I really doubt that tulpae can become "alters" that easily. MPD is still a very misunderstood phenomenon, but I've never heard of someone dying to his other personality.

So don't be worried.

Why do you doubt that? Could you please point me to whatever source you're getting your info from? Is it ironic that I accept tulpas as real, but I'm asking you to cite a source?

 

"As for Creepy!RD, you simply found a way to stop that intrusive thought from coming back. It wasn't a separate personality or anything, so it's nothing like dissipation/murder".

(Although... fire ? Isn't that a bit gruesome to watch ?)

What was Rainbow Dash's opinion about that ? Maybe she could give you more information on what it was.

It wasn't that realistic. It was pretty similar to the graphics in The Sims: Creepy!RD just flailed around a bit and disappeared. RD said that she'd used Creepy!RD as a way to forge her own identity, but I'm positive she was joking. She didn't say anything, but when I asked her about it I got a thought of a scene in an anime where one of the characters was being melodramatic.

Who else thinks we should come up with a term for when your tulpa communicates something to you in that way? "Got a thought" seems like something a little kid would say/just plain bad English.

One time in college, I studied even though it was 1:00AM and I was tired. At that time, I heard Twilight Sparkle's mindvoice praise me for doing so. A few days ago, Rainbow Dash said that that was her, just with a different mindvoice. A few minutes ago, I fixed a stuck bathroom sink drain when I could have easily asked my dad for help in the morning. Twilight's voice praised me for creatively fixing the problem myself. Rainbow Dash said that this wasn't her using a different voice. I'm guessing that there isn't much risk of me (somehow) "losing" Rainbow Dash, if you know what I'm talking about/implying (it's not sexual), but am I--

[No.]

--wrong?

I believe that's called 'tulpish'. Because that sounds soooo much better. Communication through images/emotions/anything not words.

Sounds like an intrusive thought. Happens all the time - at least, for us. Or she might have accidentally stolen one of your thoughts. It's easier to talk about whatever your host is thinking about than come up with stuff yourself.

That's on a metaphysics board, but the stuff I'm worried about was posted by a user who seems to take a psychological view. Blocking memories, making real things disappear, all those various ways of f*cking with a host; rareness/likelihood aside, is that stuff possible?

Also, the top post said that tulpas can appear in pics/vids. Anypony have any experience with that?

[babymoondust 223]

Hmm. I think for me this would actually exacerbate my loneliness rather than help it. At least this would be the only real factor that might make me want one in the first place. I really want companionship in "real person" form, or at least pet form (I really want dogs when I can financially afford to care for them). I would never judge someone for having a tulpa though; but for me I think it wouldn't work out.

Do they talk to you or can I see them

So if I wanted a luna or flutter shy or celestia what would they do.

It's a fact that the creepypasta(s) (I'm hoping there's only the one about the six-month experiment) give tulpas a bad name. What about people who see tulpas as metaphysical; don't most people usually dismiss metaphysical/pseudoscientific things as BS? Is there a difference between pseudoscientific and metaphysical?

[GGG 175]

can you tulpamance inanimate objects?

[KruegerMeister 54]

@twistedmetalero, yes, but their permanence varies.

 

How is it that tulpas can have personality traits that you don't? Does your subconscious have some kind of database of all possible traits, and there are a bunch that just aren't expressed?

I may or may not have messed up. I wrote to an advice column about personal issues. I ended up elaborating on my fear that a chain of events would take place, ending with my loved ones discovering that I'm a host. I directed the owner of the column to tulpa.info. I think he's an Otherkin, but I'm not sure how that will affect his understanding/opinion of our community. I mean, I unintentionally brought up tulpas on an advice column, for crying out loud!

[Scarlet Letter 136]

Would anyone who has a tulpa be willing to PM me so that we can discuss tulpae?

I'm not entirely sure if him being an Otherkin would affect very much. I would be more inclined to lean closer to the possibility that he would be more understanding and appreciative than not, but I also know Otherkin who are fairly closed-minded toward things, for whatever reason, which greatly confuses and bewilders me, all things considered.

So if I do this will I havr wife luna here with me when im awake other then my dreans can I hug and kiss her and see her and talk to her.

[KruegerMeister 54]

@luna831 I think so. Feeling/touching your tulpa is a pretty advanced technique, but it seems like seeing him/her is easy for most of the community. She won't look/act exactly like Luna from the show, though.

 

@SkyDream 1) do you mind if I quote your "hypothetical ghost" thing? 2) how do you think my New Age-loving friend would react? She believes in past lives and healing crystals, and she thinks Furry is a sexual thing, and Pony Lovers seems to be a sexual thing (from the one site I've seen).

[Luna 831 465]

What do you mean she wont be the same.

[SkyDream 315]

She's her own individual being. If you made a Tulpa of Luna as precisely and accurately as you can, and she sees the MLP:FiM Luna, she'd question her own identity. "Is that me? Why is there another me?" Then you'd have a lot of explaining to do.

 

It might be seen as selfish. Maybe.

You're more than welcome to quote it, certainly, thank you. It's just words, or a rationality, really. I'm more concerned that this New-Agey friend is being closed to the proverbial magic of friendship. I must be on a different kind of New Age mindset, because if a person is serious about New-Age stuff, they should seriously be looking into the benefits of watching the show and learning from it. Being judgey about it is exactly the opposite of what she needs to be.

[Luna 831 465]

So it wont acctualy be luna tis nonsense then why would I do this if I can not have my real wife luna or see her hug her or kiss her.
