Living Force

"All energy from the Living Force, from all things that have ever lived, feeds into the Cosmic Force, binding everything and communicating to us through the midi-chlorians. Because of this, I can speak to you now."

- The spirit of Qui-Gon Jinn, communing with Yoda

The Living Force was an aspect of the Force. It was fed from the energy of living things and was distinct from the Cosmic Force. It made possible the phenomenon of Force spirits.

Qui-Gon Jinn stressed the importance of the Living Force to his Padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and was considered a student of it.
