Confessions of a Poorly Trained Tulpa

[Guest Anonymous]

Our new tulpa typing or "channeling Melian" plan:

 

Slow down! Slow down and think and contemplate more before typing just what ever blather babble thoughts or emotional reactions comes to our collective minds. Slow down and read for content. Slow it the freak fug down!

 

This is my week. Tulpa week. And I am going to slow it down for both of us. You will see. My butt will be on slow cruise and just chill mode. Now see he wants to say that is impossible for Melian cause I get too excited and stuff worse than him even. But I will show all of you that Melian can slow cruise down through Take It Easy Slowville. I won't get too excited and I won't get banned this time for this tulpa week.

Davie and I thank everyone who responded in a productive way. Thank you to the folks on Tulpa Info for helping peeps like Davie and I make that journey of discovery. When that happens it truly is a scientific forum, helpful to those who would want to learn about tulpamancy and grow. A scientific discussion forum can only thrive if there is discussion between members of various levels of background and knowledge and experience. David and I have benefited so much! There is no way we could mention all of the things we have learned from members, that would be a long list indeed!

 

NOTE: This is Davie's final position on the question of sentience after seven months of debate --> https://community.tulpa.info/thread-formal-apology-to-tulpa-info-members-i-was-wrong

 

Here is just some of the Critical Things we have learned about:

1. Aspects. terminology and techniques related to thoughtforms and tulpamancy, including the informal tulpamancy code of ethics.

 

2. We learned how Jungian psychology relates to tulpamancy and the techniques of Active Imagination and also about the psychological concept of Illusion of Independent Agency experienced by authors.

 

3. We learned about daemons and soulbonds and natural multiples, being referred to forums dedicated to them from members here.

 

“The Living Library: For those whose characters come alive - and the

characters themselves.” http://www.soulbonding.org/

 

4. We learned about Maladaptive Day Dreaming (which was HUGE) thank you Stevie! Maladaptive Day Dreaming: https://community.tulpa.info/thread-maladaptive-daydreaming?highlight=Maladaptive+day+dreaming

 

5. We learned a lot about lucid dreaming techniques related to tulpamancy and forcing. Cool stuff! https://community.tulpa.info/thread-misc-a-guide-on-lucid-dreaming-and-tulpas-v1-1

 

6. From sites we were referred to, such as soulbonding.org, we were able to learn about median systems and blending.

 

7. With everything we learned we were able to complete the Book of Melian containing a lot of what people taught us here http://melianofmist.deviantart.com/art/The-Book-of-Melian-509605338

 

8. The concept of "philosophical zombies"

 

9. We learned about tulpa creativity and forcing through collaborative art! https://community.tulpa.info/thread-forcing-forcing-via-collaborative-art?pid=128993#pid128993

 

10. Melian is apparently sentient and has hidden thoughts, hidden memories and hidden motivations: https://community.tulpa.info/thread-thank-you-tulpa-info-we-have-learned-so-much?pid=146316#pid146316

 

11. I learned about direct realism vs. indirect realism (epistemological dualism): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_and_indirect_realism

 

12. We learned about Autonomous Sensory Memory Response https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_sensory_meridian_response

 

13. We read a lot! We were referred to a lot of literature (thank you Sushi and Stevie) and learned about Alexandra David Neel and J.H. Brennan, Carl Jung and the history of the concept of thoughtforms and tulpas and the theosophical society. We read the following books and article that others referred us to, most of which are on our book shelf at home:

 

Magic and Mystery in Tibet (1932) by Alexandra David Neel

Magical Use of Thoughtforms by J.H. Brennan

Magic and Mysticism in Tibet by J.H. Brennan

Tibetan Magic and Mysticism by J.H. Brennan

Thought-Forms and Hallucinations by Chidambaram Ramesh

Thank you Tulpa Info!

Thank you, Melian. There are some books there that I haven't read yet. I'll have to look into them.

Thanks Sushi,

 

We are glad to have inspired a "senior member," as you have told us many times before, you learned from Mistod and I just as much as we learned from you and just as Linkzelda said in his farewell message that he gained as well from the fellowship. Our writing, although rambling sometimes and sometimes full of superfluous fluff, does inspire interesting discussion and even discovery on this forum.

 

OH, we forgot to mention learning about tulpa creativity and forcing through collaborative art! Super important! I will add that in.

Vodka is made from potatoes. Those who drink too much vodka can meet the potato people in their heads.
