About Kyle Neo
(aka Dharma Kueen)

Welcome to the core of my Queer Heartstrings!

I’m Kyle — a queer Buddhist writer walking the path where ancient wisdom meets radical self-acceptance. My writing explores what it means to live fully, love deeply, and suffer honestly, all while holding space for joy, queerness, and the messy beauty of being human.

But there’s more than just Kyle.

Enter: Dharma Kueen, My spiritual persona, my alter ego, my glittering response to the sacred. Inspired by drag culture and the playful power of language, “Dharma Kueen” is a pun on “drama queen.” Swap the drama for dharma, and you’ve got a bold, queer reimagining of spiritual life — one that wears robes and rhinestones with equal grace.

Why this name? Because we need a Dharma that’s big enough to hold all identities. Because enlightenment should be fabulously inclusive. Because queer folks deserve teachings that reflect our realities and celebrate our truths. And because, honestly, what’s more fierce than compassion?

Through essays, poetry, travelogues, and books I’ve written, I’m exploring Buddhist teachings not just as philosophy — but as lived, embodied, and fabulously queer experiences.

So whether you’re here for the wisdom, the wit, or the occasional sparkle of sass — welcome. This space is for you.

With metta and glitter,
Dharma Kueen
