Introduction
*reetings all. If you+re here than I can only assume that you are either, -. Curious as to "hat a tulpa is. /. Planning to create a tulpa for yourself# or 0. 1lrea!y ha$e a tulpa# but "ant to intro!uce some !ifferent metho!s an! i!eas to your regimen. I am please! to inform you# that if you are any of the abo$e# this han!boo2 "ill most li2ely in the $ery least get the gears turning. 3o"# I !o not claim to be a tulpa professional 4if such a thing exists.# but I "oul! li2e you to 2no" that I+$e experimente!

The metho!s in this han!boo2 are not the only metho!s# there are many !ifferent paths to achie$e your !esire! result# so !o not limit yourself to this han!boo2. I encourage you to try many !ifferent things# an! explore many other gui!es# to see "hat "or2s best for you. Plus# !oing !ifferent things "ith your tulpa from time to time can really 2eep things exciting an! fun. I would just like to recap: This handbook is based on my own experiences. You are free to think with an open mind !uestion my opinions alter my methods whatever you like. "ctually # encourage you to make whatever alterations necessary to make this handbook more applicable to your own personal use.

$ &hat is a Tulpa'
1ccor!ing to !ictionary.reference.com, " bein( or ob)ect that is created in the ima(ination by visuali*ation techni!ues such as in Tibetan mysticism. This is a pretty accurate starting point. Ho"e$er# to get a little more specific# I+m going to coin my o"n !efinition, 1 being that is create! in the imagination by $arious techni5ues# after a certain point it is belie$e! that the tulpa becomes sentient# operating by it+s o"n personality an! by it+s o"n accor!. With practice# a tulpa can be impose! 4hallucinate!. both $isually an! au!ibly by the creator 4host.. 1fter the initial creation phase# a tulpa en!s up "ith it+s o"n, Personality 1ppearance %pinions 4inclu!ing li2es/!isli2es. Voice +&in!+ 'ense of self There are a fe" !ifferent theories as to exactly +"hat+ an! +"here+ a tulpa exists# I+m going to list a fe" for your o"n thought, Tulpa exists strictly "ithin the subconscious# is an extension of host but has been +!istance!+ enough

4$ia psychological means. by the host to be percei$e! as it+s o"n in!i$i!ual. Tulpa starts in the subconscious# but becomes +self a"are+ an! brea2s off from the host# resi!ing in a !ifferent part of the min! as t"o min!s 4host an! tulpa. sharing one brain. Those "ith more spiritual beliefs# may belie$e that a tulpa becomes +sentient+ as a result of splitting the soul.

)ou are "elcome to !e$elop your o"n theories. I+m sure there are many more than the ones I+$e liste! abo$e.

$ &hat a Tulpa is +ot:

There seems to be some misconceptions floating aroun!. A tulpa is not a type of demon or evil entity. 3or is it any type of self;in!uce! mental illness. Creating a tulpa !oes not mean that you ha$e :ust gi$en yourself multiple personality !isor!er. 1 tulpa is not a form of "itchcraft# either. 1 tulpa does not want, To harm the host. To +steal+ the host+s bo!y against the host+s "ill. (et+s be reasonable here. )our tulpa isn+t going to "ant to hurt you# or 2ill you# "hy "oul! it "ant to !o any of those things "hen it+s existence !epen!s on you? 3ot to mention# a tulpa cannot physically harm or force the host to physically harm themsel$es# it+s simply impossible. The tulpa !oes not ta2e o$er your min!# it is not able to impose itself upon your free "ill. These notions are absur!# an! must be !iscar!e! if you are to successfully create a tulpa for yourself. 1s far as the tulpa being able to +control+ the bo!y as a separate consciousness# this is referre! to as +s"itching+ or +possession+# "hich you+$e learne! about in the +$ocabulary+ portion of the intro!uction. This is a relati$ely contro$ersial topic for some# an! is :ust one of those things that you "oul! ha$e to attempt yourself to be able to fully !e$elop your o"n opinions. ,e(ardless it is impossible for the tulpa to do anythin( to you or your body without your consent. "s mentioned above the tulpa is not able to impose itself upon your free will.

