The_Unnamed April 29, 2017 Share April 29, 2017 As you've known, Celeste has told me that our wonderland is the universe inside my head; the characters, locations, creatures, demons, and etc, but I feel that she and my other tulpa, Vincent, have strayed away from those places since I haven't been using my imagination lately because of stress. The world in my head is starting to be hazy, a bit blurry and every time I try thinking of Putridus or Cruentus or even Atritas's empire, my head starts to slightly strain. I have been writing another one of my novels, but it doesn't have the same qualities it once had in late 2015 / early 2016 (due to the creation of Dortarians, which then lead to the creation of Umbrians and the Aicelea). Tonight I want to force normally and speak to Celeste the way I should, but I can only visualize with my eyes closed since with my eyes open it is difficult. I am told you shouldn't close your eyes during forcing or visualization. but it is the only way for me to focus. Should I try this tonight?

Heckhound April 29, 2017 Share April 29, 2017 I force with my eyes closed 98 percent of the time. A lot of people do. Nothing to worry about on that front. I can't imagine why someone would tell you not to, unless they were trying to help you not fall asleep during forcing, which is fine as well. pr // discord: Heckhound#6112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulpa001 April 29, 2017 Share April 29, 2017 The advice that you shouldn't close your eyes during forcing I only found in one general guide. I think closing your eyes is actually standard. I believe the rationale was it would be a struggle to impose your tulpa later if you closed your eyes. Host comments in italics. Tulpa's log. Tulpa's guide.

Lucilyn April 29, 2017 Share April 29, 2017 well, we close our eyes to wonderland, open for imposition (duh) and open or closed while just talking depending on if we're in bed or not I guess? do whatever works, like with everything else in tulpamancy Hi, I'm one of Lumi's tulpas! I like rain and dancing and dancing in the rain and if there's frogs there too that's bonus points. I think being happy and having fun makes life worth living, so spreading happiness is my number one goal!

nihi0145632 April 30, 2017 Share April 30, 2017 Before, i used to force with my eyes open. I could be in the wonderland and at the outerworld at the same time but now it isn't the same anymore, i can't somehow perform double vision like i did before. Everything went blurry. One reason why i have my wonderland is small is that i could imagine it so easily. Either way, forcing open eyed or closed eyes can work just stick to the one that makes you comfortable. Hello! I am nihi, i have 3 tulpas Summer Myrtle Cherry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaViAlcatraz May 28, 2017 Share May 28, 2017 Have you tried meditation before visualizing? It always helps me clear my mind, and I find that showers are the perfect time to visualize, especially if you shower in the dark. It doesn't particularly matter whether you visualize with your eyes open or closed. Once you get good at it, the visualization is natural even when your eyes are open. Also, even if you're terrible at drawing, a rough sketch of your wonderland always helps. I write as a hobby, and accurately describing my wonderland as if I was writing a novel helped me out a lot.

It may come as a surprise, but no, I haven't meditated before at all. I'll consider it, though, and may visualize in the shower. Never have I showered in the dark but, like I said, I'll consider! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
