Hello Viraj! Sounds like you dug up something deep from your psycie! I would not worry about it being a outside force. Go back to when the dream started, what were you working on in your soul? Once you get a idea of what brought it to your attention you can deal with it easier.How does it make you feel? Meditate on the force and ask it questions...await answers, they will come. Use some emofree ( emofree.com ) on the issue or even your lack of understanding on the issue. Also a meditation where you encounter this force and through the elements or pure white light purify it into something positive. Be cautious and loving because its a misunderstood and ill loved aspect of yourself. I would venture to say once this issue is purified and enlightened you will grow a great deal spiritually; it being as strong as you say it is! Feel free to email me privately as i have done some work in dream time facing a similar "demon" ;-), maybe can help you some more if the above is lacking. Best of luck to you! viraj <vnimanje@...> wrote: dear rawn and friends! i am encountering from time to time(the last one 5 minutes ago) a very scary, dark force in my dreams with a strong magnetic pull on me. it seems it just wants to swallow me into horror and extinction. until now i am allways fighting it succsesfully by waking up. just once i gave in consciously and was thrown painfully around by that force. that force feels very real and very distinct from rest of my dreams. the question is: is that force something real, or just a part of my imagination(it doesnt feel like)? is it potentially dangerous(my feeling is it could really kill or catch me, not just in the dream)? and i heard some masters telling that its important to face the darkest fears(that might be it) and to let go into it and see what survives! i am not so sure about that! especially after reading IIH, the chapter about traveling into some elemental worlds and that its important to know how to behave in order to survive. can there be a danger from dreams? thanks for any help, viraj --------------------------------- Yahoo!
