Before Star Wars, there was The Star Wars! This is the authorized adaptation of George Lucas's rough-draft screenplay of what would eventually become a motion picture that would change the world. Annikin Starkiller is the hero . . . Luke Skywalker is a wizened Jedi general . . . Han Solo is a big green alien . . . and the Sith . . . Well, the Sith are still the bad guys. High adventure and derring-do from longer ago, in a galaxy even further away!

Interesting. So the very first jedi in the mythos were able to achieve perfect balance between the light and the dark, yet nobody after them could. Sad

Force-users who gathered on Tython and laid down the foundations of the Jedi Order became very impressive in the ways of the Force with passage of time. It was during this period that some Force-users began to explore the darker aspects of the Force and they accomplished wonders in this aspect. This led to a great war between those who wanted to use the Force for greater good and those who wanted to use the Force for personal gains and it eventually led to banishment of some survivors known as the Exiles.
The Exiles discovered Korriban and they impressed the planet's native Sith (species) with their prodigious powers. The Exiles then laid down the foundations of the Sith Empire.
And from here began a long history...

Revan achieved it once against Vitiate. It seems the very first jedi achieved it on a daily basis.

Tython records and ruins suggest that the earlier Jedi did not see as black and white as Jedi and Sith do now, but there were an extreme faction under one minority master that were destroyed in a battle.
After the two schisms, it seems the Jedi became more uptight, afraid of what could happen if evil were to run amok. This implies that the devastation during these schisms was cataclysmic.
You're talking about Rajivari? And it still doesn't excuse the fact that the first jedi "got it". And then 36,000 years of bullshit transpired.
