Tulpa.info was on the radio!

I just reblogged Bluesleeve’s entry, and it pretty much summarizes it.  For those of you who don’t know, I was invited onto the NCK&FRIENDS radio show about a month ago, after they did a previous show on tulpae – showing them in a more negative light.  Some members got together and decided that we should show the listeners that tulpae just aren’t those monsters under the bed, or the boogymen in the closet, but actual thinking, feeling, sapient, individuals.  What better job then, to have tulpae themselves make their case?

I could say that things went very well, though.  However, for about the first half of the show, I must admit, I was nervous – very nervous.  I’m not one to do things like this normally, but I tried my best to represent this growing community.  Aside from hyperventilating into the mic during the first half of the show, I’ve been told I did a good job on there, handled the questions well, etc, but I have yet to listen to how I actually did…  I’ll do it tomorrow, then I’ll facepalm through the whole thing.

We’ve had some Q&A both directed to me and several tulpae (off the top of my head, Atasco, Lauren, Lyra, Mio, Morgan, Vinyl, I think, and I’m sure there were a few more as well).  It was really interesting to see the diversity of opinions on the different schools of thought (metaphysical and psychological) as well as the amount of respect and neutrality between the two schools shown in this very community.

A shoutout also goes out to Atasco.  He had the confidence to make a call into the show, and while he was probably more nervous than me, he goes down in history as the first tulpa to voice their words on the radio, and possibly any vocal media.  And what were his historic words?  “I got dibs!”

Anyway, you can listen to the radioshow here: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/nckabbalah/2012/08/07/nckfriends
Note: For those in the psychological camp, heed the warning, the show is heavy on the spiritual school in the beginning; the first 9 minutes are pretty much ‘filler’ stuff until I call in; however, you will find an appreciation in the mutual respect given during the show.
