Transcendental Meditation might have remained a relic of 1960s counterculture practiced by the elite few. Yet, there may be a “second coming”. In a fine article, Motherboard writes about how this resurgence is partly thanks to David Lynch. The film director (Twin Peaks, Mulholland Drive) has been a long-time proponent. His David Lynch Foundation for Consciousness-Based Education and World Peace just organized a benefit concert, including performances by TM converts such as Jerry Seinfeld, Sting and Kate Perry. They claim TM lowers blood pressure, reduces stress, and enhances creativity. As Lynch himself says, “Transcendental Meditation is life-transforming for the good. It’s change from within.”
