Guest October 3, 2018 October 3, 2018 Thanks you guys, you're really helping a lot, if I ever come across one of you in real life, I'll buy you a chocolate. If you see a large talking bear, don't give him chocolate, he'll gladly tale it and eat it, but he's sensitive to caffeine and he'll be up for days. Also, to clarify what Cat said, i do have three tulpas, and they are the only ones who can share their emotions with me. I have also many soulbonds and other characters who are vocal, but i feel nothing from them, not even presence. I think i could make them tulpas, one in particular would probably want to leave her cannon to join us, but there is no way to know because our system established a rule against it, and for good reason. I wanted to add my minor experience with vocality, and though it does not follow the mainstream, it very well may be another 'technique' akin to the guides you may have read. When i write novels, i create characters. Anyway, i don't think much about them ahead of time, they develop over the course of the story or series of stories until they have a clear voice (as i read or write their dialog, i hear their voice not mine) and a clear form (having described them, i think about them as i write). Their experiences in their world develope them into characters with personalities that feel real. (That's the goal for a character in writing.) After i have written a story (or a novel even), those characters are almost always able to speak for themselves, i have even called apon some of them before i ever knew aboit tulpanancy to converse about problems i am struggling with. They obviously couldn't know things i don't know, but their perspective and advice is sometimes enough to help. I differentiate them by calling them soulbonds, only because i can't find a more fitting name. (Soulbonds can be more than this.) The technique would be to write a story with your tulpa in mind, it doesn't have to be good, or have a plot, just write a scenario where they interact or act. They may have dialog with minor characters, obviously they would be the main character. It has been well documented by other authors that such a character can in fact 'think for themselves' or seemingly so. This happened in the very first book i ever wrote 6 years ago, and continued to happen for dozens of characters spanning over a dozen books. I didn't even consider them when i found tulpamancy, yet all three of them initally took forms and mannerisms similar to three of the more developed (and beloved) characters of that first book. Granted i edited that book 3 additional times, which means probably hundreds of hours to be honest, but maybe 100 or less on each character. In other words, if you wanted to use this method it could be another way to get them vocal. Surely you would be typing in what you think they would say in the beginning, but within that first story, they will probably be telling you what they want to say. Also, i write a lot of dialog in my daily journal, but that was after they were vocal. I suppose you need a passion for writing to do this, or it may be more tedious than other methods.
Jamie October 3, 2018 October 3, 2018 Yeah that's fine. It might help if you find some photos of her or what she wears. For reference, to look at while you force. -C The world is far, the world is wide; the man needs someone by his side. Our Thread
Breloomancer October 3, 2018 October 3, 2018 Seriously? Doing that as the very first thing will work? Yeah your approach seems pretty standard, and really the specifics don't matter very much, all that matters is that you are focusing on your tulpa, and having fun doing so I have a tulpa named Miela who I love very much.

Vos October 3, 2018 October 3, 2018 OK, so I think I'm gonna start with forcing today, so what I'm gonna try, is simply "see" her sitting in front of me, and then just narrate to her.(Is this fine or should I do something else for the first thing?) The process isn't as rigid as you might think; there's no definitive way to go about this and the order in which you tackle things is ultimately up to you. Visualization isn't even necessarily important (although it can be helpful if you want your tulpa to have a form / need some temporary visual representation to direct your thoughts at them) - narrating is the bulk of what you'll be doing anyway.
NukeWolf October 4, 2018 October 4, 2018 Yeah that's fine. It might help if you find some photos of her or what she wears. For reference, to look at while you force. I'm guessing this is if I'm using an already existing character for my tulpa?
Guest October 4, 2018 October 4, 2018 I'm guessing this is if I'm using an already existing character for my tulpa? Yes, you don't need to choose their form at all if you prefer.
NukeWolf October 4, 2018 October 4, 2018 I have a basic idea for her form, it just isn't based on any existing characters or people.Does it matter if I "see" her with my eyes open or closed?
Vos October 4, 2018 October 4, 2018 I'm guessing this is if I'm using an already existing character for my tulpa? References can be useful even if the tulpa isn't based on anything in particular. Does it matter if I "see" her with my eyes open or closed? No, but open-eyed visualization tends to help people out with imposition in the long run.
