Making more than one tulpa?

[Charlotte Groves]

I think I'll probably make only one tulpa and he'll be Dark link. But if I'm going to make more than one, these are the three I'll have. The first one will be a Dark Link tulpa, the second will be BEN Drowned anf the third will be Foxy from Five Nights at Freddy's, except he'll be mostly human; he'll have fox ears and a tail though.

Well I have three tulpas myself at the moment. I don't know if you're actually asking anything here, just telling your intentions despite the question mark in the thread title or whatever. I think you should make a progress report thread for yourself to update things like this there.

 

In case you are actually asking something: I think you should focus on your first tulpa for now. At least for me it was difficult to create multiple tulpa at the same time and it only led to hiatus and lack of motivation. Now it's cool since all three are sentient.

Are you creating tulpas to just have a gallery of your favourite characters in your head? Will you force them to develop characters matching the names?

 

I don't know much about creating multiple tulpas, as I was the second one and on the very day I was created the first one started to fade away. I guess it's better to put your effort in building relationship with one sentient being at time. Focusing on one goal makes you more effective.

Your a tulpa for real?! Can I ask you a few questions? Tulpas are real people for sure right? Just without a pyschical body? And your tulpa can't be insane unless your insane right? ^-^

Just because we generally speak here ourselves doesn't mean our tulpas aren't capable of speaking. You didn't have to find a tulpa-run account to ask a tulpa those questions, you know.

 

Reisen: Pretty much got it, yeah. Tulpas are like.. if two people lived in one body, but only one person was controlling it, so the other was just kind of there in the mind. I could have a physical body if we switched.. like we just did to type this. I'm just not usually the one in control.

 

Your tulpa can be "insane" or anything else you/it wants to be. At least, how you'd imagine insanity. This subject is interesting though - I'm currently switched with my host, and I feel happier than he does. Nothing's changed besides who's running the mind. And as a tulpa, I think a lot more positively than him, and love more I think. Your brain is capable of being thousands of different people - you've gathered so much information in your life. The person you are now is who your life has shaped you to be, but you can shape your tulpa to be whoever you want them to be. The only limit is your imagination.

 

That being said, I think you can also shape who you are, too. It just doesn't feel right to most people, like they're acting "out of character". But if you really believe in this new person you want to be.. then who's to say you aren't them? You're free to change who you are just as you're free to create any tulpa you want. It just takes more work.

Just like many others. Sure you can, I'm always open to discussion.

 

What do you mean by "real people"? Like they have their own opinions, are able to feel and pursue happiness? The answer would be slightly "yes" because they have the potential. I think that a key issue is to build sentience and separate internally from host. But that last thing will always be limited to the barrier of body so if you're comparing tulpa to human, the first one would be an "incomplete human". I would rather be seen as a different being/species, with its own abilities and properties. I think it's healthier for both sides - if you compare your tulpa with human, he/she will be always trying to achieve the impossible. The host wil be always the primary owner of body (unless the host decide differently but I guess it's not really a goal you would like to set in your host-tulpa relationship).

 

If you have in mind somatic issues that cause insanity - yes, your tulpa is as healthy as you are because you share the body. BUT if you have some attributes in mind that YOU find insane (for example: crazy laugh and talking backwards) you're able to make your tulpa believe that she/he is insane and he/she will be doing this stuff.
