Kind of but not really. The plural community co-opted it a while ago to mostly mean 'a being created through will' though some of them in the plural community do use spiritual practices to create them it isn't always a given. See here or here.
Some say it isn't co-opted, but the fact that there's a lot of confusion about it means, to us at least, that it's not a good term and it should probably be replaced by better ones like Parogenic (see here or here) or Willogenic (see here or here).
There's a lot of back and forth on this and it'll likely never be fully resolved, but yeah. Now you know.
That doesn't sound healthy to me, but I'm nobody.
Jfc, tulpa reference in the wild!
I think the facial expressions of this comic are silly and well drawn
Ugh, that's terrible. Please practise responsible plurans creation where possible.
