In case we assume that this Pret Atman is traveling with the help of air then one can understand that air carrying this Pret Atman may pass through bad smell , or snakes, river or well ice age or snakes or scorpion or animals etc. Air may pass through heat , mountains etc. In Verse 15 of Chapter 2 there is one river known as Vaitarni River. This river is full of blood and bones and flesh of human beings or animals ,reptiles etc. This is full of fear psychosis . Nothing is left to your imagination which can not  create fear. Importance is given to Brahmin or Cow or religious activities and service to King or husband . After 17 days on 18th day it reaches to Village no. 1.
