Wwaaaaaa??

I dont understand, is this a tulpa creation guide or a search for the origins of tulpa in tibet? Or both?

At first I was quite incredulous at this publishing, yet now I feel much more optimistic. This work may shed light on the Nipponese tulpa scene and its history, which may lend knowledge and insight to our endeavours here.

 

I also noticed a curious phrase in the above translation of the book's summary - I can barely grasp what it's conveying, yet at one point I think it describes the tulpa phenomenon like "a shadow of God". This is very interesting to me, as I've been thinking about how tulpas can be related not only to Tibetan practices, but also that of Gnosticism. If there's ever a proper translation of the book, I'd like to read it.
