Talk:The Third Eye
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] is it just me
is it just me or did he forsee the future. if that guy published his book in 1956, and assuming it took about a year to write it and and think of it, it would be around 1954-55 that he started writing. the invasion of tibet was in 1959. and its just a little weird how he knew everything about tibet, because tibet was a very isolated area back then.

[edit] Citing Sources
The phrase "it bears little relation to documented Tibetan life" intrigues me. Sources? Is it verifiable under Wikipedia policy? I understand that a private investigator found Rampa/Hoskins, but are the book's accounts of 20th century Tibetian life are innacurate? If the investigators went to Tibet (doubtful), then where's the documentation to say how Tibet really was and where the Third Eye got it wrong? The book describes Lhasa, the Dalai Lama, prayer wheels, family life, Chinese invasion, etc. Did the author(s) get those wrong?
