Opening of theThird Eye

Yesterday I read 3 pages of Rampa’s The Third Eye. I was reading the part in which Rampa meets the Dalai Lama. He met Dalai Lama when he was 8 years old. The Dalai Lama is popularly referred as The Inmost One in Tibet. His Lamasery is in Potala. He was trained by his guru for meeting Inmost one. There are some of the quotes which I really liked from the book so far.

“ We must rehearse, we must make ourselves quite perfect in our approach”

The above quote is by Rampa when he is practicing the procedures and etiquettes one has to follow when meeting the Inmost One.

Some other quotes which inspired me a lot.

“Reading and Writing are the gates of all qualities”

“Writing is easy, all you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood from on your forehead”

So far I have covered 8 Chapters in ‘The Third Eye’. Hope will finish it soon.
