The Bene Gesserit (from Latin: see the origin of the name) are a key social, religious and political force in Frank Herbert's science fiction universe of Dune. They are a secretive sisterhood who train their bodies and minds through years of physical and mental conditioning, attaining powers and abilities that can seem almost magical.

In the real world, the name "Bene Gesserit" was likely extracted from the legal Latin phrase "quamdiu se bene gesserit" = "as long as he/she shall behave himself well", via someone knowing that "bene" is also Hebrew for "sons of". Bene Gesserit by itself means "(s)he shall have behaved well". Gesserit is a form of the Latin verb 'gero' (specifically the third person singular of the future perfect active indicative), whose meanings include "to carry", "to wear", "to manage", "to bear [a child]", "to behave", or simply "to do". T ...

Bene Gesserit - Training from childhood. The Bene Gesserit begin training acolytes when they are very young, and those of preference they would begin training from birth. The younger a child becomes an acolyte, the more likely that child will become a Reverend Mother. The Bene Gesserit do train people at later ages, but only if they are supremely talented (e.g., the House Corrino leader Farad'n) or if they have already received similar training (e.g., the Honoured Matre M ...

Bene Gesserit - Addiction to the melange. Reverend Mothers are dependent on melange. Bene Gesserit however, have no dependency upon the drug unless they undergo the spice agony. Though the effects of melange are highly favourable, including vastly increased lifespan and mental powers, it is an addiction. Withdrawal causes death and individual Reverend Mothers are vulnerable to isolation and being without the sisterhood's resources. Melange is expen ...

In the prequel novels written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J Anderson, the Sorceresses of Rossak, who possess powers only females can use and have a breeding plan to create more powerful telepaths, are undoubtebly the precursors to the Bene Gesserit (although most fans do not consider the prequels canon).

In Dune: House Harkonnen, the Baron Vladimir Harkonnen forces his way into the Bene Ge ...

In the Dune novel, the Bene Gesserit used the following chanted words to reduce their fear. "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 th ...
