Tulpa 'origin' model

This is an older model that tried to explain the various 'origins' of tulpa.  the idea was that each tulpa would have one origin, that each origin excluded the others, and that each one would have a set of skills which assisted in its use.  I had an exciting chance to explain the model to a meta-physician, and actual found it fit quite well into the terms commonly used.

This is now, in my mind, a failed model.  It does not account for many of the variations possible in tulpa creation, nor does it predict by 'origin' the traits a tulpa will have (which was its original purpose).  It can help in talking about tulpa to assign an origin as a way to guess at traits, but the correlation is not high enough for this to be used by itself.

I am working on another version which approaches the idea a little differently.  The new model intends to take the origins and make them overlapping by identifying the various techniques for creating a tulpa.  by establishing scales, I hope to establish a dictionary of terms which will describe all possible methods of tulpa creation. Additionally, I hope to allow prediction of general traits common to all tulpa using a given method, again based on that new dictionary.

As always, any feedback is appreciated.  Also, I want to thank Jubilee and Draega{Irri} for breaking the origin model and pushing me to improve it.

Psychological Explaination of the Tulpa 'origin' Model:
  • origin one, 'character' is to convince your consciousness to emulate that of a person or character you already know well.
    • Accidental Hypnosis (and I suppose intentional...)
  • origin two, 'original' relies on talking to your mind, telling it about itself and who the tulpa will be until it responds.
  • origin three, 'splinter' involves splitting your personality and then letting the two sides diverge over time.
  • origin four, 'sub conscious' takes impulses and feeling and gives them a name, bringing an aspect of your deepest mind to the surface.

Metaphysical Explaination of the Tulpa 'origin' Model:
 notice, I used creation 'method' at this point, as I was already begining to see issues between the origin term.
  • One method is the call for a soul like one you are familiar with.  This can be as complex as a friend, or as simple as a character.  
  • A second method is to write down a list of traits and cast forth for a soul with those traits, at least.  
  • A third method is to rip your soul in two and heal both pieces. 
  • A fourth method is to birth one of yourself, using the creative energies contained in you.
