Tulpa.info - tulpa-questions

like, we all have biases towards mechanics and ways of thinking. We all have tendencies for one tulpa to do X while the other does Y.

So it's hard to answer these questions with more than a "yeah, could go either way"

3:18 AM

I think that, as you get a feel for who you are and how you think, you'll sort of know how things will work out.

Also, I left her as a pretty blank slate as for form and personality, I want her to be able to have freedom in who she is. But if you suggest I try to make one since its my first time doing this then I always can

I think it's a good idea, because I had a lot more progress and engagement when I really settled on a form and a sort of backstory and all that

3:19 AM

Some others, however, find that their tulpa comes up with all that overnight

3:20 AM

It's really what you want, if you think you want them to have freedom, then go for it. If you have a form you think is kickass and cool, don't hesitate to give your tulpa that form

3:20 AM

they can change it if they want, down the line. (edited)

Cool, right now I'm just narrating mostly and trying to find answers w/out parroting as much as i can

all your thoughts today are yours

3:22 AM

to mvoe the needle, you have to spend some time where you are dealing with thoughts that are just the barest hint of not being yours

3:23 AM

so don't worry a huge amount about parroting, if you feel in some way that a response is coming from your tulpa, hone in on that feeling and encourage it, if you are able.

3:23 AM

it's easy to say, hard to do

I talk to her very frequently though, basically throughout the entire day. And I devote my time in bed to her before i fall asleep. So I definately have that down, now I'm kinda just playing the waiting game

3:25 AM

Thank you for your advice btw, very helpfull

thanks for thanks

Anyways, It's getting pretty late so ima head to bed. G'night

'night

Between parallel processing and visualization, what would be more important to focus on improving first?

I don't think there's a set order for those skills, neither one really seems required for the other

they're not particularly related. What's "more important" is up to you. I would think parallel processing, myself.

Thanks

6:18 AM

Any tips on what techniques I can use to improve parallel processing?

Alright, I'll be sure to try it

how often should I do active forcing daily?

as long as you feel comfortable doing.

that's understandable. I'm thinking more how many times per day tho.

6:49 AM

unless that's also the same answer.

As many as you feel like

Generally speaking, the higher the quantity of forcing and the more varied experience you are giving your tulpa throughout, the better.

We knew someone who would do 10 hour forcing sessions daily, on their days off. Overkill, but still.

righto.

anyone care to see the results of about an hour of interaction?

wait what 10 hours

#media

They were really devoted

not sure if i should be impressed or just confused.

6:51 AM

nerves of titanium

But yeah, generally the more the better, as long as you are comfortable with

I got ignored [Master, why did they ignore us...?] I don't know Ikari

Most likely, because you asked a rhetorical question and linked another channel, as if you were going to post something there and simply were indicating that people who want to see it should go there.

yeah basically

Then you know the most likely answer.

6:57 AM

There we are.

So the answer to your question Ikari is nobody else gives a shit. That's literally it. Yup.

It's cute

6:58 AM

Very pink

I could have gone for the generic pink-n-black, which was actually my original plan, but...[I wanted something a little more practical, also unique]...so FDE it was

hmm

7:00 AM

Make the meme knife gun and I'll have a genuine laugh

7:00 AM

That is pretty cute though.

[I mean...a girl has to look cute when she's about to kill you right? Teehee~~]

yo I'm new here

9:19 AM

i hope you guys treat me well

9:21 AM

so my first question is

9:22 AM

is actually tulpa a real thing? (edited)

yes, tulpas are in fact real

can you give me some proof?

9:23 AM

just to justify it

sadly I cannot, I can provide some evidence but proof is beyond my ability

9:24 AM

there's the subjective accounts of several people who have tulpas, as well as a few brain scans like this one http://i.imgur.com/wK7TU.png

ok is not that i trust you on point but i will try out this tulpa thing

9:26 AM

so how do i start?

ah, the forum is full of guides to answer that question in great detail http://community.tulpa.info/thread-list-of-guides--12660

i see I'll give it a read

I'm always censoring myself and getting nervous around Natt

10:57 AM

I feel like I'm restricting myself

11:00 AM

I stumble around my words and apologize a lot

11:01 AM

And in the process I feel like I'm annoying her and it makes it harder for me to talk to her

Hello, @𝚜𝚗𝚘𝚘𝚙𝚢𝚏𝚖𝚖 ★★★ - I would strongly recommend not simply "trying it out". Learn as much as you can, speak to people who have tulpas, preferably understand the difference in what is being described between people. But, most importantly, make sure that you are in a place that you can handle what a tulpa entails. Realistically, making a tulpa is and should be considered to be a permanent decision, worth serious consideration and research prior to making.

11:05 AM

For your own sake and for the sake of any tulpas you do eventually decide to create, please do make sure you know what you are choosing as much as you can before choosing it.

@SkyeNet got any tips for me?

thanks for advice

11:09 AM

i wanted to create a tulpa to help me out with my anxiety

11:10 AM

and my phobias

Even so, being well researched and keeping a lack of quick assumptions along with reasonable criticism based on consistent standards will serve you well.

11:18 AM

I wish you luck, in either case.

11:20 AM

@Deleted User, relating to self-censorship, why exactly do you feel like you are stumbling over words or needing to apologize? Are there certain topics you feel like you can't talk about?

Yeah sonetimes

11:23 AM

Plus I feel like whenever my friends do or say something dumb I have to apologise on their behalf (edited)

I see. Well, if it does help, you certainly don't need to apologize for others' behavior. They can do so themselves if they care that much. Perhaps I would try to keep some kind of reminder, like a string on a finger that represents the idea "I do not need to apologize for others" or similar - some reminder symbolizing how you want to behave that you can see and remember to adjust accordingly.

11:30 AM

Stumbling over words is one thing - but as long as you are still talking and interacting with them, that is more important than the precise content (though varied content is also important for the sake of new experiences).

I think it's because I feel like what I say can have some impact on her while she's still developing (edited)

12:08 PM

I want her to be a kind and loving girl And I'm afraid she'll turn into something else (edited)

you talking about your tulpa in that respect?

Yeah I am

12:19 PM

Not really...

I think you should be confident that your tulpa is going to turn out to be fine.

12:23 PM

However, if you have an aim of "to be a kind and loving girl" then you may be aiming at a bad target, I think.

Why's that?

It's kind of restrictive, if that makes sense? I think it's okay to force that sort of personality, but what happens if things don't go that way? Do you fight it, subconsciousally or consciously?

A little bit of both I think

Apologies for the delay in responding.

I'm not sure if I want to say it is necessarily bad, but try and consider that what you want and what is good for you are often very different things.

12:29 PM

A tulpa let go their own way may go a direction you dislike, but they'll likely go that way for a reason, and you may see a lot of benefit out of that deviation

@Deleted User If you want them to be a kind and loving person, then certainly your words will have an effect prior to them speaking for themselves - that said, perhaps treat them with that kindness, love, and respect yourself. Explain why you think those are positive traits and why you strive for them in your own right.

I'm out, though, cya all later.

In other words, give them understanding of what "kind and loving" behavior typically is, and contextualize it - show them why it is good.

That's part of the reason why I'm trying to bring Tae up ad a blank slate. I don't want to have expectations and be dissapointed in her when they're not met
