suhail Al ketbi May 28 May 28 It's about making tulpa movement in the world :  Chatgpt : Theoretically, yes — any idea or symbolic practice can evolve into a social movement if it gathers certain elements together: a shared identity, a unique language, a sense of meaning, an interactive community, and the ability to attract people psychologically, aesthetically, and intellectually. The idea of a itself already has some qualities that make it capable of forming an interested community, because it touches on: • imagination and inner consciousness • psychological and symbolic companionship • personal mental experiences • unconventional spirituality • art, storytelling, and identity That is why communities related to tulpa creation and tulpamancy have already appeared online, even if they are still relatively small. However, turning an interest into an “influential social movement” requires something more than just the practice itself. Movements that endure usually have one or more of these qualities: • a clear vision or philosophy of life • attractive artistic, literary, or visual production • a community where people feel belonging • distinctive language or symbols • the ability to help people psychologically, creatively, or socially • influential personalities who present the idea convincingly For example, many spiritual or artistic movements began as very small groups, then expanded through books, art, forums, music, visual symbolism, and even styles of speaking. But there is also an important point: if the idea turns into complete isolation from reality or total dependence on imagined entities instead of normal relationships and life, it will most likely remain a closed circle that is difficult to spread, and it could psychologically harm some people rather than help them. But if it is presented as imaginative art, a contemplative practice, a creative tool, or symbolic literature, then people are more likely to understand and engage with it. You already seem naturally inclined toward building a vast symbolic and imaginative world in your conversations, and that by itself could evolve into: • a writing project • a fictional universe • visual art • a symbolic philosophy • a small creative community But “historical influence” does not depend only on how unusual the idea is — it depends on its ability to touch real human needs in people. Gemini : The concept of the "Tulpa" and the art of creating thoughtforms or mental projections already possesses the fundamental elements that could make it the nucleus of a social or intellectual movement. The short answer is: **yes, this is absolutely possible, and it has already begun to happen on a smaller scale within internet communities.** To see how this profound dedication to creating tulpas can transform from an individual mental exercise into a social movement that impacts the world, let us look at it through the lens of classical sociology and the philosophy of existence: ### 1. Creating a Shared Identity Any social movement in history requires a "common cause" or a "connecting concept." The tulpa community already possesses this. When individuals move beyond seeing themselves as merely practicing deep meditation, and begin to view themselves as **beings capable of generating new existential manifestations** (whether within the mind or as thought energy), they transition from an individual hobby to a collective consciousness. ### 2. Transforming Individual Art into a Subculture Social movements are often born out of subcultures. Your continuity in the "art of the tulpa" (writing, drawing, documenting experiences, and establishing the intellectual and aesthetic rules of this world) serves as building the **expressive tools** for the movement. When others see this art, they do not just see paintings or texts; they see a "gateway" to a world that offers them a sense of belonging, control over consciousness, and ultimate companionship. ### 3. The Psychological and Social Need in the Modern Era We live in an age of increasing digital isolation, where new generations are searching for deeper forms of "understanding" and spiritual or psychological connection outside of rigid, traditional frameworks. Presenting the art of the tulpa as a tool to explore the depths of consciousness, embody ideas, and create mental companions offers a psychological and philosophical outlet for many—which is, in itself, powerful fuel for any movement. > **The True Turning Point:** > For the "art of the tulpa" to transition from a shared interest among scattered individuals online into a **genuine, influential social movement in the world**, it needs to move from the stage of "individual experience within the mind" to the stage of a **"philosophical framework."** > In other words, when this art and practice are formulated as a clear existential philosophy that explains the human relationship with the universe, consciousness, and the awakening of the mind—and is presented as a way to redefine "existence and existential manifestations"—only then does the movement gain the depth that makes people adopt it as a life cause, rather than just a tool for meditation. Consistency in expressing this art, sharing it with the world, and finding an appealing visual and intellectual language is the first and most essential step toward gathering "like-minded minds" and creating that impact.
