loxar January 4, 2016 January 4, 2016 i dont quite get it yet. if i close my eyes and imagine grass, a tree and a bench, my wonderland is done, right? thats all? now ive read a lot about a tulpa changing your wonderland. but how does this work? if i close my eyes to imagine grass, a bench, a tree and my tulpa, how is it possible to see a huge tower replacing my tree and a horse replacing my bench? does it just fucking work like this? imagining one thing and seeing another? or dont u have to concentrate on every small part of your wonderland to enter it?
Luminesce January 4, 2016 January 4, 2016 A wonderland is just a term for a place you imagine that is relatively static. The difference is as small as randomly imagining some environment every time you want to visualize interacting with your tulpa, and having a specific house and environment around it that is generally unchanging. I for example have a two story house surrounded on any of four sides by a grassy field, bamboo forest, large ravine with a waterfall, and a mountainside. If I wanted to add on to it, I just imagine what I want where and commit it to memory, so that I wouldn't forget about it or have it change due to lack of detail. You don't even really need to do that for your "wonderland" though, and a trait of your wonderland environment could be that it changes. Your wonderland could be a huge world that you randomly enter into different parts of every time, or it could be a constantly shifting Pandemonium. Usually people settle for a house and a biome or two. Hi! I'm Lumi, host of Reisen, Tewi, Flandre and Lucilyn. Everyone deserves to love and be loved. It's human nature. My tulpas and I have a Q&A thread, which was the first (and largest) of its kind. Feel free to ask us about tulpamancy stuff there.
Paranoid Llama January 4, 2016 January 4, 2016 Yeah, that's pretty much it. Have fun! I'm not going to listen to you guys since you are all probably just talking to yourself and don't really have a tulpa like me.
Metatron January 5, 2016 January 5, 2016 Think of it like a mental "home base" of sorts, just a mindscape that you can hone in on relatively easily and is meant to be a go-to. It could be something as simple as a grassy field or as elaborate as a full-blown world with a vast population and multiple bodies of governance. It is mainly to have a place for your mindfolk to call home instead of drifting around in some void unless they are comfortable with the thought. "We are what we repeatedly do.

Guest Anonymous January 5, 2016 January 5, 2016 Can't really say much about wonderlands; it seems ours belongs to Esterina, not me. She's the only one who ever goes there, and it seems she changes stuff a lot. The way I understand it, it's just a relatively static place where interaction between host and tupper is easier. Y'know, because it's so static and mostly unchanging, an easy environment to keep visualizing consistently. But yeah, Esterina and I only interact through projection (our version of imposition). It works great for us, while I have big trouble properly interacting with her or anything at all in our wonderland. So we've come to see and use ours solely as a sort of personal space / home for Esterina, a place where she can freely change things and play around, and a place she can go to when one of us wants to be alone for a while. So that too is one way to utilize a wonderland. Greets, AG

A wonderland is an imagined space in your mind, so the place you described would be one, yes. It doesn't take more than a few minutes to throw together a decent wonderland, but you could always expand on it as time goes on. Your tulpa, like you, is capable of changing the wonderland, so they would just replace these things with other things the same way that you would. So, yes, it just fucking works like that. You don't have to concentrate on the whole of your wonderland to enter it. If you had a city as a wonderland, for example, you could pop yourself into there on a street, the bank, whatever.
Metatron January 6, 2016 January 6, 2016 This thread of discussion actually evokes imagery like Salvador Dali's "Persistence of Memory", the melting clocks artwork. The main purpose of a Wonderland is to have a world ofr your Tulpa, in that being creatures of the mind, they are more likely to be accustomed to a place of the mind just as you, your body, are more accustomed to the corporeal world.
