    If you couldn't handle Don and Carlos, you probably won't handle him very well either.

    Absolutely.

    Have you ever seen something and thought, "did I really see that?" turning to the rest of the crew wondering the same thing.

    Ever been through something and just go, "what? did that really happen...?"?

    It happens all the time....especially when you're alive.

    Anything in particular shake you? What can I do to elaborate what I know?

    Actually, it turns out he was born in Basingstoke or somewhere.....a hoaxer I'm afraid.

    yeah, T. Lobsang Rampa was just a bored English dude who wanted to get famous, so he tapped in on Orientalist fever :)sultan:) and invented some stories about Tibet. Most of the things he said would make any Tibetan laugh their ass off. The few things he got right were details easily found in British libraries. Rampa never left England until he went to America after the publication of The Third Eye. Look at the pictures, he doesn't even know how to wear a monk's robes correctly. For an in depth discussion of the fraud, try Prisoners of Shangri-La, by Lopez.
