David Lynch and Meditation


The renown film director, David Lynch, shares his perceptions and experiences on mediation in a fascinating book called Catching the Big Fish: Meditation, Consciousness and Creativity.

Have a look at the Amazon site where you can read an excerpt from the text. Lynch begins his book with a phrase from the Bhavagad-Gita: 'He whose happiness is within, whose contentment is within, whose light is all within, that yogi being one with Brahman, attains eternal freedom in divine consciousness' (Lynch 2006:3).

Have you ever watched a David Lynch film? Do you think that meditating can affect one's creativity and in what ways? Do you think his spiritual practice is visible through his films?