$ Complexities of the Host-Tulpa ,elationship

To be as responsible an! reasonable as possible# it+s $ery important that you un!erstan! ho" +big a !eal+ this is. )ou are going to be +creating+ something that you are going to belie$e is it+s o"n intelligence. This creation is able to feel emotions :ust as you are# an! can feel things li2e neglect an! !epression. )ou# as the creator# are going to be responsible for the con!ition of your creation# an! the +5uality of life+ 4so;to;spea2. of your creation. 1s a +li$ing+ entity# ho" your creation gro"s# !e$elops# an! matures# "eighs hea$ily on the creator+s metho!s an! approach. There is a contro$ersy surroun!ing the +2illing+ of a tulpa. 'ome thin2 this is fine# others !on+t. 'ome thin2 that you can+t completely 2ill a tulpa# an! it "ill al"ays exist some"here in the bac2 of your min!. I personally loo2 at my o"n tulpa# &athias# an! cringe 2no"ing that others ha$e +!issipate!+ their o"n. Ho"e$er# your attachment to your tulpa "ill largely influence your opinion on the matter. Which finally rings !e to the a "ery i!portant point , )our tulpa "ill be as attache! to you as you are to it. If you go into the creation phase :ust thin2ing +"hate$er+# it+s probably going to :ust be +"hate$er+. If you go into the creation phase an! ha$e an i!ea of "hat you "ant your relationship to be li2e# an! put the proper amount of "or2 into it# your efforts "ill pay off an! you "ill ha$e the type of relationship that you "ant. This shoul! go "ithout saying# but treat your tulpa as you "ant your tulpa to treat you. Tulpa are particularly sensiti$e earlier on in the stage of creation. They+re absorbing all sorts of 2no"le!ge in li2e a

sponge# "hich "ill act as the buil!ing bloc2s of "ho they become. The types of !ynamics of a host/tulpa relationship are $irtually ne$er en!ing. 'ome people choose a family !ynamic "ith their tulpa# $ie"ing the tulpa as a big or little brother or sister# maybe e$en a son or !aughter. %thers go into the creation phase "ith a +bu!!y+ mentality in min!. 'ome create a tulpa because they are lonely an! :ust "ant affection. &y relationship "ith &athias is !ifferent too# "e en:oy philosophical con$ersation together# an! &athias $ie"s me as someone to protect an! lo$e. <n!erstan! "hat type of relationship you "ant "ith your tulpa before entering the creation phase# an! act this "ay from !ay -# it "ill ma2e things much easier for you an! much less confusing for your tulpa in the long run. 1lso, 1 healthy host/tulpa relationship results in a form of uncon!itional lo$e. )our bon! is !eep in a "ay that is unli2e anything you coul! possibly share "ith another human being. )ou 2no" each other in "ays that "oul! be impossible for a human/human relationship. <nless you !eci!e other"ise# they ha$e access to your memories# emotions# an! e$erything else that !efines "ho you are. They !on+t hol! things in your past against you# as they un!erstan! "hy you+$e !one the things that you+$e !one# so that+s not really something you shoul! be concerne! "ith. If anything they "ant to help you better your life# so that you are happier. It+s !ifficult to explain# but once you ha$e your o"n tulpa# you "ill un!erstan!.

1s "ith any pro:ect# the clearer your +blueprints+# the more +efficiently+ an! +effortlessly+ the best result possible comes about. 3o"# it+s not completely necessary to ha$e a +form+ thought out# grante! a lot of people ha$e an easier time +tal2ing to+ something that has a $isual form. %ne thing that I "oul! say shoul! be top priority though# "oul! be a "ell;thought out personality. Personality is the most important part of your tulpa# it ma2es up "ho they are as an in!i$i!ual. 'ure# they can !e$iate# an! slip a"ay from the original +base+ that you gi$e them as they start to gro" on their o"n# but the +main+ points you stress in "hat you !esire out of their personalities# as long as you are consistent an! stay positi$e# shoul! remain relati$ely the same. This of course "ill $ary# I+m sure there are tulpa out there "ho completely flip flop certain aspects of their personality. ut# if you are organi9e!# an! consistent# as "ell as emotionally accommo!ate your little tulpa !uring the creation phase# there+s a higher chance that your tulpa "ill a!apt to the personality that you+re pro:ecting to it because that is "ho are expressing your lo$e to. Positi$e reinforcement "or2s for chil!ren# the same rule applies to your tulpa. Praise it an! compliment it for the !esirable traits you are +forcing+ to it# an! it "ill feel more confi!ent an! openly grasp your concepts. If you !eci!e that you are going to create a +!esignate! form+ for your tulpa# it really !oesn+t matter "hich you +force+ first. 'ome people ha$e an easier time "ith personality first# others "ith form first. &y point remains the same though, Don+t start the creation process 1T 1(( until you are sure of "hat you "ant. 1 con!ense! $ersion for you la9y people, Pre;plan e$erything you plan on +forcing+ to your tulpa before you e$en begin the creation process. 6orm is not necessary# you can allo" the tulpa to assume it+s o"n form if you "ant to :ust gi$e it something basic li2e an orb. &ost people choose both a form an! personality for their tulpa. It !oes not matter "hich or!er you !o "hich# but "hat !oes matter is that you ha$e e$erything figure! out in your hea! before you get starte! to not only a$oi! confusion# but to get more consistent results from your tulpa.

