How did you go about tulpa forcing?
What I've done is:
Set up some personality traits
Make up a background story for her
Visualize her a bit (although I keep changing what she looks like...)
Talk to her in my mind

What I've started doing is talk to her out loud, not sure if it has any more utility though

Also I have been tulpaing on and off, not sure how that translates to the effectiveness of it...

Every image, smell, or feeling that you experience ultimately comes from your head though. It's just a matter of convincing your mind that what is really there isn't what you want to see.

Someone who has mastered their imagination can see whatever they want to see. If you want to see the bully shit himself then you can see this. Whether or not he actually shit himself is irrelevant as long as you believe that he did and your mind showed you what you wanted to see.

The same thing applies to magic. If you believe enough and if you have nurtured your imagination then if you want to see magical flames erupt from your hands or if you want to see a dragon then you will see these things.

People care too much about what is real when it doesn't actually matter. Subjective reality is the only thing that matters. Would you rather live in a dream where you can do anything or have anything that you want or would you rather live in "reality" and endure some shitty existence filled with pain and suffering?

Wait, what?

[Anonymous No.]

>>9247544
Tulpa is only forced upon your "subjective reality", but it still doesn't change the fact, that the tulpa isn't in the "objective reality". You cannot apply pressure to something that objectively doesn't exist. Though, there's a possibility to hug or hands with a tulpa. You just need to do it really slow and be delicate.

Don't worry, that's inaccurate. You can feel your tulpa.

The problem is that they're trying to apply reason and logical thinking to something that is a product of your imagination. There are no limits to the imagination and nothing is impossible.

There are limitations in reality, but that has nothing to do with how you perceive reality. For example, imagine that you have a tulpa and you are going to try to climb onto his shoulders. Now imagine that there is another person who is observing this.

The third party will see a man sitting alone on the floor with his eyes closed or maybe they will see a man grasping at the air or whatever he does when he uses his imagination.

The man will see his tulpa, he will smell his tulpa, and he will feel his tulpa as he climbs ontop of his shoulders. He will not physically be held up in the air during this, but all of his senses will tell him that he is. It will be as clear as reality to him.

The limitations of the imagination only exist when you believe that they exist. The person who wrote that probably has a lot of experience with tulpas, but their underlining belief is too bogged down by the limitations of reality. They have unknowingly imposed limitations upon their imagination because they believe that these limitations exist after logically thinking about it, but these limitations don't exist in your imagination unless you believe that they do.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9247661

(continued)

Their reasoning makes perfect sense. A tulpa is imaginary so how can I apply physical force to an imaginary entity? You can't so their conclusion is that you must not be able to, but the problem is that they are underestimating the imagination and applying limitations where none exist. Hallucinations are not limited to existing as what's essentially a hologram unless you believe that they can never be more than a hologram. You have to drop your established thoughts on reality and realize that through your imagination you can vividly experience what it feels like to climb a mountain or fly across the sky while you're sitting on the floor.

Here's an example that most people can probably relate to. When I was about 15 years old I was ill and I had a very high fever. I hallucinated that I was floating in the air with my head just inches below the ceiling, I no longer felt my legs touching the floor, my entire visual perception had now changed so that I was viewing the room from an angle that should have been impossible because of where I was physically sitting, and I could raise my arms and feel the ceiling against my hands. All of these things should have been impossible because of limitations in reality, but the mind will cause you to feel whatever it believes is real, even if it doesn't match up to physical reality.

>>9247680

All you really have to do is believe and keep believing for a long enough time that your mind just gives in and produces the image, personality, or whatever you want it to create. That's what it all comes down to with tulpas or any creation of the imagination. It's also a bit of a double-edged sword though. This isn't like most other things in life where you just follow the instructions or do the studying and you get the result regardless of whether or not you actually believed you could finish it.

This all depends on believing that this is possible. If you think that you won't be able to touch your tulpa or if you think that you won't be able even create a tulpa then you won't be able to. You have to throw those doubts out and realize that this is the imagination and you can create anything. There really shouldn't even be guides on creating a tulpa because it implies that there's a certain way to do this when creating things from your imagination is such a personal experience that the only right way is the way that feels right to you.

That's the thing though, it's only sad to the person who is observing it.

For example, just look at your picture. We look at her and we see a girl with her eyes closed and sitting in a dimly lit room with a cardboard box. It's a depressing image, but the important question is what does she see?

Maybe she's a princess right now and happily living in a castle or maybe she's a cowboy roaming through the wild west and fighting bandits. The point is that she's doing living out her dreams and doing the things that she loves most.

It's really only depressing for the person who observes this, but where does the depression come from? They live completely in delusion and fantasy but it makes them happy, so when people feel depressed when they look at someone like this is it because they somehow feel pity for someone who is unimaginably happy or do they feel depressed because she has escaped and they're stuck in reality, the place where every dream is crushed and all you have to look forward to are the fleeting moments of happiness in between constant suffering and struggle?

My tulpa is this girl who I've been developing for more than 10 years. She's gotten so vivid I can draw her portrait, but I can't draw very well so I wouldn't do her any justice. She appears in the strangest places just to prank me, this morning it was inside my closet. She's also quite the delinquent, anything she ever brought to me she claimed she stole from the nearby convenience store. While I've grown a lot older since I started imagining her, she hasn't aged a bit.

Not the one you are replying to but I found this on http://tulpa.info/guides/faqman-creation-guide.html

>Next, think of a form. No, don't make yourself. No, don't make your dead mother or your crush. It can be humanoid, a creature, an animal or a rock. Just think of something you will want to focus on for hours at a time, and hang around for quite probably the rest of your life. Making the tulpa have the same body or visage as a known and fleshed out character is not good. This can lead to the tulpa having identity problems, feeling like it has to live up to something its not, and the like. You could never make a tulpa be exactly the same as a character. They are their own being. Do not stifle them by applying the preconceived notions you have about a character to them.

>how shit her life is

It makes me feel sad to think that some people actually feel this way.

As long as you are still alive and still capable of conscious thought then your life is wonderful and you can do anything you want. Your legs might be amputated, but you can still sprint across the world and outrun a cheetah. Your eyes might be gouged out, but that doesn't mean you can't climb to the top of a mountain and gaze out at all of the beautiful things surrounding you. As long as you still have your mind then anything is possible.

I wish that more people tapped into their imagination. It's really the most wonderful thing in life, but so many people just discard the imaginary world before it ever really got a chance to develop to its full potential. Apparently it's a part of growing up, but all you really do is deprive yourself of a world where everything you could ever dream of is possible so that you can have a world where none of your dreams will come true and whatever happiness you do manage to scrounge up comes at the price of years and years of sacrifice and hardship.

How many people slave away in some career they despise just so they can maintain some extravagant lifestyle? They could have had all of those things and far more within their mind, but they've become so strapped down to this idea of reality that they will keep suffering like this until they eventually die.

Unlike many other odd things you see on this site, making a tulpa is much easier to keep to hide from IRL folk. Also, awesome imagination training and memory recall.
