The Bene Gesserit Lied for 10,000 Years: Paul Atreides & Kwisatz Haderach Explained | DUNE LORE 

Saying the BG were the “most powerful” is questionable. They were one of a few major powers in the Imperium. The Guild, for example, was arguably as or more powerful-Paul’s key to the throne was forcing the Guild to kneel.

I think the limitation that the BG have discovered in themselves and that has led them to the inception of the breeding program for the Kwisatz Haderach is of their own making...They can't unlock the male component of their ancestry and as a result they also lack the male perspective when using their prescience and looking into the future. This is why they want to breed for the KH, i.e. the male version of a BG with ancestral memory vision down both lines. But if you look at the places in the book where they describe the reasons for their inability, you notice that they have been limiting themselves without perhaps knowing it; they talk about a place where they "dare" not look because it is "terrifying" to them as women or something in this direction. This suggests that looking there is not dangerous in itself, but is made dangerous by the way they feel about it. This suggests that thy are essentially limited in what they can achieve psychically and spiritually because of FEAR - which is deeply ironic because they have also invented the Litany Against Fear which states fear to be "the mind-killer"...They will probably not be prima facie "killed" by looking at that part they want the KH to look at, but just as they can change their body chemistry and their physiology at will, they very likely also conditioned it to respond in a certain way to that side simply by fearing it, to the point that it really would have become lethal for them to look there. So their problem is not so much that they wanted to create a being who was by definition more powerful than they and who they, consequently, would never by able to control in the way they wanted to. It is also that they failed to see that they would essentially have no more purpose and hence no more power base once the KH did indeed exist because their vision was this limited. They were very likely also never aware that their limitations were of their own making because they did not even follow their own teachings.

Nothing from Brian Herbert’s books should be considered canon.

I already know this almost 20 years ago, and back then we only have the Lynch's movie and that TV series. He was never ment to be but the thousands of Humanities voice echoed throughout the millennia chosen him, for they themselves knew if humanity were to survive they need a Kwisatz Haderach. But unfortunately for Paul he saw what The Golden Path will do to humanity and what he needs to become and choose to exile himself for his inability to accept the burden. But Leto has no problem with that. Leto II carried that mantle instead.

Amazing summary! Thanks so much!

To be a reverend mother, the BG needed to drink the water of life not OD on spice. Apart from some of details being incorrect, this is still an entertaining video

Not technology, thinking machines. A lot of technology still exists but thinking is preserved for humans only

Thanks for clearing it up

your edit skill is awesome dude... 😂

You should have brought up all the Duncan Gholas. That was a neat side story that made him a very powerful man as well. Great video tho.

No...the water of life makes a reverend mother

I don't remember telekinesis anywhere in Dune.

Bro tryin na understand this shit is like trying to understand RCT/CE/DE but 100 times more complicated 😂. When he was talking about "the voice" i was just hearing sharingan and genjutsu but with the voice instead of eyes. I'm glad these guys did this, and i hope they do more cos i still am confused a little bit 😂. MBD 🔥🔥🔥🔥

great channel.

To explain such loss of life is easier than people think. Just answer the following: Why did the houses, after finding out what the emperor did, still sided with him and against Paul Atreides? And on that note, if the houses considered his rule illegitimate, why did he still feel he had to marry the emperor's daughter? The symbolic gesture became irrelevant and would lead to more problems than necessary. FYI UniverseGalaxy. Saying it because the majority of Dune fans don't know the difference.

George W snorting spice made this video for me, lol!

Spice is a hell of a drug 😂

So they took all of Indian Yogic and Meditation techniques and made it into Bene Gesserit origins and methods

7:21 That conman is hilarious 😂

Epic..amazing..40 years of waiting for Dune Universe to come to the casual viewers..love rhis series sinxe i was a young boy ..was consider a nerd..but now Dune us everywhere..more books ..more.movies and tv series about it...

Wow was Chapterhouse NOT been read, you did well enough for the 1st 3 books.

🔥🔥🔥lets go

Look what Helen Mohiam did to the Baron. That’ll learn him.

dune is truly a complicated and intimidating series that truly has so many moving parts that is truly happening from through all at once for instance there is so much betrayal back stabbing a organization having way to many secret plans craving for power having to many agendas and manipulating so many people from throughout the whole universe along with so many other things from through the past 10,000 year's it's honestly pretty funny that part of the series really gives you some vibes from attack on titan when it's comes to eren getting the finding titan ability and seeing the future from within the process of it all and simply seeing the comparisons from paul and Leto the second from through there journey but all in all great video keep up the good work quick question would you ever do a video on the butlerian jihad or the dune encyclopedia

haha werdddd that Leto eggplant was too good for Jessica.

Let's go MBD 🥰🥰

Mentats uses sapho juice not spice melange.

10,191 - not 1,191. Good video!

So basically the BG have all 3 forms of Haki and there advance forms, damn why didn't he just that smh...

What's really gonna blow everyone mind is when they find out they cloned Duncan, then they used him as a sex slave basically and how he is the real one.

0:35 I thought that test was just to see if he fit their definition of 'human'...?

How did you manage to pronounce Siona as Sinoa? Amd Ghanima as Guyana? And the other names whatever you pronounced there...?

honored matres were fish speaker descendants, not bene gesserit descendants

The BG reminds me of the CIA

Omg that was def a spice trip 😂😂

No Leto the second might be more what they envisioned

Say it with me now, SEE-OH-NAH.

Are u also Anime Balls Deep?

At the end of the 6th book .The real MVP is Duncan Idaho.

I didnt get that one thing, is every Mentat one assasine? I thought they r human computers?

Google scytale irl. Also its pronunciation.

That is 10192, not 1192.

Lol bro, the pronunciations are whooping your behind.

Wait a minute,the Benes process are all named with Indian words,in Sanskrit?

That is brown sugar bro.

Damn no spoiler alert?

Spoiler Alert!!!!! Paul is not the kwisatz haderach

10191, not 1192.

Funny if you are a bengali, everything makes sense in dune.

mmmmm tapas

IT IS NOT DOO-DOO!

NO CRAP THEY ARE ONLY SUPPOSED TO HAVE GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

07:20 he is a rapi*st and currently on run

🎉🔥⚡🎁 🧑‍🔬🧑‍🔬🧑‍🔬🧑‍🔬

Paul as a woman would be like Dylan Mulvaney. Not exactly attractive.

11:50 "Choose the sex of their babies." not change the gender of the baby before birth.

The first dune movie was the best one ever made and it always will be the actor that played Paul in the new Dune movie was too effeminate also the storyline the way they made it in the new movie sucked and before you say something yes it was a good movie but the storyline still sucked

Reverent mother? Lol

Give some gap between your sentences.

So much wrong in this presentation. Trying to be "cool" made this whole thing inaccurate. Pop culture and bad interpretation made this unwatchable. Try again when ..and if.... you grow up.

The last line is easy.... its the woke... a terrible terrible thing that can rot away any franchise

paul>pa el.. Mean father el >saturn.

This dune is not dune in the real dune Talia say he is the kwisatz sadarac that movie is much better because it tells the hole story Thay didn't break it in two this version sucked better effects though
