tulpa discussion

hi, i know it's weird to ask a lucid dream forum about tulpa instead of a tulpa forum, but i'd like to get an outside opinion on this. And lucid dreaming seems somewhat related to tulpa anyway, so..

here's a link if you don't know what it is Tulpa.Info - Home

i just discovered this yesterday. I was reading an article where they make fun of bronies(my little pony fans). One section mentioned that some bronies created tulpas of their favorite characters, and in certain instances the tulpa started turning insidious and one brony even got raped... wtf.

anyway, i had no clue wtf was a tulpa so i looked it up and wow. Is this concept seriously real?

it sounds insane. Is it really possible to induce a visual hallucination like that, first of all? I'm not even going to go into the idea of creating another sentient mind inside your head through sheer concentration and force of will. I just want to know. Is it ACTUALLY possible to just visualize something for several hours a day in order to induce a realistic visual hallucination?

Yes, it is. I do it everytime i sit down to poop. I look at the carpet and make myself see faces, before too long it just come naturally.
I've done a lot of lsd and eaten even more mushrooms, though. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but there y9o go.

i've done psychedelics too. Even on psychedelics, i've never seen faces. Just distortions of patterns to look like faces. I assume that's what you're talking about too.

I've never actually seen a three dimensional visual hallucination other than when I'm in sleep paralysis.

I go to that website sometimes. I'm planning on making one, but not right now, since it takes a lot of time and effort. The idea if a tulpa is actually sentient is still being questioned, but I believe they are since they make their own thoughts and opinions. I believe you can visually hallucinate something if you spend hours focusing on it. Scientifically, I think it's possible as they're people who see things all the time. You should probably lurk around their forums for now and decide for yourself.

Moved.
