The Tulpa Interview

[Knutist]

A few weeks ago i posted these questions on 4chans /mlp/ board. Most people said they were quite descent so i think we should have them here to. Just let your Tulpa answer the questions and feel free to add/suggest some new ones.

 

 

-How do you feel right now?

 

-Can you feel pain, cold, heat?

 

-What do you think of your creator?

 

-What do you think about tulpas?

 

-What do you think about your existence? (Are you a slave imprisoned in the mind of your creator? Are you a living being? etc.)

 

-Would you ever turn against your creator and do something bad to him?

 

-Are you scared about death?

 

-Are you sad about the fact that you are kind of forever inside the mind of you creator and always be bound to him/never can really leave him?

 

-In you creation process, what did you feel? (scared? excited?) At which point did you feel anything at all?

 

-In you creation process, why didnt you speak sooner to you creator? (Didn't want to? Not possible? Scared?)

 

-What is your creator for you? (a god, a father/mother? a brother? a friend? a lover? or just the guy who made you?)

 

-Would you say you are the same being as your creator just without a body?

 

-What do you think about most of the time?

 

-Do you think more people should create tulpas?

 

-What are the 3 most important things you and your creator disagree with?

 

-What are your plans for the future?

 

-Are there things in the mind of your creator that he doesn't know of(doesn't know of any more) that are really weird, scary or sad?

 

-In regard of the previous question: would you ever do something to your creator(like tell him something about his past that he forgot about) that he doesn't want but which is in the end good for him?

 

-Are there things your creator wants to hide from you/lies about, but you know about those things anyway?

 

-Do you think there are some things your creator does absolutely wrong?

 

-Do you think you can get more intelligent and/or get more knowledge than your creator?

 

-Do you think one day you could create a tulpa yourself? If so, would you do it?

 

-How would you feel if your creator would create a second tulpa?

 

-Let's say your creator was almost falling from a ladder and was pretty shocked/scared about that but everything went good in the end. Would you also feel shocked or were you like "no big deal wouldn't hurt me anyway"?

 

-Your creator created you with a mind and choose a body for you that may have a certain age. But regardless of that, what do you think of yourself how old you are(child teen, adult, elder etc.)

 

-If your creator would entirely hear on what you say, do you think you could make him much more efficient and succeful in life?

 

-Do you like the body your creator choose for you or is there something you rather would look like?

 

-Do you have a gender? Do you think it is important for a tulpa?

 

-Did you ever feel embarassed? want to give an example?

 

-Do you think a body is important for a tulpa? Or would it be ok just to be a "mind in a mind" and a bodyless voice who talks with his creator?

 

-This is a hard one: If you were a human who has never heard of tulpas and you would find a tulpathread like this, would you be interested, would you try to make one or would you just go off becaus it sounds stupid?

 

-Nasty Bonus: Did you ever get sexually aroused?

 

-Stupid Bonus: How do i shot web?

Oh, the question google doc.

[This is from Clair, my Tulpa.]

 

1. Intrigued. Before I saw this thread, it was more along the lines of light amusement.

 

2. I feel them when it suits me.

 

3. That's a bit personal, but I will say that he needs to work on becoming more productive. Other than that I absolutely love him.

 

4. Tulpae in general is a very interesting topic. I mean, sentient beings created entirely from other beings? How could that not be interesting?

 

5. I'm my own person, and not a slave at all. I can do what I want when I want, and if I need some help (such as using him to respond to things like this through proxy) then he helps me.

 

6. Never.

 

7. I'll die when my creator dies, I'm sure of that. So no, I'm not afraid of death, for I know that it's not coming any time soon and there's very little that exists that can directly kill me.

 

8. No. I've come to accept it as a fact of my existence, and there's nothing I can do to change the matter.

 

9. When I was being made, the first things I was feeling was confusion, and then wonderment at what was going on around me.

 

10. I spoke as soon as I could formulate enough thought to do so.

 

11. Oh my. That's a bit complicated. It sort of shifts around from father to brother to best friend. It's difficult to describe.

