Lucilyn: every skill in tulpamancy, we just learned by hearing it was possible and then doing what we figured would make the most sense to accomplish it (edited)

2:23 AM

we learned both imposition and switching pretty quickly like that

2:23 AM

imposition was literally just trying to make those senses appear in the real world

2:23 AM

it's something akin to imagining the senses but trying to tie them to your real ones

2:24 AM

to explain that in more detail would require us to make up more detail, because that's really as hard as we thought about it

Why do people want tulpas? And do tulpas only front when you let them? Is it like a spiritual thing or a psychological thing? Im very new and im curious

People have thoughts on both

3:48 AM

People want tulpae for many reasons

3:48 AM

like companionship

Khaos

like companionship

Thats why i joined, im curious on how the whole thing works

1. People usually want tulpas for company. Tulpas can also happen involuntarily, though. 2. They only front when you let them, as far as I know. 3. They can be either depending on how you view them. This server mostly views them as psychological, but you can discuss spiritual approaches in #metaphysics

There is a lot of people who make them on accident as well like with Imaginary friends as a example I can recall

So tulpas are different from dissociative disorders like DID and OSDD if im correct? Since those disorders are caused by severe trauma

yep or anything like

that

YEs.

3:49 AM

very much so

Why do people want tulpas?

Reasons vary, most commonly for companionship.

And do tulpas only front when you let them?

Depends, honestly. Tulpa systems tend to have less undesirable switches than disordered systems, but that's a given. A tulpa may be able to get control of a body depending on whether or not their trained to do so, but it depends.

Is it like a spiritual thing or a psychological thing?

Also highly subjective. Different people believe different things, but this server takes a mainly psychological stance.

Reply to: Why do people want tulpas? And do tulpas only front when you let them? Is it like a spiritual thing …

1. Can be a variety of reasons. Often companionship,iirc. 2. If they have enough experience with the front they could probably take it on their own. But this would require a lot of them fronting beforehand. 3. Depends on who you ask. I look at the psychological side

tulpas and alters are different but can co exist in the same system

52

They are different, since those disorders include other symptoms and most of the time caused by trauma

exactly

3:50 AM

Tulpas are also capable of producing tulpas

Yep

Kei Wendt

Exactly and the people in it are more or less connected to a extent

3:50 AM

in DID systems

a tulpa can do anything you can do, and you can do anything a tulpa can do. Y’all are functionally identical

Khaos

Tulpas are also capable of producing tulpas

So like- is it possible for that to get out of hand? If a tulpa has a tulpa and that one has another do you now have four people in your head

Yeah but ofc

There isn't much fundamentally different between you, the original, and a tulpa, other than their capabilities. In some cases, a tulpa can be on-par with their host's ability level, making them functionally the same as their host.

52

So like- is it possible for that to get out of hand? If a tulpa has a tulpa and that one has another do you now have four people in your head

they require energy and often than not Tulpae need a way to sustain themselves like attention from host

Well we don’t need to get into that. Tulpas can’t just make more tulpas without the host knowing. You aren’t going to just have them uncontrollably multiplying

True

But that usually comes with a time and effort.

Alright

Khaos

True

because they would only cause harm on themselves

52

So like- is it possible for that to get out of hand? If a tulpa has a tulpa and that one has another do you now have four people in your head

If you're not careful it can get out of hand, yes. But if you remember to control things as required it's fine It's not that hard to control

Possible, sure, but it's probably not going to happen. Most people don't go around making tulpas willy-nilly, I doubt the rest of the system would, either.

Reply to: So like- is it possible for that to get out of hand? If a tulpa has a tulpa and that one has another…

ideally y’all might want to vote on that first. You don’t want to live with an unhappy person all the time anyway, yeah? So lots of compromises happen.

Unless you have special capabilities but it all varies from person to person

True

3:52 AM

and Tulpas require sustenance

3:52 AM

too much time and effort

3:52 AM

so even if you had

3:52 AM

special capabilities to make one willy nilly

And they can be both fictional characters or like people you create? If you do intentionally create them-

if you can't keep them around fine than its a bad idea

52

Yep

yeah

Tulpas are intentionally created. They can be either.

52

Yes because fictives are beings based off the fictional characters

I was a mistake.

Although they deviate like a person

1

Is there like a specific way to create them?

I'm a fictive, but I'm also not a tulpa.

Atlas ˗ˏˋM&M´ˎ˗

Tulpas are intentionally created. They can be either.

People here have said before that tulpas can be unintentional though

52

Is there like a specific way to create them?

You can make them in many ways

Is it like reality shifting where you have different methods

Khaos

Although they deviate like a person

as they are people

52

Is there like a specific way to create them?

You can check out the guides pinned in this channel

nah. The most important thing is that you interact with them.

52 ↩️

Reply to: Is there like a specific way to create them?

That's true, generally, though, tulpas are intentionally willed beings.

There is many methods to make them such as with puppeting

52

Is it like reality shifting where you have different methods

Many different methods yeah but they mostly boil down to doing the same sort of thing

It's not like shifting, but there are different methods, and different people swear by different things.

52 ↩️

Reply to: Is it like reality shifting where you have different methods

True they all end up feeding to the tulpa

interact

Making them a part of your life is always a good way

exactly different things yes but they all feed into a tulpa

like taking a imaginary friend and chatting with them constantly

So if forget that i made one do they just disappear

No.

3:55 AM

they can last

Honestly, as long as you're doing the basics, you're fine, but if you didn't know how to make one as of now, I highly recommend researching significantly longer before doing anything more concrete. Saves you and the tulpa time and stress if you end up wanting to back out.

but they can starve

3:55 AM

unless if they are special

3:55 AM

or have means

3:56 AM

to recover energy

I know, rn im just asking basic questions to wrap my head around it

52

It's hard to forget since they talk in the background sometimes

Got it

that includes cannibalizing or eating mental constructs

3:56 AM

tho

That's metaphysical.

not really

3:56 AM

they are tulpas\

3:56 AM

still

3:56 AM

just not sentient

they may go dormant. It’s hard to completely erase a tulpa, So if you remember them later, they will still probably be there, though they may need help to become more consistently active and may have changed during the dormancy

52 ↩️

Reply to: So if forget that i made one do they just disappear

I in no way believe in "cannibalization" or "eating a tulpa" to get rid of them. I have no idea what you mean.

not exactly tulpas

Atlas ˗ˏˋM&M´ˎ˗

That's metaphysical.

What does that mean

but they are mental constructs

Spiritual/religious/paranormal. It's a catch-all term.

I say cannibalizing because I mean when mental constructs are consumed as think of it like this

Atlas ˗ˏˋM&M´ˎ˗

Spiritual/religious/paranormal. It's a catch-all term.

Oh ok

Tulpas and mental constructs are made the same

What Spectrum mentioned did not sound to me like a psychological approach to the practice, and is one I am highly unfamilliar with.
