True to the Self is a selection of stories that share insights and experiences that took place in the presence of my Tibetan Masters during the 1980 s and 90 s. Living near a fully realised Being can have repercussions and effects that are often unexpected and life changing. If we are able to meet with an authentic Master and establish a meaningful connection with Him/Her, a sincere and diligent practitioner can swiftly burn up their karmic obstructions and clear the way to recognising their own true nature. The Master does not bestow realisation, He/She simply points the way to it and helps to dispel the obstacles that may be delaying it.
