Interesting Sighting Details:
A thoughtform is a term used to explain a form of energy that can be
manifested through the collective efforts of a person or several persons.
In Tibetan dialects, thoughtform is translated as tulpa, which can be
actualized either consciously or unconsciously by willpower,
visualization, and the use of life energy.
Tibetan Buddhism is a religion that is strongly rooted in meditation
and in the understanding of the life energy. All living organisms possess
the life energy, it is strong in some organisms, and weak in others.
Through the proper practice and meditation, humans can learn to perceive
this energy with all their senses, and in some ways, can be able to
control it. The collective efforts of a group produce more of this energy
as compared to an individual.
The belief in the thoughtform exists in many cultures, particularly in
Central and South Asia, like Bhutan, Nepal, China, India, and Mongolia.
Regions that believe in shamanic practices also have their versions of
these thoughtforms. In Australia, there are practices with
thoughtforms that have originated from indigenous tribes. In Native Americans in
the United States, the Cherokees also believe in the spiritual ability
to create thoughtforms.
The essence of the Tibetan tulpa lies in the human ability to actualize
thought. Through focus and concentration, that which is only spiritual
or invisible can manifest itself in a physical form. Tibetans believe
that a tulpa is a ghost or apparition of a living person, existing in
the etheric or spiritual world. As a person wills the tulpa to exist, it
has a possibility to be seen by other people. Tulpas can be in the
forms of animals, mythical creatures, and also humans. There are accounts
of persons who practice this actualization, and have been able to take
digital photos of themselves with their tulpas.
One of the modern introductions of tulpas to the west was in the 19th
century, where Alexandra David-Neel, a French spiritualist, writer, and
explorer, discovered her ability to actualize thoughtforms after a
pilgrimage to Lhasa, Tibet. As a devout Buddhist, she learned how to focus
her spiritual energy and was able to allow her tulpa to exist as a
jolly friar image. However, the tulpa became uncontrollable, according to
sources, and had to be destroyed.
Many sources relate tulpas to egrigor, a western occult belief that is
described as a spiritual form brought to life through concentration and
meditation of a group. Egrigors, like tulpas, can be captured on film
or digital photography. Some persons believe that these practitioners
or occultists should observe caution when summoning and actualizing
their tulpas. Egrigors and tulpas have the ability to separate themselves
from the etheric world, and remove themselves from the control of the
persons who willed them.
Experts on the occult explain that thoughtforms such as the tulpa and
egrigor are the reasons why believed-to-be haunted places actually
become haunted. The human mind and spirit have an amazing power and the
ability to create things. Tulpas are only one of the manifestations of how
focus can make things possible.
Webmasters Comments About This Case:
The Tulpa is #1 when it comes to being a spiritual creature. In all recorded cases, the Tulpa became evil or very bothersome
and caused severe stress to the person that visualized it into existance, and eventualy had to be banished by exorcism or
some other means.
