What is Litania against Dune’s fear?
Dunes’ books are incredibly dense and full of rich details, with expansive world creation, which provides a context that makes Paul Asraid’s call to power entertaining and inevitable. Franco Herbert’s novel was also a complete understanding of biology, religion and history. On the surface, the story of the first book is an entertaining story about the young boy’s age who becomes a leader and tearing a tyrant with a group of rebels. Except that this is only a part of the “Duna” story A story that covers tens of thousands of years.
Just like the Lord of the Rings, no single “Duna” adaptation really could turn on everything that the book and the universe did, given how much the land is to cover. Indeed, every adaptation was focused on something else that makes every journey to the Arakis unique and should look. For example, David Lynch’s version includes Weirding Way and Guild navigators, while Danny Wilwow’s version erases both. Similarly the Villeneu version of all but erases the role of the mentals to make greater attention to the Bene Gesserit.
Wilnenev seems to be fascinated by the Bene Gesserit, not so much their martial arts skills as in genetic experiments and religious technology – for example, to make the Missionaria protectiva a huge part of “dunes: the second part” – and the common manipulation schemes throughout the universe. Bene Gesserit – A largest part of Warner Bros. The Dune universe to guarantee his own prequel that tells about their origin, answering questions, do not even give answers.
One of these questions is that the series Prikwell “DUN: Prophecy” seems to be answered, is a true origin of Litania against fear, from which the mantle is the murderer of the mind, perhaps one of the most memorable quotes of the original Roman.
The origin of the litany against fear
Litania against fear is the Mantra Paul Atreid, which repeats itself trying to survive the gom jabbar test. Mantra Bene Hesserit, Paul will find out about it from Jessica, which repeats the litany several times within two “Duna” films. This is a mantra, the main one in the idea of ​​Ben Geiserita, the ideas about the power of the mind, having the opportunity to even control our most basic, animistic instinct only with our mind. It is a cool mantra, but the one that acquires a more literal meaning in the new TV show.
“Duna’s prophecy” has already taken measures to clarify or explain parts of films that have not attracted much attention, Like a life ceremony. When it comes to the litany of fear, the spin-off makes the “fear-is the killer of the mind” a rather literal statement. In the show, we will learn about a person named Desmond Hart, who possesses great power that can burn people from the inside of a simple look from the greyhound. It turns out that he received his powers after experiencing the attack on the sand on the Arakis, after which he was implanted in his eyes with nanotechnological sunses using prohibited thinking machines by an unknown person (or machine).
Nanotech implant activates the virus that is bioengineen, which concentrates in the human bean – the center of the brain – and causes a chain reaction that becomes stronger so that a person reflects against the horrific visions caused by the virus. In other words, infected dying with fear. Bene Gesserit, able to literally change their body’s chemical compositions to combat viruses and poisons, unable to fight the virus. Until Valia Harkonen’s Rev. Mother imitates the virus, encountered with the fear caused by the virus, giving her to move through her and through her until he disappeared.
Let it be “I will face my fear, and I will let it pass me through and through me” literally is a good choice or not, at least interesting to see “Duna: Prophecy”, and thus Danny Wilwau “Duna”, expand Herbert, showing his admission to the universe, showing a long and painful story, which eventually led to the rise of Paul.
