Lobsang Rampa: biography, books

Do you believe in the transmigration of souls? In a religious concept based on faith, that the soul, after leaving the physical body in connection with death, can move into a new physical shell of a living person, animal, bird, reptile or other creature? Well, believe it or not - this is your own business. The hero of this article Henry Hoskin devoted almost all his life to mysticism and esotericism, proving to everyone that the Tibetan lama Lobsang Rampa had settled into his body.

To completely deny the existence in our reality of phenomena that are nothing like mysterious and mysterious, mystical to the point of absurdity, no one can, because they are. Specifically, this fact is not denied even by representatives of the scientific community.

Kairil Henry Hoskin

In full measure, unfortunately, or satisfaction, this postulate also applies to biography, writings, the lifestyle of the famous exalted British Kairil Henry Hoskin. Ordinary inhabitant, born in distant 1910, on April 8, in the city of Devon, in the UK, in a poor family of hereditary plumbing. And safely deceased in the rank of spiritual enlightener, a Tibetan lama, called Lobsang Rump, in Calgary, Canada, in January 25, 1981.

Studying these facts, it can be reliably asserted that they are completely proved. First, an Englishman named Hoskin really lived. He was born in the year named, lived, according to contemporaries, under this name in England, in the county of Surrey. It is a fact. Secondly, twenty-one books, which came out of his pen in large editions, when he became a writer under the pseudonym Tysdei Lobsang Rampa, is also a fact.

Biographical excursion

So, meet Lobsang Rampa. The biography of the real person wearing this pseudonym is quite ordinary. The future writer-fiction writer, visionary and guru, how we were born and lived boringly and everyday in the family of the plumber father, was partly told. Nothing remarkable until 1947, when Hoskin came to mind officially to change his passport data to Did Paul, did not happen in his life. In addition to his constant telepathic urges and dreams to plunge into the astral world. Probably, for this reason, he often changed places of residence.

Breakthrough and fateful 1949

On Tuesday in June (Tuesday), his newfound personality, Tusdei ("Tuesday") Lobsang Rampa, was born.

He himself explained the appearance of the phrase with the ritual of the Tibetan nationalities to give the name to the boy by the day of the week when he was born. More detailed procedure in his book Lobsang Rampa. "Third Eye" describes in detail some of the traditions of Tibet.

It must be honestly added that by this time he was already actively writing his books, trying to publish them, but in eight publishing houses to which he offered works, the author was refused without convincing explanations. This is the initial destiny, sad and sorrowful, almost all who devoted themselves to pen and paper.

The most convincing factor for the printing of works

After gaining a new name and literary pseudonym, his books are gradually beginning to gain popularity among readers - lovers of esoteric and mysticism. The then holders of the printing house of publishing houses were, perhaps, an urgent need for new works of this man. Because they brought fabulous profits, the books bought up instantly, swiftly swept away from the shelves of bookstores and shops. The demand was breathtaking! The excitement in the public mind went off scale!

The leading newspapers distinguished the most prominent places for publications dedicated to such an author as Lobsang Rampa. The reviews were written both by professional critics and by ordinary readers who expressed themselves for, who opposed. There were also angry voices, and pleading, begging and boiling with envy. But it was not indifferent. All for the living hooked this is not from this strange world. They believed and did not believe, did not know how to relate, how to react to a person from the "other world".

"The Third Eye" and Passion for Rampe

Was it true that everything that happened to him, what Rampa described so vividly in his works, or is this violent fantasy of a not quite normal writing adventurer? Or maybe he really is the embodiment of ancient Tibet from the manuscripts, the incarnate lama with the third eye?

Is it possible, is it a violent fantasy of a writer or a painting engendered by a psychic illness? Surgical details of drilling without anesthesia bones of the forehead of the author, described by him in a book with a similar name, cause a shock. About all this "ramps miracle" do not stop ardent debate to this day. And this confirms at least the professionalism of the writer, who managed to provoke the readers' sincere interest.

The very first book of the author, who started to create under the pseudonym Lobsang Rampa, is "The Third Eye". She also became one of the most famous books in the world of esotericism. In addition to mysticism, this work describes the nature of Tibet, its inhabitants, customs, legends. Particularly detailed about the local religion - Buddhism. And the whole process of immersion of the reader into the world of Tibetan Buddhism takes place in an exciting and inimitable manner, through a description of the process of raising and growing a boy from an aristocratic family and his spiritual growth.

Everyone knows that during the Soviet times there was strict censorship, it extended to all and especially to foreign literature. The books of such an author as Lobsang Rampa were published in the Union, but their translation was noticeably distorted due to the inconsistency of the content of the dominant ideology. Therefore translations made after 1991 are of great artistic value.

Perseverance and persistence in achieving the goal

Simply write that the author did not give up, did not lower his hands, then do not pay tribute to his courage and faith in the matter that took possession of his whole being, soul, thoughts, body. Writes and writes Lobsang Rampa, books one by one all the same go on the general review. Their list was constantly replenished until the author's death in 1981. The last two were published after his death, but also included in the list of his literary creations. His wife continued her husband's bright and mysterious road and also released five of her own works, which also interested readers.

Practical value of works

It differs from many esoteric writers Lobsang Rampa. The books of this author are filled with great practical value. In this respect, the "Wisdom of the Ancients" is distinguished. The book was an expected admirer of Lobsang's art, and not for nothing! In it, anyone will find concrete practical methods of breathing exercises aimed at improving vision, general strengthening of the health of the body, it will be taught how to warm up at any negative temperatures. Also for many will be useful information on the correct nutrition, supporting the material body in an ideal state. Thus, the books of the Rampa are not just "crazy crazy", as some critics call them, but a set of rules for a healthy life with clear recommendations and techniques.

An eternal trace, like the Milky Way. Lobsang Rampa, you are eternal!

No wonder the wise proverb says: "Time is the best doctor, teacher and judge." Years passed, we entered the XXI century, and the seething human sea is boiling, only after hearing the familiar name of a once unknown and outlandish Englishman.

Yes, of his English roots and do not remember, all on hearing a scandalous and disturbing mind and soul Tibetan: "He who was born on Tuesday." Eternity is always on the side of non-ordinary, misunderstood and unaccepted in earthly life. They are few, far fewer than boring inhabitants. But ordinary people do not remember anything. So what about Henry Hoskin? Perhaps, indeed, he was once a lama? And to him really appeared monk, asked consent to admission into the body of the soul of the departed mentor? Maybe, really, it was?
