Description

This article is from the Dune FAQ, by Alan Schwartz with numerous contributions by others.

4.9 What is the Litany Against Fear? (Dune)

The Litany Against Fear exists in two versions; both recited by Paul at
different occasions in "Dune_.

---------------
4.9.1 The Gom-Jabbar version

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

---------------
4.9.2 The Sandstorm version

Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past me I will turn to see fear's path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
