Answer 4

I looked this up:

A tulpa is, in Tibetan mysticism, a being or object which is created through sheer willpower alone. In other words, it is a materialized thought that has taken physical form (a thoughtform).[1]

The concept was brought to the West in the 19th century by Alexandra David-Neel[2], who claimed to have created a tulpa in the image of a jolly, Friar Tuck-like monk which later developed a life of its own and had to be destroyed. David-Neel has been cited by Wells (2006), follow website metalink in notes or references.

Many authors and artists have since used tulpas in their works, both in the context of fiction and in writing about mysticism. Horror author Clive Barker, for example, envisioned his famous "Candy Man" killer to be nothing more than a myth gone terribly awry in his original story.

Answer 5

Yes, but i had to kill it... i didn't have a choice it was "thinking" for itself. don't tell this to anyone. My friend told me that eventually, you will have to destroy a tulpa
