Question about what I need to concentrate on to create my tulpa

[NitroAgent64]

Recently I have started to create a tulpa called Galaxia. I have found that visualization a form for my tulpa and a wonderland is incredibly difficult for me. Thus, I have assigned my left hand as the zone where Galaxia's essence is contained, and as an area where I can concentrate on her. So my question is, if my tulpa will doesn't start with a form do I need to pay the most attention to narration and concentration on my hand? Please let me know if there is anything else I need to concentrate on. Also I have decided to only give my tulpa three personality aspects to start with, so personality is something I will not need to concentrate on too much, as far as I know.

A form is not absolutely necessary. It's possible to create a formless tulpa who's just a disembodied voice or thought stream in your mind. The tulpa may or may not prefer to have a form, but they can create that themselves if they want it and were created without one. A formless tulpa can still have a feeling of presence or position in the real world, or be something like a vague invisible cloud surrounding you or near you.

 

Note though that just because you stink at visualization doesn't mean you need to go that route. When I started out, the best I could do was close my eyes and visualize my tulpa's vague black silhouette against the black nothingness of my closed eyes. I don't know how close my problem was to yours, but I was trying to make something appear against the backs of my eyelids, which is a bunch of levels above what I was at. Instead I had to find my mind's eye, which feels sort of like seeing but on a separate "plane" or "layer" than my real vision, where stuff I imagine doesn't have to compete with the much stronger signals from my eyes. Reading or writing vivid descriptions of things or narrating what you're visualizing to yourself can help you locate it. Until I was used to finding it, I'd visualize either vivid scenes or flashing lights before going to my wonderland and seeing it there.

 

Meditation helps too. Visuals get more vivid when you're in a trance. Sit or lay down, close your eyes, relax and breathe deeply. Focus on your breathing, the feeling of air entering and leaving your body, letting each breath pull in calmness and breathe out tension. Once you feel loose and chill, shift your focus to a fairly simple but happy and relaxing scene like a sunny meadow or a beach. It can start out as either a full landscape you can walk around, or just like a backdrop you can visualize things in front of as mine did. As you go, this can evolve into a full wonderland.

Thank you for the reply I really appreciate the comment. I have tried mediation and only done it successfully once. This is due to my body's need to move. When I sit up and try to meditate my back kills me. When I lay down to meditate my limbs eventually get so glittery that I can't concentrate and my blood begins to boil. I suspect that once I get older I will be able to more easily meditate as my body and mind begin to quiet more. I have the same issues with visualization with the added bonus of not being able to see real form or color. So for know I think I will stick to the formless method. So if I indeed do stick with the method I mentioned in my first comment, would narration and concentration on the sensation of my tulpa be what I need to concentrate on the most. And again I really appreciate your response to my question.
