Fear - the limitor

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.
The Bene Gesserit Littainy against Fear.


Some would say fear is good, some otherwise. I believe fear is to be understood. Because the understanding of fear helps understand the source of fear and thus offers the means to conquer it. It is important to conquer fear, because fear is the limitor. It prevents us from doing or saying what is right. It stops us from standing up for the weak. It stops us, period.
