Wars, you’re invested in a narrative universe that references real-world philosophies and modalities, especially Eastern ones, that are senior to and related to many ideas in Western fables, fairy tales and religious parables.
