English

I must not fear.

Fear is the mind-killer.

Fear is the little death that brings 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.
