Tulpa Development

[Zeromancer]

I've just seen the movie "Fight Club" and I've noticed how similiar Tyler was to a tulpa. How he developed. So I asked myself, what if a tulpa develops characteristics beyond the personalities you gave it when you began tulpaforcing? I googled this and found this quote.

 

Don't be so arrogant. Tulpa's develop more and more on their own until they acquire a rather devious personality and turn your life into a nightmare.

 

I've read about them before. Monks in Tibit learn how to create them, usually taking months and months of focused concentration... but I'm sure that modern psychotronic machines could amplify the mental creation process.

 

Either way, it's extremely dangerous and stupid. This isn't something for normal people to meddle with. Unless you happen to be a shaman who is an expert in conjuring and dispelling spiritual power, don't do it.

 

And yes, I'm serious. There is some screwed up stuff out there, and this is one of them. This isn't like jerking around with a ouiji board by candlelight- this is full immersion into something beyond conventional psychological and physical process and will probably result in you going insane and worse (but of course, you won't think that you're insane but you'll be the only person experiencing what you've sown).

 

I've read the FAQ, understand that tulpa's don't exist and that they can't hurt you, but this is certainly something to think about. I don't want my tulpa to become something else than I intended to. I don't mind development, but becoming vengeful doesn't really appeal me.

 

Is this possible?

No one on this forum has gone insane (that I know of). Just don't worry about the bad things and the bad things won't happen.

If you put nothing but love and care into your tulpa, it should never form a "devious" personality. Beings don't grow to dislike you for no reason, after all.

I think the only way to have a bad Tulpa is if you are a bad person or a psychopath.

 

I think that a Tulpa will have nearly the same morals as you

Nothing spiritual about dem tuppers.

From everyone I've heard of, they won't truly turn against you unless maybe if you treat them really badly. They might be a prankster, a dick, or otherwise annoying, but they won't be able to do much more to you than an annoying person who can't touch you.

 

NOTE: The "annoying person who can't touch you" thing is more or less what FAQ_Man said once. I'm not so sure now, given the strength of some of the emotional responses I've gotten. They've all been good emotions, or sad in response to some movies, but it would be pretty dang bad if she were to send me really negative emotions this strong. Additionally, I think Jake once got Vinyl to kick him hard and actually felt pain. Still, you ultimately have the ability to kill them (by forcefully ignoring them for long periods), and they know this.

And then take over your life, turning evil, creating a terrorist organization, and plotting the downfall of the entire Western civilization's economy with a multi-level terrorist attack before making you shoot yourself in the face to kill him so he doesn't cause any more damage?

Hey, I wouldn't try to kill him. I'd be right there with him.
