Thats technically by the subconscious right?

if you want to call it that then sure, but the difference with a tulpa is your attributing it to another mind entity, which exists because you believe it exists theres no difference between something being made up in your mind and it existing in your mind, pretty much everything in your mind is made up

Tulpa: A secondary train of thought you create through practice and training that has its own identity and its responses are autonomous and created subconsciously. Meaning the thoughts seem as if they were from another being and entirely unintentional from you. This is possible because basically you're associating a particular line of thought to something external and as the association gets deeper the process becomes automatic and you can keep making more associations to flesh out the identity of those thoughts more, which becomes a Tulpa.

KiTTiKaTTy( •̀ .̫ •́ )✧ BOT 4/7/2023 7:50 PM
when you are raised, your environment and parents build your identity. you might have separate identities for separate group of friends. in my view tulpa or any headmate is an identity like this, separated or dissociated from you to the point that it doesn't feel like you at all

berockly (TTG) 4/7/2023 7:50 PM
and by external, it means external from you, not necasarily something physical

So like it's a skill you develop
7:51 PM
So if you consider your subconscious you then the tulpa would just be a facet of yourself depending on how you all see it and perceive it right?

you can look at it as training your mind to think from a different lense, while associating the thinking from the different lense as a separate thing from you
