Sanpaku Eyes?

I could not find a thread on this one, but I remember it well from the 1970s. Decent coverage at the skeptic's dictionary:




Quote:








Some people believe that it is a sign of physical and spiritual imbalance if the white of the eye can be seen between the pupil and the lower lid as the subject looks forward. Such a condition is called sanpaku and those afflicted with it are said to be recognizable by their "chronic fatigue, low sexual vitality, poor instinctive reactions, bad humor, inability to sleep soundly and lack of precision in thought and action."* The cure is a macrobiotic diet.



John F. Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, and Marilyn Monroe were sanpaku, according to an expert in the field, Fred Pulver, who is also an expert in takionic energy.



Well, you can imagine, anything that could be proved with JFK was proven indeed. I recall that his biorhythm was bad on November 22, 1963 as well.



Anyway, I hardly ever notice people with the sanpaku eyes, but as it happened, tonight I decided to watch the mediocre at best 1985 movie, Young Sherlock Holmes. And oddly enough, YSH himself, Nicholas Rowe, was amazingly sanpaku. It seemed like every scene had an up-nose shot a la Gil Kane. Rowe's whites were front and center.



And yet Rowe still survives. As do most of the actors and actresses in the movie.



There was a book, You Are All Sanpaku about this nonsense as well. I thought I would start a thread as it is needed here.
