Sharing

The Sharing was an intense sharing of memories by Obi-Wan Kenobi brought on by the complete collapse of his mental blocks and shields. Said collapse was precipitated by Darth Sidious during the confrontation that revealed him to the Jedi Order and to the Chancellor.
===Causes===
Kenobi had been struggling with a mental block since Waking Dream. It held unknown memories, ones strong enough to slip through and give him reoccuring cycles of incapacitating nightmares.
Kenobi, who was still grieviously injured from his previous fight with a Hand of Sidious, confronted Palpatine to reveal himself as Sidious. Sidious revealed himself, but also called Kenobi Darth Venge, reopened Kenobi's wounds and ripped through his mind, destroying the mental block.
As a result of the destruction, Kenobi's shields were destroyed, the memories from the block were freed, and the energy that had been used to create the block and remained in it had to go somewhere. The control to keep thoughts, memories and energy to himself were more than Kenobi could exert under the circumstances, and with the authorization of Mace Windu, Kenobi released everything.
===Information revealed during the Sharing===
All of Kenobi's life from the point of divergence (Taro Tre) to his return to it was exposed, althought in a somewhat fragmented manner. The existence of Darth Venge was also fully revealed to all, including to Kenobi.

===Consequences===
Kenobi almost did not survive the Sharing.
Every Jedi on Naboo, and some people who weren't Jedi, saw Kenobi's memories and lived them as if they were their own.
Other effect included sharing knowledge like Shirriwook and an increase in Force sensivity in some people, including in Padmé Amidala, who Yoda asked to be his Padawan after her term ended.
