We all know how beautiful his eyes were. But did u notice the whites show below them ? I tried to get straight-on shots, but a lot of them show the whites. There's a Japanese superstition called yin sanpaku. It says that if a person's eyes show the whites below the iris, the condition is yin, indicating that " the dangers come from outside. A person with yin sanpaku eyes will place himself or herself in dangerous or threatening situations unwittingly - and may not survive. " Is that crazy or what ?

I googled this, they show a lot of notable folks with the same eyes. A pic of MJ shows up too. Going to research it I like this kind of stuff.

Well I have whites above the iris so supposedly that means I'm considered a danger to the world?

I remember some years back somebody mentioned that about Michael Jackson's eyes but they didn't use the term yin sankapu. But said it derived from something else that I can't remember but it made sense when I read it. Maybe that poster will show up in this thread.

Yeah, besides them being crazy they're also know for being captivating. It makes sense when you think about it, a lot of notable celebs had/have them...

I was just going to say Aaliyah had them too.
Hmmm. I was going through all my selfies like a fool. I don't have those kind of eyes though.

People with large eyes have what is called 'ceiling eyes' because the eyes and iris are larger than average. All of these celebrities you posted besides Marilyn are known for their big, intense doe eyes especially Prince and MJ. I have similar eyes and I have this 'ceiling eyes' effect too. Very beautiful

I do not have them. That is an interesting coincidence though. It does make eyes more captivating.

Interesting that Tyra has them since she's all about the smiling with the eyes.

I always thought Michael and Prince had beautiful eyes . I believe in metaphysical aspects and take an interest in various subjects.

Sanpaku is a Japanese term meaning “three whites” refers to eyes in which the white space above or below the iris is visible.

If the white shows below the iris, the condition is yin, indicating that the dangers come from outside. A person with yin sanpaku eyes will place himself or herself in dangerous or threatening situations unwittingly- and may not survive.

If the white shows above, the condition is yang, and the danger comes from within. A person with yang sanpaku eyes is extremely violent, filled with rage, and likely poses a threat to himself and others. He may destroy himself, but may also take others with him.


The macrobiotic philosopher George Ohsawa wrote a book called ‘You Are All Sanpaku’ and dedicated it to John Kennedy and Abraham Lincoln, among others. Ohsawa said they were all seriously sanpaku and thus suffered from impaired judgment that indicated poor health and premature death. These people were excessively yin sanpaku. All of them accepted danger, but were unable to survive it.

You learn something new everyday, Ive been googling up some more info and what struck out to me about yin sanpaku eyes people they are, according to the Japanese suspicion prone to addictions, sugar, grains, alcohol and drugs..in particular prescription drugs.

Yang sanpaku eyes people have a pre-disposition to a violent and murderous nature. Notable people with sanpaku;

Adolf Hitler
Charles Manson
Ted Bundy
Osama Bin Laden
Marilyn Monroe
Sylvester Stallone
Jill Dando
Princess Diana

Am I the only one who sees this as a common trait and not an anomaly, like being able to roll your tongue?! The larger the eyes seems to be the common trait here. All my siblings and I have it. Did I miss something?

I think simply having the whites show on either side of the iris is most common, but I'm gonna start paying more attention to it.

I'm confused. Are you talking about the white highlights, especially in brown eyes, that are reflected from the super bright lights behind the photographer onto the subject's eyes?

Hitler is a great example of a lunatic, but his eyes are more yin sanpaku than yang.

I read somewhere that seeing the whites showing underneath the pupil of the eye meant that the person was spiritually evolved (gazing heavenwards). But if Hitler had them, guess the author was wrong.
