"Strike me down, and I will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine" is a statement made by Obi-Wan Kenobi to Darth Vader. It is directly found in the film, Star Wars: A New Hope.

Obi-Wan is pointing out that energy is basically a beautiful force of nature. It is something that people can not see or touch. It is just like God for most human beings. But for Obi-Wan and others, who believe his ideas, people can influence the flow of energy. This is especially true about how it flows through an individual and his or her life.

Thus by theorizing that the entire universe and everything in it is energy (the Force for Obi-Wan), a person will ultimately recognize the incredible relationship which must come to exist between the two. This relationship fundamentally tells us that if we are in fact energy and are capable of influencing the flow of energy, and if the entire universe is made up of energy, then we as human beings have the total universe at our fingertips.