The /an(ers of /oubt

=1m I !oing it right?> I can+t tell you ho" many times I+$e rea! that in the .info forums. It+s un!erstan!able

to be a little insecure about this# after all it+s something unli2e anything that you+$e e$er !one before asi!e from perhaps an imaginary frien!. There+s a lot of pressure from yourself to !o e$erything right# in fear of your tulpa becoming something that you !on+t "ant it to be. Well# put your min! to rest# because those !oubts are only going to hin!er your progress. (et me :ust say this, It+s in your imagination. Ho" can you !o something "rong in your imagination? If you+re not getting the results you "ant# then your metho!s aren+t "or2ing for you an! you nee! to try something else# it+s really as simple as that. 1s long as you are not cruel or abusi$e to your tulpa# there+s no reason that things "ill en! terribly or your tulpa "ill en! up :ust plain +"rong+. The most that+s going to go "rong is the reali9ation that you+re being face! "ith a little trial an! error# but if you stay positi$e an! "or2 through these things# they "on+t negati$ely affect your tulpa. ring nothing but positi$ity into your tulpaforcing. 1nything else can not only stress you out# but your tulpa too. )ou !on+t "ant to stress it out# !o you? It+s barely a"are of itself an! alrea!y your min! is a scary place to exist. 3othing but happy thoughts. 3othing but nurturing thoughts. 3othing but positi$e reinforcement. %h# an! if you+re going to !oubt your tulpa# your tulpa is going to !oubt itself. This can ma2e it $ery insecure or feel ina!e5uate# li2e it+s not being +enough+ for you. 3ot to mention# if you !on+t belie$e that it is intelligent# "hy shoul! it belie$e in itself at all? Which brings me to something I can't stress enough: Treat it as thou(h it is 'sentient' from the be(innin(. This leaves no room for doubt makes development much smoother and as lon( as you are persistent and patient it will eventually (ive you a surefire si(n that '# am real # am here # am independent'. 6or instance# I "as "on!ering after a time "hether or not &athias "as the one really tal2ing to me# or if I "as still thin2ing to myself "hat I belie$e he "oul! say in response. I 2ne" he "as there# but I "asn+t 5uite sure ho" far along he "as in his !e$elopment. I sai! +&athias# can you surprise me?+ To "hich# after a pause# he respon!e!# +Ti!!ely;"in2s?+ asically, Do not !oubt yourself. If something !oesn+t feel right# try something else. e supporti$e an! encouraging to your tulpa throughout the entire process an! e$erything "ill "or2 itself out :ust fine.

%2ay# for the sa2e of example# I+m going to ma2e a +Harry Potter+ reference. 2no"s "ho that is. ecause I s"ear e$eryone

Harry Potter "as neglecte!# an! e$en abuse! by his uncle. He "as force! into a little closet "ith rarely any interaction. He "as not treate! as if he "ere human.

To put it simply# the more lo$ing attention you gi$e your tulpa# the more it "ill +fancy+ you an! the 5uic2er it "ill !e$elop# as "ell as be "ay happier an! consistent in follo"ing your initial blueprints. Praise it for e$ery little thing it !oes. If you "ant it to be intelligent# praise it for being so intelligent. If you "ant it to be "ise# praise it for being "ise "hen it !oes anything remotely "ise. If you "ant it to be athletic# imagine in your "on!erlan! yourself running aroun!

