[sentience] Tulpa Journey Guide

[fennecgirl]

I'm just going to post this here so everyone can see; this journey was VERY helpful for us. Link finished his journey today, and he's MUCH happier now.

 

I'm just going to say, this has definitely helped him a lot.

Sarah left on a journey of.self-discovery about two months ago. Neither of us really seem to know what she's looking for, but she hasn't come back yet, and I've only seen her a few times since in forcing.

 

I'm considering going to look for her, but I feel it may take a while. So now I'm preparing a time for it when Juno and I can go.

I know the guide writer said that there doesn't have to be any symbolism in this journey... But the entire thing behind this "essence" IS symbolism. Can it work? Abso-fucking-lutely it can. When you think something is wrong with you, taking time alone, pondering and doing self-discovery is some powerful stuff for everyone, "essence" or not.

 

There is technically a huge guide in here, but when stripped of the symbolism (such as the actual "journey" itself, unless you count as just thinking about important stuff to be a "journey"), the thing deep down is just a tip in my eyes. Spend time alone, think and find yourself. That's what I'm reading and I don't even know if a guide could be written about that. There's some symbolism "journeys" to help to give you ideas, but I think they're just that. Symbolism, ideas, extra stuff. The actual thing is a tip and should go to tips, but you're free to disagree with that. You're also free to say this is just so full of symbolism to be approved and I can agree with that as well, as I'm a bit uncertain if everyone will read this the same way as I do. But I would approve it, knowing how helpful this thing (without the symbolism) is.

Blank vote.

Very reluctantly approving this for Tips.

 

A tulpa doing some self-discovery is great, but it's not something to force them toward, or even something requiring such elaborate symbolism or loaded expectations. If the tulpa feels a need to have some time for themselves, they're free to get some.

 

Also, the use of the word 'essence' for symbolic purposes is a bit unusual.

I feel like the four steps outlined as a method in CH3, or maybe even just the first one of those, would be fine. It's super symbolism-heavy but at least the writer says that it isn't necessary. Guess I'll approve for Tips.

Approved for tips and tricks. It's not really good enough to be guide material IMO
