@nomad-magus I really appreciate efforts you have put in compiling this article. It has now given me a new view about frightening encounters which I have experienced in the dream world. While I was a kid, I was told to pray against those frightening encounters because if I don't something bad might happen to me. And instead of embracing this part of me, I denied myself that part. But now, I will try to change my beliefs and see how things will go. Thanks for sharing.
