Tigerlilly - Lobsang Rampa

In retrospect, I see that even though he had agreed to re-
linquish his body for a greater cause, he must at times have
experienced a feeling of bewilderment about the whole pro-
cess.
Then we would have a nice quiet time on Sundays, and that
was the day we heard the other radio broadcast which inter-
ested and amused us, the talks by Professor Joad, from the
British Broadcasting Company, as was the program by
Fred Hoyle who, incidentally, has a helper, a colleague, these
days, in the form of his son.
Since we all enjoy something entertaining I have always
remembered the statement uttered by the Professor, whose
outlook and family were of the Victorian era. Professor Joad
told us he had never seen his mother's legs; if he had ever
glimpsed her ankles it was accidental, and that when he was
young even the table and chairs, and the piano, were covered
over with cloth so they could not be seen naked. ‘Could that be
true,’ I wondered, and if the Professor could take a look down
here now surely he would be shocked beyond words. He never
would have been able to survive if he had glimpsed the mini-
skirted era—
I do not propose to describe the actual take-over by Lob-
sang Rampa because he has written of it in his book, As It
Was, and I am sure most of the readers of this Tiger Lily of
mine will, if they have not read it, have heard of As It Was, so
if you wish to know more about this event the book is very
much in print all the time, therefore I would recommend that
you purchase it, and then you will know first-hand the whole
story, or most of it.
