Acquisition Information

Donated by the Anthony U. Leitner estate, 1997.

Biography

Anthony U. Leitner, known as 'Tony' to his friends, was born in 1934 in New York. He was admitted to the University of Chicago at the age of 15 and went to law school in New York City after graduation. He settled in Los Angeles and was a lawyer and real estate developer. After some involvement in politics, he became interested in spiritual growth through the Human Potential movement and various progressive psychological and spiritual teachers influenced by Hindu and Buddhist traditions.
In 1975 Leitner met Tarthang Tulku, a Tibetan lama who had come from India to Berkeley in 1969 and there started the first successful Tibetan Buddhist Dharma Center in the United States. As a result of this meeting, Leitner became a fervent supporter of Tibetan Buddhism. He never lost his interest in other paths to enlightenment, but this became his most important focus.
Leitner was a collector by nature, and his two-bedroom condominium in North Hollywood was filled with books, magazines, newsletters, tape recordings, videocassettes, as well as files of flyers, posters, photographs, prayers, stories, lecture notes, and program handouts. Texts that he thought to be particularly good were kept in multiple copies and filed so they could be sent as 'Dharma Care packages' to people who might benefit from reading them.
Leitner evidently had a premonition before his death in 1996, since he died sitting in meditation posture in his shrine room, a manner in which enlightened Tibetan Buddhist monks often die. Among his papers were many texts relating to P'howa, a meditation practice which helps people to guide their souls after death to the Pure Land of Dewachen, said to be the surest way to attain Nirvana.

Scope and Content

UCSB acquired the Anthony U. Leitner Collection from his estate in the summer of 1997. In the donation were books, tapes, ephemera, and manuscripts, including flyers, publicity announcements, conference handouts, newsletters, and legal documents relating to Tibetan Buddhism and other spiritual movements in North America. These materials form an extensive record of when ceremonies, transmissions of doctrine, lectures, and workshops were held, and by whom. Some Tibetan Buddhist materials were intended only for people who had received proper preparation from a qualified lama.
After learning about many different psychological and spiritual paths, in 1982 Leitner began to focus more on Tibetan Buddhism. Historically, Tibetan kings about twelve hundred years ago had invited Indian missionaries teaching the esoteric Tantric form of Buddhism into their land. Buddhism later disappeared in India, but this elaborate and rigorous path to enlightenment flourished in monasteries in the isolated land of Tibet until the 1950s, when soldiers from the People's Republic of China invaded the region in force. One result of this political action was that the Dalai Lama and other leaders of Buddhist monasteries, forced into exile in India, were more accessible to Americans than ever before. Needing support from the governments and people of the West, lamas ("teachers") from major monasteries traveled to Europe, Australia, and North America, to preach the Buddhist way to release from earthly suffering (the Dharma) and to found Tibetan Buddhist study and meditation centers.
Hundreds of photocopied texts, most produced by Dharma centers in the United States, are in the collection. Often photocopied and cut to 5 by 11 inches to match the traditional Tibetan book format, most are in traditional literary Tibetan, romanized Tibetan, and English. The romanized Tibetan enabled Americans not familiar with the Tibetan alphabet to say the prayers correctly, and the English translation enabled them to understand what they were saying.
Although over half of the collection is Tibetan Buddhism, Leitner never lost his interest in other spiritual paths. There are boxes of lecture transcripts from Robert Adams, an American pupil of the Indian holy man Sri Ramana Maharshi, and from Andrew Da Passano who taught how to stop aging, achieve realization on the Astral Plane, and control one's rebirth at the Temple of Esoteric Science in Los Angeles. Three Zen Buddhist centers in Los Angeles are represented in the collection, as is the Sufi Order in the West, an offshoot of Islamic mysticism.
The manuscript component of the Leitner Collection is organized into the following nine series. Additional biographical and other descriptive notes are included in the container list. Non-manuscript items have been cataloged separately and may be searched on Pegasus, the UCSB online catalog.

Additional Note

Founder of the Temple of Esoteric Science, Los Angeles. Born 1905, St. Petersburg, Russia; died 1993, Los Angeles. According to his biography, he spent most of the early part of his life in the United States and various parts of Europe. In Milan, he studied spiritual disciplines with Tulio Castellani from 1938 to 1945. After this, he lived in Mexico and moved to Los Angeles in 1977 where he founded the Temple of Esoteric Science (TES), which moved from Hollywood Boulevard to 1020 South La Jolla St. in 1982. His book, The Inner Silence, was co-written with Judith Plowden and published by Harper & Row in 1987. His teachings emphasized the importance of recognizing higher states of consciousness, including the Astral and Etheric, through meditation exercises. "The Way of the Magus" was a program offered by the TES in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
