"Once... [it] is endowed with enough vitality to be capable of playing the part of a real being, it tends to free itself from its maker's control." - Alexandra David-Néel, On the subject of Tulpas.
On Today's episode of Encounters, Amanda & Dakota are examining the 1972 parapsychology science project known as 'The Philip Experiment'. Come learn about a trial test group watched and studied by mathematician A. R. G. Owen and overseen by psychologist Dr. Joel Whitton.
The experiment? to manifest 'paranormal psychic energy' by creating a spirit and harnessing said spirit to perform tasks upon request. Sounds Crazy right? Well... they succeeded... and 'Philip' was born.
Tune in now to here the tale of Philip, Tulpas, and the Power of the Mind. All now on Encounters!
Stay Spooky!
