Other tulpa communities.

Its focused solely on tulpas but it still has discussion: tulpa.ru

Again, Logan, that's not what I meant.

Do you mean thought forms? or w/e they're called. I remember reading something about how thought forms are ranked by sentience and power [This is getting more into the occulty side of things though]:

 

From Least Sentient/[Powerful?] to most:

 

1. Sigils [Not sentient, more of an anchor to a particular mindset i.e. relaxed]

 

2. Servitors [small amount of sentience, similar to Tulpa but less free will. Host bosses the servitor around. A strong Servitor and a weak tulpa are indistinguishable]

 

3. Tulpas [sentient, more personal than servitor. Host and Tulpa work together.Strong Tulpa and a weak egregore are indistinguishable]

 

4. Egregore [Fully formed Consciousness, demons fall in this category. Host must work together with egregore often offering it something before it will help. When people say theyre summoning demons, usually it's the creation of an egregore]

 

5.Godforms [basically gods. You must worship/pray for them to grant you something. If you are in a religion the entity you pray to is a godform]

 

**Note: Godforms and Egregores are seen more in the occult world cough /x/ cough

 

I think every thoughtform is just a tulpa and it's usually expectation that changes its form/function.

Lanpc: That image has been bouncing around since this community got started on /x/.

I consider tulpa to be a subset of general multiplicity. An examination of the multiple scene and what people describe with their tulpa reveal that the two phenomena are nearly exactly the same, with the major exceptions being terms, and that one is not done intentionally, while the other is.

 

I've always considered the two communities very similar. The multiple community is actually where I started out at, but that was around ten years ago and their community was much more active then. Now it's dwindled down quite a bit; the most active forum I can find gets about one new topic every other week.

 

I would say the biggest differences between multiples and tulpamancers, besides intent, would be multiples place no focus on imposition and a lot of focus on possession/switching and inner worlds, and also it is more rare to see a multiple with only one or two "headmates" and more common to see 5, 10, 15+.

 

I think the idea of soulbonds is most like tulpa. With the soulbonding community, they usually create them intentionally, however they are almost always based on established fictional characters. Though it seems that once the soulbond has been created, they are free to go any direction they want with their personalities, which I guess would keep the soulbonds from feeling pressured into living up to certain expectations. The fictional characters themselves seem to be nothing more than templates.

 

I haven't looked into the Daemon community too much, probably because I've never read the books that the idea was based off of, so I can't say anything about it.

This fairly well. The multiple community is still active but its gone onto other different ways of interacting then say five years ago.

 

Also one difference is that most multiples tend to report to be or be naturally born or developed into multiples at a young age without taking measures to become one.

 

I haven't looked into the Daemon community too much, probably because I've never read the books that the idea was based off of, so I can't say anything about it.

Actually in the daemon community not all (or more and more it seems not slowly to going down to not even most) have read His Dark Materials . (Or didn't read them until after getting a daemon. Plus as the community has grown into its own the idea of having daemon has moved away from its original inspiration. Certain terms have remained the same but the ideas connected to them have shifted more and more over time.

 

Personally, I would consider the daemon community fairly similar to the tulpa community. Especially in the areas such as focus in imposition. (In fact due to the run with the tulpa community the daemon community has taken the term tulpaforcing into its own community to describe any practice with perfecting their 'projection' and personality of their daemon sense previously they never had a label for it and most simply called it 'perfecting projection' or something similar.)

I do know of a practice called splintering; it's less tulpae and more splintering up your conciousness into different personalities, traits, yadda yadda. A good example would be a male/female splinter set. It's aimed towards self-improvement and thought management, and there's a few other perks and sub-practices that branch off from it too.

 

They don't have a site and their irc is invite only because of trolling and complications within the community, but a very nice community altogether in my opinion. There's a lot to it I really don't understand so this post probably makes no sense whatsoever; they are tulpa-related though. Or, at least, comparable to tulpae.

[Guest Anonymous]

I'm not referring to things that are similar to tulpas, I'm talking about sites that are directly related to tulpas and tulpa creation. I can think of a few:

 

• tulpa.ru The Russian community.
  
• /r/tulpas The subreddit.
  
• Tulpacraft A 4chan style image board, possibly run by Bin/Charlotte.
  

 

Does anyone else know anymore sites directly related to tulpas?
