Imagining a Tulpa

[Linkzelda]

I did about

, and I was more concerned of getting the information down rather than wondering if they're being puppeted, or not. I can barely keep up at times simply because things are just happening like boom boom boom. I think the struggle isn't so much about whether or not their existence is being puppeted, but potentially mistaking basic processes one's mind utilizes to render mind's eye visualization, along with the hurdle to refer to it easily, and because you can't seem to have an easy time easily referring to that imagination, the presumption that their existence is puppeted comes into question.

 

So, maybe a potential remedy for the apprehension is to simply find activities that can progressively augment one's cognition to where they don't have to question the nuances of how they arrive to certain levels of visualization, and any other senses; psychosomatic, imaginary, whatever. Then, if you can refer to visualization via mind's eye, imposition, etc., then you can question if you're consciously fabricating those events, or if there's predispositions at play that serves as a tool for you to enjoy those experiences with them.

 

You could be questioning your competency being something that could be instant and automatic vs. slow and progressive, and feel that their existence is solely contingent on that, which is a matter of disposition. But the same question could arise if you do see instantaneous thoughts coming at your beck and call, and you're left wondering if you conditioned yourself for that. Whatever the case, maybe the notion that predispositions utilized to render those experiences to you isn't necessarily the conscious you, but just the inner depths of your mind that's a blank canvas that can be utilized to create meaningful experiences with them.

 

TL;DR: You start questioning the processes and the lack of being able to refer to them as your sole reason in validating whatever mode of implicit sentience, qualia, etc. that they have, and then you're left wondering what's wrong with your mind rather than the tulpa in question. So, git gud.

Wow, does that mean you said that to your tulpa for 10 hours without any response, just to give it info? I could never do that, not unless her life depended on it. Also, I think I can imagine my tulpa, I have given her a form, and certainly believe she exists. I mean, I decided that I'm creating a new being and that was that.

Um, I answered the first para, but after that I kind of didn't understand much. I tried reading it three times, but still...not a clue.

Guys, had a few more questions and decided to ask em here rather than make a new thread. Say, I want to take my tulpa with me to a beach. Know that we have no wonderland, but stay in a black space with a single sofa for her, and I plan that if we have to go anywhere, we will just create it, explore the whole place, and at the end of the day, clean slate for tomorrow. My question is, I'm not sure if I'm puppeting or not, and it's only my 8th day, I want to take her to places to have fun. So, how do I know if I'm puppeting her or is she moving on her own? I've visualized her moving around, but always with me as a controller.

Also, when I ask her a question, how do I know if the 'yes', or 'no' comes from her or my mind? Say I ask her 'Are you a tulpa?'. Will she say yes of her own accord, or because I want to hear a yes ill get one from myself.

And finally, whenever I visualize her, I can't do it instantly, but have to visualize her face, then body and finally legs. Then only, can I visualize her entire. Is this normal, or should I be insta-visualizing her completely. And I always visualize her sitting on her couch. Is that ok?

 

I'm gonna have to google a lot of words in Linkzeldas post, many of them are new to me.

Your the only one who knows if you are puppeting or not, since it's your mind, it's not bad to puppet or control a tulpa in the beginning even if it might not be wished for, getting used to have a tulpa can take time.

If you feel it is you replying to yourself or controling your tulpa, then it probably is you, but fear not, I say continue to puppet but give your tulpa the chance to act on it's own, you will get there eventually.

The more you visualize the better you will get, take your time, you don't have to be able to insta visualize your tulpa, everyone is different, you do what feels easy for you, to visualize everyday will for sure help you get a lot better at it.
