T Lobsang Rampa - Was he a "Walk-In"?

Lobsang Rampa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

During my teenage years one of my favourite authors was T Lobsang Rampa. I became hooked as soon as I finished his first book, The Third Eye. Over the following months I read the entire collection that was available in Spain at the time, if I remember correctly, 13 books in total. He was to be of enormous influence in my later life as an adult. Many of my spiritual beliefs were based for a long time in what I had read all those years back. Some of them still are. It was with sadness that I discovered in recent years how he was derided and hounded by the british press and accused of making false allegations and basically being a phony. My question is, was Lobsang Rampa a "Walk-in"? Could he had really just given up his body, otherwise born Cyril Henry Hoskin in England, to the spirit of this lama born and bred in Tibet, who was ultimately responsible for the writing of all those books? Did he have a mission? I do believe that there are thousands of people out there whose spiritual path started after reading The Third Eye. The link above explains the very basic facts but I want to find out more.

Cozumel Harbour


Posted by Picasa Well, if you can call it a harbour that is. More like a docking facility built with the money of big cruise liner corporation. Still, a lot better than just anchoring in the middle of the bay and have everybody getting off board and reaching shore on tendering boats. My favourite spot of all the travelling on the Caribbean all those years ago. Lovely beaches, fantastic food, Tecate beer. Heaven on Earth.

La generación que construyó España | Tribuna de Salamanca

La generación que construyó España | Tribuna de Salamanca


Este es un enlace que se puede leer despues de leer mi 'enganchada' con Isabel pues el autor llama a las cosas por su nombre. Ah y no se menciona para nada a los reptilianos como causantes de la crisis por la que pasa el país. Para nada. Menudo disgusto se va a llevar la pobre como se le ocurra hacer un google con su nombre y lea esto.

Isabel de la Fuente, Periodista, Vidente, Canalizadora y Egomaniaca


Isabel de la Fuente, Periodista, Vidente, Canalizadora y Egomaniaca.

Esta entrada pense en incluirla en inglés pero luego pensé que no creo que haya mucho interés por esta mujer en los paises de habla inglesa. Y por otra parte, al estar todo el material español es mucho mas facil hacer la entrada en el idioma original. Se me ocurrio dado el bajo tono de la segunda conversacion utilizar Google translator solo para darle mas drama y asi exhaltar lo bajo que corre la teta de una hormiga pues yo no me iba a poner a hacer una traduccion decente. Al final mi decision ha sido dejar la traduccion para el lector si es que tanto le interesa.

En las ultimas semanas he estado haciendo un poco de investigacion intensiva en internet de un tema que me interesa. Fue a raiz de una conversación que tuve con una buena amiga quien me sugirio tal vez una intervención de los intraterrenos. Yo hasta ese punto jamas lo habia considerado, es mas, apenas pude relacionar con la idea de los intraterrenos, unos seres que parece ser viven dentro de la tierra que ahora dicen que es hueca.

Google continuamente me mandaba a paginas diversas (muchas de youtube) sobre charlas, congresos de ufologia, etc, donde esta mujer, Isabel de la Fuente, habla de los intraterrenos y de muchas otras cosas, muchas de ellas lo que he descubierto llaman en España las consparanoias, que me imagino viene de la union de las palabras conspiracion (de teorias conspiracionistas) y paranoia. Increiblemente acertada la palabra.



Bueno, pues acabe en su pagina de internet por la que por cierto pide ayuda de sus seguidores y todo por algo menos de €500, o sea unos €1.32 al dia, o sea menos de lo que te cuesta un cafe en muchos bares, y esta tia no se lo puede permitir. Eso si, debo decir que la pagina es muy mona, esta llena de idiotas muy entretenidos y muy colgados como higos que cuelgan videos contandote calamidades con gafas de sol puestas (y el video grabado enfrente del ordenador de casa) y no hay anuncios, que es generalmente el medio que usan muchas paginas web para sustenerse como bien sabe cualquiera que visite youtube con cierta frecuencia.

Heating System


Over the last few days, since my 51st birthday exactly a week ago today I have been visiting a very interesting blog of a spanish guy who is into many varied things. Many of which I have been interested for a long time. The ones that interested me most were the pages on DIY, particularly regarding heating and the use of home coils for water heating, boilers built using old oil tanks and stuff like that. Also I was impressed to see how courageous and involved he is in his work particularly as I say with stoves and heating systems and so many other things. I liked it so much that I wrote a few pages and tried to post them in different parts of his blog. 


Unfortunately I'm not sure he has blocked the comments as they were probably redundant or of no use to him or maybe I'm not using the system correctly. I suspect the former. However, all is good, if he has decided not to publish my entries it’s his loss as I consider myself fairly knowledgeable in these things albeit only on the theory side. Taking the project to fruition is or has been another matter, and money and time has had a lot to do with it. For some reason money and time never seem to come along at the same time, either I have loads of time to roll my thumbs but not a penny or I have good money coming in but no time to do anything. Talking about the last four year's roller coaster!. I hope to go back to those four years as this blog develops. I really need it. Not only to know where I come from, of which I have a fairly healthy notion but also to get a feeling of where I go from here which is something it gets blurry at times. I hope I’ll manage to keep the sour bits out. In any case this guy's blog has inspired me to create (or in this case re-create) my own and use it as a reference for my project or whatever I feel like writing about.

 Update, the guy is definitely ignoring my entries. Small dick syndrome. Och well, good thing is he inspired me.



To begin with I would like to enter details of my project for heating a house, hopefully my next house, with a wood burning boiler stove, solar panels and a thermal storage tank. I’ve been collecting data for the last four of five years and now I feel it’s the time to try to get all that organized rather than stored and accumulated in one or two hard drives. I was amazed when I began to investigate and I discovered there was so much to learn. I was amazed to discover the technology behind the use of renewable resources, heating systems, solar panels, heat pumps, wind mills to produce electricity, etc. I had no idea there was an entire world out there waiting to be discovered and explored, so I began my exploration. 


In the meantime I'm still learning how to stick here ideas I come across the internet. Like heating water with solar panels, preferably home made or DIY. Let's have a look to see if it works. By the way the above schematics are for a Torrent Solar system but the concept is very much the same regardless of the make. Only TiSun seems to have an external solar heat exchange coil with a rather interesting infrared video showing the heat transfer and rise in temperature inside the tank.



Very interesting place with loads of information from the USA. Concentrating solar collectors 



This article offers an illustrated description of a method to produce a closed parabolic trough solar energy collector box. It gives dimensions in metric and imperial to build a true Parabolic Solar Trough.

 And this one full of ideas and 'how-tos' from the UK

This other one that sells Hot Water Storage Tanks in Spain. Latento storage tanks made in Germany.

I'v just found an Aragonian Company which seems to do all the type of installations I'm looking for. The name is Oscasolar. Created in 2008, based in Binéfar, Huesca, they are the sole (?) Climaboard distributors for Spain. They also fit Vacuum Tube Solar Panels "Heat-Pipe"and storage heaters although the brand they carry is not specified. The web page itself is not the best I've visited but at least there is a contact pag. They can be found here: Oscasolar

Solar water heating - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia As it says on the name, encyclopaedic.
