On this same topic;
Why didn't the Daughter disappear into the force when she was killed? Seems like a ability most Jedi are capable of these days. Even Leia did it and she only had like a year of training.
And there were obviously none greater in the light side then the Daughter.
I mean, the Force Spirit ability isn't about how powerful you are with the light side -- it's about completely and utterly knowing yourself on a fundamental level, and fully embracing the Living Force... It's also an ability that even the Jedi believed was impossible, until Qui-Gon's spirit came to Yoda and told him about the Priestesses.
Perhaps it also has to do with The Ones solely embodying the Cosmic Force... Granted, the Living Force feeds/powers the greater Cosmic Force, but they are still treated as two different aspects.
The only issue with that is The Father, as he disappeared/sublimated into the Force after his death... So he clearly knew the ability, but evidently just never saw fit to teach The Daughter how to do so, despite the untold thousands of years they spent in isolation together.
That being said, I suppose you could argue that The Daughter may have achieved a resurrection of sorts, in the form of Morai. /shrug
I would assume that he taught Vader after he died(similarly to how Qui-Gon learned)... Except Vader evidently mastered the ability very quickly, given that he was already appearing as a full-fledged spirit at the end of RotJ.
A bit random, but how did the Priestesses know that Yoda would teach this ability to one who would save the universe from a great imbalance? I presume they can accurately see the future?
