Madara said the method and its origin in the chapter he awakens it: One who has the power of Samasara (Rinne) must approach the moon, awakening the third eye. He comments on this as he awakened it so I assume that's as official as it gets. How Kaguya got it is anyone's guess, but Madara proposed a method, based on the stone tablet, and then proved it.
