    While Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon were on Naboo, some elder Jedi mystic discovered the proper technique to survive lightsaber wounds. The information was not dispersed before Qui-Gon met his fate. Truly a dark irony. However, his death and the re-emergence of the Sith prompted the immediate training of this technique to the point that it became common knowledge even among the most green of padawans.

    Or perhaps it’s better to think that maybe Qui-Gon learned this ability while in the Force and has now shared it from beyond the grave, a thing that saved so many Jedi yet could only happen as a result of Qui-Gon’s death.

      Qui Gon also accepted the idea of his own death beforehand, and some also think that through his meditation he knew that him dying was the only way that would eventually lead to Anakin being redeemed and killing the Emperor. Maybe the timeline where he survived and looked after Anakin was a worse timeline, he was also starting to get very worried about how the Jedi Order was becoming and that may also have played a role in any potential clairvoyance, with him realising that things needed to get worse for the galaxy before it could heal again properly, so the Order needed to fall.

        Or Anakin just caused them all to lose the will to live. I hear he has that effect on women people.
