Qookie May 6, 2012 Share May 6, 2012 An endeavor to catalogue the strange terms we use and their meanings. Post freely if you wish to add or contest definitions! I will edit this first post accordingly.deviation: variations and alterations that occur to a tulpa's personality and form during creation, seemingly against or independent of your own concious willemotional response: when an already sentient tulpa responds to external stimuli or something within your brain with a wave of emotion as opposed to speaking. This is usually just something that happens prior to the tulpa becoming vocalform: the physical appearance and shape of a tulpa once visualized or impositionedhologram: a static visualization that can be called upon at will, but displays no independence, will, or tulpa-like traitshost: an individual with a tulpa. Preferred by some, considered rude or demeaning by others.imaginary friend/imaginary companion: the broad class of mental entities which include tulpa and servitorsimposing/imposition: attempting to visualize a tulpa in the real world, beginning to hallucinate them into your visionmetaphysical: the school of thought that suggests tulpa are a supernatural, paranormal or otherwise non-mundane apparition or hallucination brought about by means beyond modern sciencenarration/narrating: talking directly to or with a tulpa about day-to-day activities and events as a means of reinforcing their existence, often done as a key part of personality developmentparroting: to directly and consciously speak on behalf of your tulpa, to put words in their mouth. Not advised, is considered to lead to the development of a servitor and delay tulpa developmentpsychological: the school of thought that suggests tulpa are a mundane function of the human psyche that can be scientifically understood, analyzed and accepted within the bounds of modern sciencepuppeting/puppeteering: to directly and consciously visualize responses of your tulpa to your actions and words. Not advised, is considered to lead to the development of a servitor and delay tulpa developmentservitor: a tulpa-like entity with seemingly no willpower, volition or sentience of its own; a mental puppet that may seem to act independently but acts only as a servant to its mastersubconscious: used to refer to the part of the mind the tulpa exists within; speculated to be the Freudian subconscious by some, but just as often used to mean the colloquial "without conscious input"thoughtform: english translation of tulpa from Tibetan, typically used to refer to a tulpa of magical, supernatural or other metaphysical origintraits: the collection of personality factors that make up a tulpa. Some define intended traits at the beginning of tulpa creation, others allow them to emerge naturally during the narration process.tulpa: See guide; "What is a Tulpa?"tulpa/tulpae/tulpas: one of the three disputed pluralizations of "tulpa"tulpaforcing: a dedicated span of time, usually 30 minutes to 2 hours, set aside to concentrate and focus on the development of a tulpa's personality and traits, narration to the tulpa, and sensory training. Considered by many to be a form of meditation.tulpamancer: "one who speaks to constructs". An individual with a tulpa. Preferred by some, considered unserious or mocking by others.wonderland: a visualized environment that is peaceful, relaxing, and suitable for tulpaforcing, narrating and holding a conversation with a tulpavisualize: to picture with the mind's eye; usually done with the eyes closed, unless moving on to impositionI know there's more than these, please suggest missing terms as they become apparent. ちぇえええええええええええええええええええええええええええええ～ん！ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest May 6, 2012 Share May 6, 2012 The subconscious definition shouldn't sound too much like it's just "something the tulpa uses." I was now about to quote something from Wikipedia, until I discovered that they're just as confused as to what the exact definition should be. Personally, I'd say it like another guy whose name I forgot once said: the subconscious is just a mold of conscious thoughts. Fix the wording of the second sentence in the traits definition. Link to the guides section in the tulpa definition. Not necessary, but neat. Fix the tulpaforcing definition; it's not only about personality and traits. It encompasses narration and training of the senses, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B_P May 6, 2012 Share May 6, 2012 Narration is also a part of the personality phase of tulpaforcing, yes? You narrate to the tulpa about its traits and whatnot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uguubee May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 I'd object to the definition of metaphysics that you're using. Classically it's a school of philosophy questioning the basic elements of existence, the fundamental nature of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[*]metaphysical: the school of thought that suggests tulpa are a supernatural, paranormal or otherwise non-mundane apparition or hallucination brought about by means beyond modern science I think Qookie's definition fit's topic of tulpa wery well. But any way, it's good to be specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qookie May 7, 2012 Author Share May 7, 2012 Added 'deviation', updated subconscious, traits, narration and tulpa. I'd like to improve 'metaphysics', but your definition of "questioning the basic elements of existence" isn't at odds with "means beyond modern science". ちぇえええええええええええええええええええええええええええええ～ん！ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAQ man May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 The thing is, metaphysics is like a combination of philosophy, pseudo-science and bullshit. For our purposes. And that's usually the context the term is used in around the internet anyways. Read Cable's guide. He claims to be a metaphysics guy. That's what its about in this context. Stuff like the astral realm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesleeve May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 How do we call the Tulpa host? How do we call the levels/stages a Tulpa goes through until it is fully established? emotional response "going vocal" (kind of a big deal since this is the ultimate validation that your methods are working, so it should be in there imho) EDIT: also - parroting What is a Tulpa?