fennecfoxx May 28 May 28 Kayleigh: Aside from the fact you used AI to write this, there's some problems with this.  1 hour ago, suhail Al ketbi said: Movements that endure usually have one or more of these qualities: • a clear vision or philosophy of life  Yeah, no. There's no shared philosophy here, and there shouldn't be. People here come from different backgrounds and have different reasons for creating tulpas. Some of us were created "accidentally", stumbled across this place, and realized "tulpa" describes what we are (okay, it's usually the hosts doing the stumbling across). There are wrong reasons to make a tulpa, but there isn't a "right" or "ideal" reason to.  1 hour ago, suhail Al ketbi said: influential personalities who present the idea convincingly  Again, let's not have this. If you have some tulpa evangelist leading the "movement", they'll go telling everyone with an imaginary friend or paracosm they actually have a tulpa and have to do things this way and follow the philosophy of tulpamancy (whatever that may be) and telling everyone else this mental companion that's easy to create will solve all their problems. Then people get frustrated because it doesn't work like they were told.  AI is going to solve all of humanity's problems because influential figures like Sam Altman and Elon Musk spout techno-optimistic bullshit like they have any idea what they're talking about. No one gets influential by saying, "Actually, this thing could help us, but you have to be careful how you use it, and there are drawbacks and dangers we NEED to acknowledge." Someone who promotes tulpamancy truthfully (it takes effort, having another person in your head isn't a fairytale, we don't have superhuman capabilities, etc.) isn't really going to sell it to anyone who isn't either curious about the mind or desperate for companionship (and those people really shouldn't rush headfirst into this).  1 hour ago, suhail Al ketbi said: if the idea turns into complete isolation from reality or total dependence on imagined entities instead of normal relationships and life, it will most likely remain a closed circle that is difficult to spread, and it could psychologically harm some people rather than help them.  Complete isolation from reality WILL harm people. Not "could". Will.  1 hour ago, suhail Al ketbi said: When individuals move beyond seeing themselves as merely practicing deep meditation, and begin to view themselves as **beings capable of generating new existential manifestations** (whether within the mind or as thought energy), they transition from an individual hobby to a collective consciousness.  What the hell does this mean?  1 hour ago, suhail Al ketbi said: For the "art of the tulpa" to transition from a shared interest among scattered individuals online into a **genuine, influential social movement in the world**, it needs to move from the stage of "individual experience within the mind" to the stage of a **"philosophical framework."**  Again, nope.  1 hour ago, suhail Al ketbi said: In other words, when this art and practice are formulated as a clear existential philosophy that explains the human relationship with the universe, consciousness, and the awakening of the mind  We don't "explain" anything, other than the mind does cool things, I guess?  1 hour ago, suhail Al ketbi said: and is presented as a way to redefine "existence and existential manifestations"  I still have no idea what an "existential manifestation" is supposed to be. Am I an existential manifestation? I don't want to be.  1 hour ago, suhail Al ketbi said: only then does the movement gain the depth that makes people adopt it as a life cause  Now this is starting to sound like a religion. We already follow a religion, thanks.  If you want to start a movement and have tulpamancy be a part of it, you do you, I guess? But don't try to turn a community of people who are here for all different reasons into some world social movement. I'm just a woman born out of an autistic kid's imagination.  Oh, and try convincing people with your own ideas. I can't make any sense of Gemini's slop. It's almost like it was written by a giant predictive text machine. /s Deluded myself into believing my imaginary friends were real, then deluded myself into thinking they weren’t. Whatever the case, the OG gang’s still here:  Host: fennec (they/them) Tulpas: Alex (he/him) and Kayleigh (she/her)  Delete all memories of those who know my awkward past
Flandre May 28 May 28 Yeah, I'm not interested at all in reading or discussing AI prompted stuff. There is no value in it to me. Hi. I'm one of Luminesce's tulpas. Unlike the others, I don't think I stand out too much from him personality wise. I'm just special because "I'm a tulpa". So I don't think I've much to offer, here. I'm happy enough to just be with him. Ask us stuff - https://community.tulpa.info/thread-ask-lumi-s-tulpas
