Tulpas

[uaya]

Hey guys,
I've recently heard about Tuplas for the first time and I kind of get the base concept, but now every time I doubt my witchcraft, spirits or any other spiritual phenomenon, I feel like it is all a tulpa or a placebo.
I know that people get ups and down in their confidence in spiritual works, but I was wondering if anyone had experience with a real tulpa and what it was, how it works. Would deities be tulpas?
It would be informative but also reassuring that things I'm experiencing aren't me going crazy,Thanks!

I think this is very similar if not the same as what my tradition calls a fetch, Personally I would not consider them deities.
I searched the topic and found these, hope it helps. search.php?st=0&sk=t&sd=d&sr=posts&keywords=Tulpa

Servitors, Egregores, Tulpas was a helpful post ty!

You're welcome!
And regarding egregore, they are a bit different because they form spontaneously and are associated with place (ie; genus loci) or corporation where a tulpa, servitor or fetch is formed by the magician and programed for a task and specific length of time. An egregore can survive as long as it's being fed by the energy of the people that gather in its presence.

Corporations- like the Belle Tire guy or Pillsbury Doughboy?

Ya, but maybe not the images as much as the energy that is fed into the corp.

This is a pretty subjective topic. A former friend of mine believed all gods and the like were tulpas and considered herself an atheist. Personally, I find a mix of the two in the world. But I can see why many believe all spirits or gods are tulpas. I mean many of them definitely need the power or reverence from humanity.
