So,
I mentioned earlier making a Pinkie Pie tulpa accidentally. She was
fun, but I've put her into stasis, because having a Pinkie Pie running
around was getting REALLY distracting. I'm planning to give her energy
and personality to another tulpa, maybe Pulse when I wake her up. I get
ahead of myself though. I've had further Tulpa experience now, a
different tulpa (currently unnamed). Here is her story thus far.
Tulpa
are built from the subconscious and unconscious, in that way they are
not simply splinters. They take additional imaginative resources to have
an objective reality. For this, I have certain advantages from my
past. I can literally hand parts of my mind to representations, as I
did with Pinkie Pie. I’ve developed full personalities before: Job (the
biblical name) and Pulse, my critical failure backups, being the most
developed. I’ve been practicing visualization for YEARS.
So
when I wanted a tulpa (still ignorant at this point), I just places a
grey globe in my vision, gave it a section of my unused mind (chaos
sector), and let it do as it wished. So it floated around, teleported,
started producing waveforms on its surface. Floated around other
people, jumped in front of my face (nearly tripped, damn it). I wasn’t
the one controlling it either, as proven by it being able to scare me.
So,
given that I produced something like that so fast, there are only two
ways to think about it that I can see. Either my past experiences have
trained me for tulpa creation, or because I’m ignoring how hard it
should be I’m doing it entirely wrong. I don’t really know...
So,
I’ll finish the story. Eventually, the globe started to manifest basic
hands (think hitchhiker’s guide), but I said stop. then again, tried
for a face, but I said stop. The globe became agitated (I was calling
it ‘Globe’ in my head at this point) and so i gave in. 5 seconds later,
a medium skinned woman, white but not pale, in a ruffly black dress
over white shirt, had appeared. I forced her back into a globe, but she
popped back when I released the force. I pulled the globe from her,
which left both Globe and her lifeless. So I put them back and let her
do as she pleased.
She
followed me to class, skipping lightly. Wanted to dance with me... no
idea why (I hate dancing). Oh, she couldn’t speak, but her body
language was flawless. At some point I just carried her piggyback
because of the crowds... I could superposition her through someone else,
but i didn’t want a tulpa phasing through my reality (more like a ghost
then). Eventually I got near class and realized it would be boring for
her. So i made a White Box Wonderland (100 feet to an edge, grid by 5
feet, light grid by 1 foot) and made clear she could do as she pleased.
So
she locked the door (cherry wood, nice finish, brass handle, locked).
I knocked once and she just opened it slightly and shushed me. 5 hours
later, she showed up in the room with me. I talked to her, and her
response was, “Why are you making me? Do you need to split and section
further? Find out Why?” and then returned to the wonderland (i guess,
she just stopped being there). i knocked again, right after a few
hypnosis files, and all I heard from the otherside of the door was “Go
away, you are drunk.”
Understand...
I made Globe yesterday. This form, this woman, appeared today. From
everything I’ve read, she shouldn’t be talking... or acting... or
anything.
Now,
I looked back. I found her source, a personality called Sarah from 4
years back. Not one I used, just on the council. Dark clothes, shorter
than the tulpa, had a little sister. This is, she is gone... I
couldn’t resurrect more than a few images of what Sarah did back when
she was around. The tulpa doesn’t seem like an older Sarah, just
someone from the same family.
Alright, you've used the the word tulpa many times in this entry, but you've never explained:
ReplyDeleteWhat IS a tulpa?
And I don't mean a dictionary-like definition either, it'd be helpful to know a good deal about them.
OKay, I'm developing mine using a different method than every guide out there, but tulpa.info has most of the information. But let me take a stab at a NOT super confusing definition.
ReplyDeleteA tulpa is much like an adult's imaginary friend. They have fully developed personalities, they walk around in your vision as if they were real, you can interact with them, and they are not controlled by you. Many are human. Some are animals - ponies are popular recently - and a very few are objects.
