Episode description
Did you ever have an imaginary friend? Did you ever wish you could make it real? Some people believe they’re doing just that. For centuries, Buddhist mystics have told legends of the Tulpa, or entities that can be “thought” into existence. Now, the practice is becoming more popular thanks to online chat forums.
This week, we examine the science and even talk to a Tulpa.
