Can disbelief prevent someone from making a tulpa

[Kiahdaj]

I know that truly believing in your tulpa's sentience, and existence for that matter can help expedite the creation process drastically.

And on that note, someone who doesn't believe, or is very skeptical would probably take much longer to finish his tulpa.

 

But can disbelief and skepticism downright prevent someone from ever having a fully developed tulpa, even if he follows all the steps (narration, visualization, etc.)?

[Chupi]

Probably depends how long they stick with it before concluding they were right and giving up.

[Frosty]

I suspect it can. Belief in your tupper is a very important aspect of the process, and it may actually BE the process.

[TulpaCouple]

Yes. Even if their tulpa manages to become sentient... If you are skeptical you will dismiss every form of contact they attempt to make. Head pressure on command? Placebo. Waking up at the time you asked your tulpa to get you up? Your subconscious just did that on its own. See them moving? Puppeting.

 

Someone could very easily set up barriers to prevent any of this from happening. Believing it is impossible would force it to be so. Your thoughts are your reality in your mind.

 

But if the person even had that small glimmer of hope, that piece looking for a real bit of sentience, they will notice more things they can't ignore, leading to more belief.

I think I will only add some thoughts to what TulpaCouple wrote. There is a big difference between knowing by words and knowing by experience. Belief is something obtained only through experience(but the important thing is that there is no difference between "real" and imagined experience). So following any of the steps of tulpa creation will give experience. You will end up with believing in tulpa. Because experiencing something creates belief without logic or conscious effort. The only problem I can think of is if you refuse to imagine and follow steps. Which is often a case(some people even come up with sophisticated logical explanations why they will not do it, can't and so on).

Yes, yes, yes.

For me, i am a very doubtful and sceptical person and i have a very hard time to get rid of this problem (not only Tulpa related, it effects my whole life).

And it almost caused me to give up my Tulpa.

 

For example, without people ensuring me that i wasn't parroting at all, maybe i would still not believe in my Tulpa being vocal.

But now, over the time, we have gathered some things to prove her sentience which i can hold onto, in case i get another "wave of doubts".

 

I'm still "chased" by doubts and have to put much effort into my own development to stay one foot ahead of them. Its pretty much the hardest part of Tulpacreation. For me, at least.

But as long as i can keep my doubts in check, we are able to make good progress. Hooray for that.

 

Maybe, some day, with help of her, i can overcome all this unnecessary crap.
