As I said before, many paths through the Force there are. You would not be the first to use the Force, and reject the Jedi way. Wrong it would be to expect you to conform to our beliefs. Accepted them your brother did, because his will it was to do so. If your will it is to wield the Force, no allegiance to the Jedi do you owe, beyond your own judgement on when and how to use your gift.
[Basically, "don't make me regret training you". The Force could be dangerous, and it was sort of Yoda's job to see that it wasn't misused.]

Using the Force is one thing, being a Jedi is another, and she has no interest in the latter. That's Luke's thing, and her path to repairing the galaxy was elsewhere. But here, here there was a need to know how to defend herself without relying on blasters.]
I accept.
[But all she really knows about the Force mostly comes from Luke and Vader back home, and what she's seen here. Which isn't much of a variety, all things considered, so--]
What can the Force do? Aside from how Luke uses it, that is.

[He pauses, as Leia was basically jumping right into the deep end with her question. There was a lot to the Force, and not even Yoda had experienced it all.]
Connects all life together, the Force does. In hands properly trained, virtually no limit there is in what the Force can do, limited only by the will of the wielder. Through the Force, you may sense the intentions of those who would keep them guarded, or calm sentient beings with your own inner calm. See critical moments you may, times in which direct action is necessary to tip the scale of a conflict in your favor, though great focus is required for this particular gift.
[He pauses again.]
Many are the mysteries of the Force, and not even I, in my 900 years, have seen them all. Teach you how to apply the Force to your natural abilities I can. Beyond that, we may discover potential you have for further gifts together.

Perhaps my question was too vague.
[She's not a Jedi, she won't be a Jedi, but she can probably use the Jedi as an example for the sort of things she wants to know here.]
In the Jedi Order, how did people generally use the Force, outside of just in battle?
no subject
Direct and to the point, your question was, but unlike any other skill, is using the Force. Teach you I can, but first you must let go of rigid ideas of what the Force is and is not.
[There's tones of reprimand in Yoda's voice. While he was leaving the Jedi way out of it, the Force wasn't a blaster, to be fired and set aside.]
Perhaps in person, this lesson is better conducted.
no subject
[Because at least in person, it's easier to get a demonstration of other things the Force can do. Beyond jumping and moving things and all that, that is.]
But if it's the same to you, I'd like to wait a bit before that.
[Since she's still shaken up about That Whole Anakin Thing, and she knows he focus is elsewhere. With how difficult meditation was with Obi-Wan when things were more normal here, she has a feeling that trying to do anything with the Force while she's like this just won't end well.]
