The Canons

The Canons were a collection of works familiar to the Narkis Anchorites. It was known to explore themes such as truth, knowledge, and enlightenment. In it, truth was said to be the equal to truth of all things, while knowledge was equalled with the Force of All Others.
The Canons were occasionally juxtaposed with Eussen's Lemma. The latter explored the antinomy of enlightenment, understood to be a paradox of the inevitability two contradictory cycles: that of enlightenment, termed "cycle-breaking," and the "suffering of the cycle," defined by the Canons as the result of being enlightened. This was taken to mean that the more individuals strived to break the cycle, the more they embodied it, but by accepting it, enlightenment could be reached, thus breaking said cycle.
By 9 BBY, Eussen's Lemma had confounded scholars for centuries, and was understood by some anchorites to mean that one could not reason their way to true enlightenment, a view rejected by others based on the Canons.
