Keys to Spiritual Awakening
This lens is dedicated to those on a spiritual path who are interested in living a more present, conscious and awakened life. It focuses on the teachings of Leonard Jacobson, who is a spiritual teacher, mystic, and a gifted healer. Leonard Jacobson is an excellent guide along the path of spiritual awakening. He teaches how to find your way out of a limited past and anxious future into the freedom of the present moment. Leonard teaches "A two-step path of awakening." The first step is about learning to become present and choosing to be present many times each day. The second step shows you how to become a master of your own mind and ego, so that you are no longer involuntarily pulled out of Presence. Ultimately, this comprehensive teaching of awakening opens the possibility to living your life as a free, loving, and fully empowered being. It is similar to the teaching shared by other nondual teachers, such as Ramana Maharshi, Osho, Eckhart Tolle, Gangaji, and Adyashanti, although Leonard brings unique insights into the nature of the mind and how to overcome the resistance of the ego. If this interests you, please read on!
Leonard Jacobson has been teaching people on a spiritual path how to free themselves from the mind and ego and relax into the present moment for over 25 years. He had the first of several powerful awakening experiences, beginning in 1981, which opened him up into the timeless state of Presence. This experience revealed to him a very clear way of awakening which he has shared with many others. It also opened in him a remarkable gift of healing which has been extremely useful for those caught in a difficult past.
These awakenings form the basis of his teachings. In 2007, Leonard Jacobson released his fourth book, "Journey into Now," which contains 25 years of teachings refined into a complete and comprehensive guide to spiritual awakening.
Leonard's methods for calming the mind and overcoming the resistance of the ego are clear, direct, and easy to follow. He always teaches from the state of Presence, addressing the part of you which is already whole and awake. I have been extremely fortunate to have been studying personally with Leonard for some time, and can tell you that his approach to spiritual awakening is very powerful and effective. This lens is a resource for those who are ready to awaken Now!

- Leonard Jacobson is a Master of Presence. He is also a remarkable teacher, mentor and guide who reveals keys to awakening that have, until now, been absent in most religions and spiritual traditions. Perhaps most importantly, he reveals a powerful and effective way of working with the ego that leads to liberation and true awakening. Leonard is a gifted healer and mystic, who can penetrate beyond the veils of illusion into the very heart of whatever is holding you in the past, in a way that leads to completion, healing and release.
"It is not enough to be present. You must also arise in mastery of your mind and ego. Only then will you become established in Presence. Only then will you be eternally free." - Leonard Jacobson

Liberating Jesus, the DVD
A film of Leonard Jacobson's one-man play about the life and true teachings of Jesus.
"A revolutionary view of Jesus, one that reveals his true message."
David Welch, producer of The Peaceful Warrior.
Liberating Jesus, the DVD is a film of the one man play, written and performed by Leonard Jacobson. Leonard plays the role of Jesus returned.
The time is now. Jesus has returned after a long and difficult journey since his death upon the cross. He has much to share with us about his life and death, and how his teaching has been misunderstood and misused.
In ACT 1, he speaks of his experience with John the Baptist, his opening into Oneness with God, his encounter with Satan, and his early experiences as a teacher of the Way. But then, the mood changes as he leads us through his experience of the crucifixion and shares with us what really happened to him on the cross. These revelations are both startling, and enlightening. He then reveals what has happened since his death upon the cross, and what he has had to endure to return to us.
In ACT 2, he reveals how his teachings have been misunderstood and misused, and he masterfully updates and clarifies his teaching. Sometimes forceful and direct, sometimes loving, and compassionate, Jesus is concerned about the current state of the world, and how the misuse of his teachings has contributed to human unconsciousness. He is insistent that Christians awaken to his true teaching, and that Jews fulfill their sacred covenant with God. What he shares offers guidance to Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists and anyone else interested in true awakening. Even atheists and agnostics will find it meaningful.
During the last fifty years, many people from the West have turned to the East looking for answers. This movie masterfully brings East and West together,
and it brings Christianity, Judaism and Islam into alignment. The returned Jesus shows us a way out of separation and conflict and reveals the Oneness at very heart of all paths and traditions.
Liberating Jesus! is not just a movie. It is an event in consciousness. It will either inspire and enlighten you, and delight you, or it will disturb you. It is very powerful. If you are a Christian who adheres rigidly to traditional beliefs, you probably should NOT view this movie.

- Wonderful lens. What a brilliant introduction into Leonard Jacobson's teachings via video instruction. I found myself nodding yes so often to words that put organization to many things I've been muddling through over the past few months in bits and pieces. The expression "oneness" was actually voiced in my head recently. "Presence" translated into other things like "living in the moment" and "live out loud" or "quiet the chatter" to my mind. This is very helpful to me. 5*'s. Thanks.

- This is a great lens and a great resource for anyone on a spiritual path. I had never heard of Leonard before, but I definitely resonate with his teachings. I particularly like what he says about the contamination of the word 'God."
I appreciate all the information and videos in this page. You've done an awesome job of presenting what is most certainly a Modern Mystic.

- Thank you for posting this. I've been a student of Leonard's teachings for the past three years and can also attest to the usefulness of his guidance. I have deepened into peace and rarely am "triggered" anymore but now consider these occasions opportunities to "arise in mastery" as Leonard says. Wishing every blessing to those who are awakening to their destiny to awaken fully in this lifetime.
