Mindrolling - Raghu Markus - Ep. 141 - Kiley Jon Clark's Street Dharma

Kiley Jon Clark joins Mindrolling and introduces us to his amazing work with the homeless – not only offering them food and love but also teaching meditation practice on the streets and in the shelters.

Kiley tells his transformational story from an addictive cowboy lifestyle to the Buddhist path. He tells the magical story of meeting his Tibetan teacher, Lama Tulku Tsori Dechen Rinpoche, who literally went home with him right after they first met and turned his life around.

The conversations turns around the cultivation of fearlessness and relating to
the veil of illusion – “There is a force which is called by many names – the veil tricks us into seeing the world as a multitude of separate individual selves – but in fact, we are all One.”

Kiley also shares the concept of meditation as “becoming familiar with ourselves” – Kiley is a true original no BS soul walking the path – and his poetry seems like it was written by the ancients!