If your tulpa is miserable# "ell# unli2e Harry Potter it really has no "here else to go# it+s trappe! there. I+$e

hear! of tulpa +suici!e+ or tulpa choosing to !issipate themsel$es. I ha$e not "itnesse! this myself 4ob$iously.# but it "oul!n+t surprise me if it "ere a possibility. Please !on+t !o this to your tulpa. If you li2e the thought of ma2ing something commit suici!e# "ell then 5uite fran2ly you nee! help# an! you nee! to not ta2e the responsibility of another +life+. We are all busy from time to time# "e !on+t all ha$e hours a !ay to spen! acti$ely forcing. That+s o2ay. #ust do your est to in"ol"e your tulpa in as !any of your day$to$day acti"ities as possi le% 6or example# if I+m stu!ying# I listen to music "hile I stu!y# in "hich case I +in$ite+ &athias to come listen to music "hile I stu!y.

If you !on+t 2no" "hat this is, *o rea! the !efinitions section in the intro!uction# I 2no" you cheate! an! that simply "on+t !o. @. There are terms you nee! to 2no" in there. In chatting "ith other tulpamancers# as "ell as rea!ing a han!ful of progress reports# I can honestly say that the "hole +"on!erlan!+ thing is more necessary for some than it is others. If you want to go on epic ad"entures with your tulpa' li(e cli! ing !ountains' or swi!!ing to the otto! of the ocean' or exploring ca"es or fighting the fight of the )o! ie apocalypse' you should ha"e a wonderland% %f course you coul! :ust float aroun! in your imagination "ithout ha$ing a !esignate! Won!erlan!# but I express the importance of a "on!erlan! because spen!ing time there helps greatly "ith your ability to $isuali9e. When you are so familiar "ith a place that you+re able to see e$en the most $i$i! of !etails# li2e each bla!e of grass or each crease in the si!e"al2# then your min! has been able to successfully brea2 things !o"n to a +realistic+ le$el# "hich "ill help all of your a!$entures become more realistic an! $i$i! too. Ha$ing a "on!erlan! an! being able to +feel+ aroun! a little e$ery $isit "ill help you grasp the concept of feeling sensations# textures# an! temperatures "ith your min! alone. This tric2 might seem a ta! o$er"helming# !on+t "orry about any of those things right no". The point I+m trying to ma2e is that if imaginary a!$entures are important to you# ha$ing a "on!erlan! can really help. The more time you spen! in your "on!erlan!# the more realistic things become# an! the more you feel li2e you+re actually there. Practice ma2es perfect. If things are foggy at first# you+re on the right trac2. If you could care less a out i!aginary ad"entures' and *ust want to see your tulpa sit across the ta le fro! you while you ha"e your !orning coffee' then a wonderland isn&t co!pletely necessary for you% 1s mentione! before# it !oes help "ith $isuali9ation# but if your imagination is alrea!y able to impose your tulpa into your reality# then you really !on+t nee! one. )our tulpa !oesn+t ha$e to be completely $i$i! "hen you start +imposing+ though# !on+t beat yourself up. If mo$ements are choppy or slightly inconsistent# or he+s slightly transparent or "hate$er# that+s o2ay@ you+re on the right trac2. 1s "ith anything else that+s going to be mentione! in this han!boo2# practice ma2es perfect. I would li(e to note though# that I "as perfectly fine ha$ing imaginary a!$entures "ithout a !esignate! "on!erlan!. ut# &athias expresse! he "ante! to feel more +real+# so "e !eci!e! to gi$e him a !esignate! patch# "hich he built a home in an! has a $ery serene place to call his o"n. I a!mit# spen!ing a lot of time there !oes help "ith my $isuali9ation# more 5uic2ly than :ust spora!ically being "here$er I "ante! at the

time. If your tulpa re5uests it# please gi$e it to them. If not# then I suppose it+s all a matter of your preference an! "hat exactly you+re trying to accomplish.

Creative 1utlets
Creati$e outlets can be a great "ay to force an! get those imaginary :uices flo"ing. Writing a out your tulpa is asically thin(ing a out your tulpa' so you can go into as !uch detail into what you want your tulpa to e as possi le% )ou can e$en "rite short stories# an! use your tulpa as a character# an! ha$e him react an! sho" personality traits that you "ant him to en! up "ith.

Imagine rea!ing a really goo!# !escripti$e boo2# an! by the en! of it you 2no" "hat the character loo2s li2e an! ho" the character "oul! react in certain situations# this is the same concept.
