A Hitler Tulpa?

[Sepka]

Considering how many people obsess over Hitler, pro and con, it occurs to me that one might expect to see Hitler manifest as a tulpa. I've not heard reports of anyone claiming to have seen him, though. Has anyone else?<br> <p>-Sepka the Space Weasel</p><i></i>

No...but your query puts an interesting spin on all those Elvis sightings in the '80s. <p></p><i></i>

Interesting thought. There were, actually, many Elvis-like sightings of Hitler around the world in the years after the war. but they dwindled as the evidence grew that he had died in the bunker.<br><br>I'm no expert on tulpas, but I think expectation as well as obsession must be part of their creation. <p></p><i></i>

There's a book that may be a good resource for a study of this:<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v226/JeffWells/subalbum1/hitlerthesurvivalmyth.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Hitler: The Survival Myth</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> is the only comprehensive examination of the mythology surrounding Hitler's suicide; of the legends of his survival and escape from Germany (including Hitler sightings from Latin America to Antarctica); and of the public's continuing fascination with, and the media's wild theories about, the Führer's fate.<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.powells.com/cgi-bin/biblio?inkey=1-0815411286-2">www.powells.com/</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> <p></p><i></i>
