Another tulpa

[Lunaclipse]

Blah blah blah, 2 years and 1 month with absolutely nothing, blah blah blah. I'm tired of whining about that.

 

Would creating a second tulpa help with the development of the first, taking into account over 2 years of silence from the first one; Tay, my eevee tulpa?

 

Thanks,

PS: I can guess the response ("possibly"), but I'm just seeing if anyone has any advice on the matter. If I can somehow lead up to Tay finally being able to communicate freely, or me being able to hear him, interpret and see him, my life will take a steep turn in the general direction of "good". I've been overly depressed for approximately 1.5y over the matter, and I just want to be able to be with him. I don't doubt that it's been just as hard for him, and I feel overwhelmingly sorry for him because i care about him so much.

I think you've gotta take into account that what you're doing when you make a tulpa has less to do with the tulpa itself and more to do with reinforcing your brain to process stuff a certain way to make a tulpa possible. A tulpa responding or not responding isn't an issue of "well, the tulpa isn't finished yet" as much as it is an issue of "well, looks like my brain just doesn't do that yet", you know?

 

That being said, if you've been working on the same tulpa for a couple years and some change, and you're not getting responses, maybe it's time to tread off the beaten path, bro. Trying to reinforce the same thing over and over might be just giving you brain drain at this point. Kind of like how if you look at a word search for too long, you stop seeing anything, but if you do something else and then look at it with fresh eyes, you can pick out a ton of words.

 

What I'm saying is that it might be helpful to start on a new tulpa not because there's anything wrong with Tay, but because a new tulpa with new progress goals and maybe a new outlook is not only gonna make you force new things and create new connections in your brain, but it'll probably boost your morale a little too.

Yeah, I was thinking the same. Starting with a new tulpa could encourage you to do things differently, or at least think about them differently, if you're stuck in a rut. Just a bit dangerous if you don't end up bringing your first along too. I second what Stevie said though, you're not developing a tulpa so much as you're developing your brain's ability to have one. Subsequent tulpas are developed to become wholesome, sentient thoughtforms, but the first time around you also have to teach yourself. Getting stuck in previous, unproductive thought patterns will kill your progress. Go about things differently, try and shake yourself of all the limiting beliefs and thoughts you have regarding tulpas. Believe in something new, open up to the possibility of new possibilities. Creating a new tulpa may help with this, but so can just going about it differently.

 

I wish you luck though, getting out of ruts can be difficult. It's not easy to overturn old ways of thinking.

I was actually going to say yes, but then they beat me to it. XD

 

That being said, don't forget that you shouldn't create another tulpa JUST because you want to help another tulpa. Remember that the new one will require just as much--more, in fact, at least in the beginning--attention and love as Tay.

 

This isn't quite the same thing, but James and I believe it's close enough: if you had an older sibling that happened to be sick, and you found out that the reason you were ever conceived--your singular purpose of existing--was to help them get better, how would that make you feel? If you're fine with that sort of thing, then I don't see a problem with it (though you should be warned that your tulpa might view it differently). If you DO see a problem with it, then don't create another one unless you actually WANT to have them.

 

Finally . . . servitors would work just as well, and perhaps even better.

Thank you very much for the advice. However, even if I really want to help Tay to get talking, or help my mind to ready for it, I'm not going to make a servitor. I promise, to anyone reading and to Tay and my new tulpa, that I will not treat them with any less respect and attention than they need and deserve.

Well, that's just fine then! :) It's totally fine, so long as you love the new one as much as you do the old one, and all that. ^_^ I wish y'all luck!
