Sanpanku Eyes Spiritual Meaning

If you have sanpanku eyes you are known as a "Sanpanku" it means you have spiritual insight according to legend. If you can see the whites that surround the eye: the bottom-left-right, or even above then this is a positive omen for your life. Spiritually it means you have the ability to foresee future events. There is also a dark side to these eyes which I will go into shortly but let me first tell you about the yin and yang. The theory is that spiritually we all have opposing forces in our lives and it is thought that the sanpanku eyes can mean you are on one of two paths, these paths are known as Yin and Yang. 

The Sanpaku can be associated with both Yin and Yang and those that have these eyes have two life paths:

• Yin Sanpaku - The Yin indicates that the face is dangerous and the person will give into dark thoughts. However, there are ways to overcome this. Those that have a stare, that is prolonged indicate these eyes.
• Yang Sanpaku - The Yang is positive --- this indicates those that have these eyes are connected to emotions in life and the behavior that we exhibit. In the Japanese tradition, the Yang Sanpaku spiritually means conflict and self-control. 

The white on the bottom is called Sanpaku by the Japanese. Irises don't touch the bottom of your eyelid, and the whites of your eyes are visible below. Medically, these types of eyes are down to a genetic disorder known as "Sanpanku" in Japan and on occasion causes the iris of the eye to have a black streak running through it and three whites around the eyes. It is caused by a mutation in the gene that controls pigmentation, and its name means "black stripe" in Japanese. A cure for Sanpanku eyes is not known, and from my research, the condition is relatively rare. In spite of this, I have read that the condition is not harmful to vision or overall health.

There is a Japanese belief these types of eyes (Yin) have sociological problems and it is known as the psychopath stare -- I am not sure I agree. What is interesting is that in Japanese face reading Sanpaku means "three whites" if you stare in a mirror you will see that your eyes have two sides one to the left and right. Those that have Sanpaku can indicate white also either below or upright. Therefore the eyes look like they are "staring" so I am going to go into the spiritual meaning of these types of eyes. 

What are Sanpanku eyes?

In Japanese, the word "Sanpanku" (さんぱんく) describes the eye found in snakes and lizards. If we translate "sanpaku" this can be interpreted as "three whites" and literally this is associated with how our eye divides up and the “space” of white around our eye. The Japanese believe the whites of our eyes indicate our spiritual path in life. The superstition that people with these eyes are dangerous was widespread in the 1960s, as many murders had occurred, and people believed that the murderers had extra white at either the bottom or top of their eyes. For now, I just wanted to let you know that face reading, or as I like to refer to it: in physiognomy, encompasses many different interpretations of what certain features on the face represent. Large pupils are a sign of intelligence or wisdom but also a sign of danger or aggression. 

Is having Sanpanku eyes bad?

It was in 1965 that Japanese macrobiotic theorist George Ohsawa said, "The long and short of it is that a person with sanpaku eyes is not long for this world. He is doomed." In other words, someone with sanpaku eyes will die soon. According to Ohsawa, sanpaku eyes are associated with three main causes of death. First, the person will kill themselves. The second possibility is that someone else will kill them. Natural death is the third possibility. So is this really true? Also, I bet you are here because you are wondering about the personality of the sanpaku person that you know. In order to explore this further we need to turn to more information in his book. George Ohsawa views sanpanku eyes as a way to see the world in harmony with nature, seeking the truth, and helping others. There is a belief that this way of looking at the world can bring about peace and prosperity. So in my view, this is also a lucky sign. Famous people, princess Diana and Bille Eilish are supposed to have Sanpaku eyes, but on the other hand, there are pictures online where their eyes do not have permanent white underneath or on top. 

What is interesting, is that sanpanku eyes are also a type of eye found in some animals, such as snakes and lizards. A large pupil occupies most of the eye in these creatures. Although they are able to see well in low light conditions, bright light can be difficult for them to see through. Snakes and lizards have slit-like pupils, while humans have round pupils. Therefore, if you see someone with very large pupils, they are not necessarily Sanpanku eyes!

Are these types “Sanpaku” eyes rare?

In Asia, Sanpaku eyes are quite common, despite their rarity in the Western world. From celebrities to everyday people, you can find Sanpaku eyes everywhere. One in three Japanese people has sanpaku eyes, for example.

I have already said before they are seen as a sign of good luck and are thought to bring people good fortune. Others consider them a sign of wisdom and intelligence.

It is important to look at science and how this can affect Chinese beliefs. According to Japanese tradition, people with sanpaku eyes are tough and have a focus in life.

According to theories, Lee Harvey Oswald the lone gunman had Sanpanku eyes. Oswald was a former Marine who had defected to the Soviet Union and then returned to the United States.
