The Encounter

The experiencer describes an encounter with a tall, praying mantis-like being during an abduction event. This occurred in their bedroom on the third floor of a split-level house. The being entered through a sliding screen door and stood over the experiencer, who felt terrified and paralyzed. The being communicated that the human body is just a vessel for the soul and that it needed to make adjustments. It conveyed a sense of urgency, similar to a surgeon instructing a patient to remain still. The experiencer reported feeling physical sensations, like tugging on their cheek, but later questioned the reality of the physical damage. The encounter left the experiencer with a complex understanding of their body and soul but did not mention lasting physical effects.
