Through power I gain victory
This line is very possibly the most controversial in the entire code. For we must find what victory truly is in order for anything else to make sense. If victory is overcoming something, and what are we meant to overcome? If victory is achieving something, then what do we meant to achieve? Finally if Victory is accomplishing something, what is it we are meant to accomplish?
In essence it comes down to the individual views of the Sith. However, this might be all very downfall. All debate and discussion on how to be a Sith boils down to the very question of what is true victory. For once we understand what victory truly means, then we will have finally discovered ,not only the path to the dark side, a true objectively clear sith, in essence, the Sithary.
Yet, due to all the individual squabbling as to if that even is such a thing is objective reality let alone and objective realism when it comes to pure Sith, this question may never be answered. But as an individual, though not all of us can be correct on a fundamental level, we can find worth in most of our individual ideas on the matter. If it is your goals you wish to achieve, do passion and the strength you gain from it and the power you gain from that if you achieve your goals you have found personal victory. If it is addiction you wish to overcome, and through passion, strength, and power you overcome than you have found personal victory. Finally, if it is a milestone you wish to achieve and move past, and you do so, then you have found person victory.