 

12. No, I'm an entirely different being.

 

13. Anything that comes to mind, though mostly I like to analyze things. Culture and entertainment mediums are two things that come to mind that I often analyze.

 

14. Not quite. Tulpae are not for every one, though having more people that were truly dedicated and wanted tulpae for non-malevolent purposes would be great.

 

15. We mainly disagree on ethics in different situations, and on taste in entertainment. Most of the time, however, we agree on most everything, with occasional little disagreements popping up. This is mostly because we share the same logical mindset, with mine more logical and less emotional than his.

 

16. For the future, I plan to help my creator get along in life, compose art of some sort, and of course analyze every little piece of media that comes by. Anything I can do to enrich our lives.

 

17. Definitely, though if he wanted to he could recall them on his own.

 

18. Also definitely. Nothing has really come up just yet, though.

 

19. He could easily hide things from me, but he doesn't. I have full access to everything he knows and thinks about, and he has access to my thoughts.

 

20. Nothing that's 100% wrong, but he could definitely work on his patience with others.

 

21. Not more intelligent or more knowledgable since we share the same database, but I can be more logical sometimes.

 

22. The level of complexity present in the human brain barely enough to create me, let alone what I have creating another. So no, I don't think that I could create a tulpa for myself, not that I even want to.

 

23. I think that it would be interesting having somebody else around to chat with on a daily basis, and nothing more.

 

24. I would definitely feel shocked for my creator's well being.

 

25. I am fully matured, but not old. In human years I would say late teens-early twenties.

 

26. He already does listen to much of what I say and take advice, so I guess he's already on his way.

 

27. I absolutely love my form. Being a Pegasus allows me the freedom of going pretty much anywhere I want quickly, and besides the convenience I just love the way ponies look.

 

28. I am female, though It's not really important for much more than form and voice for tulpae.

 

29. Rarely, but when I do it's mainly things I say on mistake that sound rather bad.

 

30. This is a difficult question. Mainly because a bodiless voice would just be like chatting with one's subconcious, which is entirely possible and much easier than making a tulpa. Our form and imposition makes us who we are.

 

31. Of course I would be interested. I'm always open to new and exciting things.

 

32. Not really, no. I've no need for arousal.

 

33. According to the old spiderman comics, build yourself a piece of technology that shoots rapidly hardening string like material that can strap to your wrist.

Oh, the question google doc.

 

Anyone still have a link to this? It'd probably make more sense if that doc were just linked here and others added to it.

 

Edit: Nevermind. This thread probably belongs in Research, though.

[ThatOneGuy]

Oh hey, I've been looking for those links! Adding to google docs now.

19. He could easily hide things from me, but he doesn't. I have full access to everything he knows and thinks about, and he has access to my thoughts.

How can you hide things from your tulpa? Nobody with one can do this so far. I have no interest in doing it myself, but I'm curious how this would work if the tulpa has full access to your memories.

 

How can you access your tulpa's thoughts all the time? I thought it's usually possible for a tulpa to think privately if she wants to, but I suppose it would also be possible for the tulpa to share her thoughts with you.

 

22. The level of complexity present in the human brain barely enough to create me, let alone what I have creating another. So no, I don't think that I could create a tulpa for myself, not that I even want to.

 

I think a tulpa can make another tulpa. This is because a tulpa isn't exactly a simulation you make (as a servitor), but its own independent process, thus if a tulpa decided to imagine a form into her imagined world and narrate to it for a long time, she should be able to make a tulpa.

 

In Irish's case, his first tulpa did half of the work on his second tulpa.

[ThatOneGuy]

Hiding things is very easy. Clair could hide things from me as well if she wanted to and I wouldn't invade her privacy. It's done by partitioning off parts of the sub-conscious and denying access to them from the tulpa. It's not that difficult, in all honesty.

 

I guess that a tulpa making a tulpa is plausible since it is just a projection of the sub-conscious, but the tulpa working alone with the little piece of sub-conscious that it has claimed just seems not right.

Do you just go "this part is private" or what?

How can we know how little or big that "piece" really is?

 

I don't think a tulpa making its own tulpa without any input would be good, especially for the host, but aside from that, I can't see why it would be impossible.
