“I can’t have your will tempered by feelings of regret or compassion. You were brought into being, to lead. Therefore, you must see every living thing as nothing more than a tool to elevate you. To move you to your destined place. This is OUR galaxy, Sidious. OUR reality. In this pity less place, your power is forged. Propelled by fear or hatred, even a Jedi can pass beyond the constraints of the Order’s teachings, and discover power, of a more profound sort. But NO Jedi who arrives at the place, who has risen above his or her allegiance to peace and justice, who kills in anger or out of desire can lay REAL claim to the Dark Side of the Force. Their attempts to convince themselves that they “fell” to the Dark Side, or that the Dark Side “compelled” their actions are nothing more than pitiful rationalizations. That is why the Sith embrace the Dark, from the start. Focusing on the acquisition of power. We make NO excuses. The actions of a Sith, begin from the self and flow outward. We stalk the Force like hunters, rather than surrender like prey, to it’s enigmatic whims”.

The mystery of the dark side or 'mysteries of the sith' is possibly the most fascinating sub-plot in the history of fiction and this ambient Darth Plagueis theme perfectly feeds into my inquisitiveness on the subject.
It's amazing to think the Skywalker story we all know and love from the big screen is but a drop in an ocean of Star Wars lore which merely scratches the surface of sith esotericism. By far my favourite moment from the Star Wars movies is the scene in Episode 3 where Palpatine reveals to Anakin the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise.
I actually prefer the prequel trilogy as a whole because the premise and whole time period is basically set during the reemergence of a dormant sith order which was presumed long extinct. We get to witness first-hand the cold and calculative intelligence of the sith who we see as experts at operating beneath the surface, using stealth and cunning to manipulate a desired outcome. By the end of the trilogy, the jedi are undermined and outplayed at every level and left looking weak and inept. In other words, the sith catch the jedi with their pants down BIG TIME.
I was disappointed the more recent sequel trilogy didn't delve more into this subject. I kept waiting for the moment to come and it seemed there was an opportunity with the Snoke character, but they wastefully decided to kill him off, for no apparent reason.

When you are about to sleep, listening to this, in the safe darkness that is your room, you feel your own darkness from within awake as you slip into the darkness of sleep. You awaken in another world, the only supreme being there, ready to become like the Siths of old
