I don't understand...

Okay. Anyone else with a diff method?

Chupi already listed my method.

[FigN01]

I've been focusing my eyes onto the open space directly in front of me that Uzo would be occupying during sessions, rather than staring ahead at the surrounding room. With everything else blurred and my attention on his image, his form feels more dense, 3-dimensional, and just there even though I can't see him fully imposed yet. It's like he has his body, but it's just invisible. I think with time and a combination of other methods, he'll come through better.

My eyes refuse to do what FigN01 describes for more than about a quarter second. If I focus on empty space, my eyes drift back to the next object.

[*]endoalir & JD1215: Enter a really deep daydream state and use wizard powers to make whatever you imagine override your real vision.

 

Best method. Well, imho. If you're a wizard i mean.

Has anyone here closed their eyes. imagined their tupper and tried to touch them? when i did that i couldnt feel her but i felt some really wierd warmth and almost texture.

 

it was tingly and strange like putting your hand near a warm toaster

[Chupi]

I do that open-eyed sometimes. I get warmth and imagined texture, rarely faint tingles. It helps me get used to how she fits into the real world.

For those of you who have successfully imposed, what was the process like? Not the method, but your progress. When were you first able to see your tulpa? How long had you been trying? Did it come as a surprise when it finally worked or did you feel on the verge for awhile before hand?

 

Imposition frustrates/perplexes me immensely.

[Chupi]

I don't have it working yet, but the few glimpses I've seen were quite surprising and made my brain wtf, causing the hallucination to disappear instantly. Strangely it's typically right in the middle of my vision, while these things are supposed to start out working best in the corner of the eye.

 

The first time caught me completely off-guard. I'd been halfheartedly working on imposition for between a couple weeks and a month. I had imagined Lyra sitting in a chair facing me, not expecting to see anything, and I didn't see anything. Later, I went away for a minute to get food, not even thinking about how she was supposed to be in that chair. On my way back, I saw the back of her head above the back of the chair, for a split second. For the tiniest of moments, it felt natural, I suppose like it's supposed to be there. Then almost immediately, the "wait, what" moment and it was gone.

 

It sort of feels like a mind's eye image so vivid it crosses over into real vision, obscuring or blending with what's really there. It helps to be in a sort of meditative or daydream mental state, and expecting something to appear all but ensures that it won't.
