Dear Leonard,

You have helped me to transcend my ‘major illusions’ of the past and future that had for so many years hijacked my presence and made me feel as though I was nothing more than my future and past, each of which become daunting enough to a point where the present could no longer elude me, it was revealed, and in doing so my story was shown to be the illusion that it is.

Your teachings were at first difficult to fully understand, but after listening closely to so many of your teachings I’m finally understanding- by only finding presence for merely seconds, this became the seed which now grows and heals my understanding of our illusions of the future and past. I could write about this endlessly, for now though, I’ll leave you and others reading here an analogy that came to be me which has helped me and others to bring themselves present.

In essence, and hour glass holds the future in the top and the past in the bottom. All that we can ever experience is the presence, which is the thin middle of the hour glass where the sand passed through. This links shows a way to visualize this and then to dissolve the future and past.

Your words bring me into presence as my eyes fill with tears. I have been your student for many years and I am in awe how the experience of presence deepens and deepens. My life is an unfolding miracle moment to moment and I am deeply grateful to you for your dedication to reveal the way with such simplicity and clarity.

Love,
Fran
