Sabitsuki November 18, 2013 Share November 18, 2013 I'm pretty confident that what I had several years ago was a tulpa. He didn't have a name or a consistent form, but he was always there for me, especially when I was feeling really low. He pushed me to do good things and to be a better person. We didn't really get along sometimes because I'm lazy and a liar and he was all about justice and doing what's right, but he was a great friend. Eventually, I figured that he was a sign that I was losing my mental stability and I ignored him until he disappeared. Years later, now that I know about tulpas and that other people do have them, I am so regretful. Is there a way to get him back? Is he still there somewhere?

Redline November 18, 2013 Share November 18, 2013 I'd suppose remember all the times you had together, and think hard. Really hard. If at all possible, call out anything even remotely close to a name. Just go through the normal stages of creating, but everywhere you would have to visualize, take that as your cue to try and remember. If he was there, he should return. Old friends never really go away, you just lose things to talk about. If I could offer any sort of certainty, I would; I'm not an expert, though. However! I'm pretty sure that as long as you have a memory strong enough, you can't lose. This is where all the good stuff goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabitsuki November 18, 2013 Author Share November 18, 2013 Thank you so much for giving me an answer. I called him lots of different names. I'd always end up calling him something else whenever he changed shape in my mind's eye, and that happened really often. We did stick with one name for a while, though, so I will absolutely try it. We had a strong connection for at least a full year, so there's lots of memories for me to draw upon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redline November 18, 2013 Share November 18, 2013 Go with it! Just be sure to document a few of the key moments to have something to tie the image down, y'hear? This is where all the good stuff goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
left blank November 18, 2013 Share November 18, 2013 Is there a way to get him back? Is he still there somewhere? Your situation resonates with me. And judging by my experience: Yes, to both of your questions. He's a part of you, so being entirely rid of him is less likely than resurrection (so-to-speak). Meditate. Try to remember the way his presence felt to you. Recall specific moments. Write and document everything you feel, think or perceive about him in a diary or progress report. Encourage him to greet you in dreams. Imagine him with you whenever you can. Ultimately, his ability to manifest again is a matter of your perception.

A few have tried that and reported some success." Please consider supporting Tulpa.info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few have tried that and reported some success." Yeah, that is great advice! Symbolic gestures are a very effective way to communicate with the inner mind. Building on that idea, you could fabricate a simple paracosm with a mailbox, then write a real letter that you can also manifest as an imaginary facsimile. What you say in the letter is, of course, up to you, but I suggest inviting your erstwhile mind-guide to meet you in a location of his or your choosing. I also recommend checking the imaginary mailbox daily until you get a response. Keep in mind, your tulpa's correspondence may not be instantaneous, obvious or even coherent at first, but go with what immediately feels right. Don't lose faith! You can rekindle your lost connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabitsuki November 19, 2013 Author Share November 19, 2013 Thank you for your advice. I've written a letter, both mentally and physically, and placed it into an imaginary mailbox. I made sure to raise the flag on the side so my imaginary mailman could tell I have something to send! I think my greatest fear now, other than the idea of him not returning, is that he might be mad or feel betrayed. I just hope that he comes back and that we can be friends again.

Redline November 19, 2013 Share November 19, 2013 If you had such good times, I'm pretty sure he's just been waiting for you to call out. This is where all the good stuff goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabitsuki November 19, 2013 Author Share November 19, 2013 After sitting and thinking and trying to make a connection for more than an hour, I think I've gotten a hold of him again. He's not quite as "there" as he used to be, but I can feel him and I know he isn't gone. Thank you both again for your advice! It helped me a lot.
