Seconding this, I noticed the parallels the moment OP started talking about advisors injecting comments.
Tulpas can be instantiated from fictional characters, and these are called fictives or soulbonds. And it’s not about ceding control, I think that’s more of a did thing where some alters will hide because they’re traumatized and afraid.
I suspect that feeding an advisor attention (by talking to it a lot) will help it grow into a tulpa/alter. But I’m not sure, my advisors aren’t even at the level described in the post. I have to invoke them deliberately, and they disintegrate as soon as I’m done talking. On the other hand, I don’t spend hours conversing with them every day, which everyone seems to agree is part of instantiating a tulpa.
