Quotes from Keith Dowman

Drukpa Kunley, the Master of Truth, himself said, 'If you think I have revealed any secrets, I apologize; If you think this a medley of nonsense, just enjoy it!' Such sentiments, here, I fully endorse!
~ Keith Dowman

~ Keith Dowman
Self-liberation' implies the instantaneous dissolution of whatever enters into awareness.

The future is only a projection of our present conceptions. The present itself vanishes as soon as we try to grasp it.
~ Keith Dowman

~ Keith Dowman
