When I was 17 yrs old in 1978 I really began to struggle as a result of yrs of drug misuse, adolescent angst, poor concentration, parental alcoholism .... the usual. I was basically rescued by TM that year. Today I worked a 12 hour shift in a Toronto emergency department where I have been employed as a registered nurse since 1989. I worked as a paramedic for 8 yrs before the nursing gig. Over 42 years in emergency departments. It has been an eventful , challenging career to put it mildly. But today, at age 63, I still value my work, the work of my many colleagues and the important validity of every one of my patients and personal relationships as much as ever. I am in excellent physical health and also enjoy a well balanced life away from my workplace. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that I simply would not have made it nearly this far without TM. I still meditate and would encourage others to explore this further. Mr. Lynch draws it all up very well in this clip. If you're still not convinced, trust the Beatles.
Very true. I myself am a fan of both The Beatles as well as TM. Maybe it's just me. But it seems like the style of the music of The Beatles actually shifted in another direction after they began practicing TM.
Wow, I actually learned TM in 78 also. I’m also 63 now. Unfortunately, I didn’t continue with it, because my brothers girlfriend at the time kept bugging me to tell her my mantra. Unfortunately, I did, then every time after that when I tried to meditate, it made me think of her. My life ended up being fueled by drug and alcohol dependence leading to major depression and guilt. Your path is what I wish I had followed, but I’m definitely inspired to try again. 🙏🏻
I agree. I'm not the best at explaining things, especially the principles behind TM. This video is a great asset for anyone curious about TM. I started almost five years ago and it's the greatest investment I've ever made.
@@stanlee-eq7lu genuinely curious, what would u reckon it would cost a beginner to learn the official TM technique from an authorized TM instructor, to receive the mantra & be able to practice TM meditation on their own, what would be the minimum expense, 2 to 3 thousand $U.S.? & why would it not be on a sliding scale or is it? I know I could go check their website but just wanted to ask a random commenter(with positive review) for a estimate, thank you sir, in advance🙏🕊
I started meditating regularly after my father passed away. I felt so calm. One day i was part of the one. I instantly felt love surrounded me and it was wonderful. I felt a deep connection with everything. The mountain, the people , animal everything. I felt elevated. I knew i was born into heaven.
@@RedBlue-ns5csask a real monk, and the answer to the rest is it's like exercise if you need five times a day and it's not harming you do five times. It's not something you can do so wrong it doesn't work. It's more confronting your inner world then just breathing and whatever.
Ohh my goodness i was numbed while watching it, he put everything in my mind, he made me understand this as Einstein said if you can't teach something to a child, you yourself really don't know it. Absolute perfection, david lynch
I was planning on watching this whole video through and was about 10 minutes in when he mentioned the word DAO… this word has been a thing in my life for about a decade and could never find anything relevant. I gasped hearing him say this word and I feel so deeply connected to something beyond me right now I’m kind of freaked out. I needed this video. Wow
i discovered "the oneness" on psychedelics when i was 17. then, 13 years later i found it again when i was meditating at a buddhist detox center. it is the real deal.
@@steffen2165 it's impossible to do anything against nature lol humans are the highest & purest expressions of nature (though very few of us feel that way, part of humanity's sickness) and realizing your inner bliss & connection to the divine is called enlightenment. Like Lynch said, it's one-ness.
David explains it so well. Everything he's saying is 100% true. It really is the best thing that anyone could ever want to do for themselves and those around them. Meditate and find out for yourself!
@@timendrizzi2180 it's unique to the individual. It'd do you no good to hear his mantra. It's not a phrase or a word necessarily. It's just a trick people use sometimes. Without outer stimulus, your brain begins to think.. focusing on this.. noise.. or whatever, stops you from thinking. Your brain requires stimulus. And you aren't letting it have any. Your body isn't giving it any more info.. so it stops trying to gather any more. Slowly.. your mind forgets it has a body.. and you begin to detatch. So the mind turns inwards. And you are completely awake during this. You make connections and examine things from this persective.. and it changes you. It's sitting around quietly for a few minutes. Whats the risk?
@@timendrizzi2180 this comment made me smile, in a good way. Don't search for anything, there is nothing to find. Nothing from above the surface can take you below the surface, you are what you are looking for. My "technique" per se, whenever I feel "separated" or too stimulated by external factors, I go in by going into a quiet place and focusing on my pulse, progressively.
The word of God plainly teaches that man is spiritually dead in sins and trespasses against God. This is why the Lord Jesus Christ said “you must be born again”. This is being born from above, meaning of God, by His Spirit. You must be reconciled to God. The bad news is you cannot do this by yourself. And far worse, you stand under the judgement and condemnation of God because of your sin against Him. The good news is the coming of the Son of God in the Person of Jesus. He came as the promised Saviour (Messiah) of the world, the Christ. He took on our human nature to live and die in our place. In His crucifixion, Jesus took upon Himself the judgement we deserve for our sins, paying the price in our place. When He rose again from the dead three days later this was affirmed, just as He and the prophets before Him had said. Now He reigns as Lord and King in heaven and brings salvation to all who call upon His Name. God commands all people everywhere to repent, turning to Him, and to believe in this Saviour. The promise is the forgiveness of sins and eternal life. This is true peace and true joy, in the knowledge of God Himself.
Such a great video. I have been practicing TM since 1978. It is the greatest thing I have ever done for myself in my entire life. I am so grateful. And it made me a better mother. I made sure my daughter learned TM as soon as she was old enough. I get such a kick out of David Lynch. I also love his TV and film work. Blessings to All. Jai Guru Dev.
Negative emotions are just as important as positive emotions. Don't try and deny these, get comfortable with being uncomfortable and experience them and learn to be one with them. Be mindful with your behavior.
@Matt Rupert Not to butt in *ahem* ... but might i say, acknowledge the emotions, feel them and let them go as Elizabeth said. Then through the intuitive sense feel what the emotion is derived from or what caused it the human perception can go beyond our own experience. At times you may, from no immediate explaination feel an unusual emotion. Explore it you may sense another individuals pain or otherwise strong emotional response. Test your abilities and express yourself, play with them they have a wide variety of utility to the human being if used correctly and or used in response to a problem or again strong emotion.
The simple universal mantra is: "I am not the body (inhale) I am not even the mind (exhale)." I heard this in a guided meditation YT video and I have been using it ever since. And yes, after some long enough time, you can experience all the benefits mentioned in the video.
It's so nice to see another person who writes in lowercase, uppercase, and cursive all in the same project. Sometimes I feel like my brain isn't operating properly as I do that so often.
I got there once, without trying. The extatic feeling lasted several minutes - maybe 5 minutes. I didn’t want to move in case the feeling went away. Gradually it faded. I would do anything to get that feeling back. Indescribable extacy feeling - connectedness to everything.
Something happened to me when I was meditating. I felt like I was slipping to another place and I liked it until a face appeared basically right on top of my own face, staring straight at me, and it scared the shit out of me and I opened my eyes and got ripped straight back into the real world. Has anything like that happened to you while you were meditating? I knew that the face was thinking "what the fuck are you doing here." And it was more animalistic than human but it certainly had the intelligence of a human.
Just watching this made me feel as if I'd slipped into a parallel dimension for a little while. My whole body resonates with this Truth. And now I have an even deeper level of admiration and respect for this guy.
This is the kind of teaching that I've heard many times, but everyone I ever heard teach it- while they knew the concepts and words, had clearly never achieved it. With David Lynch I can fully believe he's transcended, that he's felt and touched it for himself. It makes it all hit very different.
To explain what cant be explained but only expiereienced directly, (like in the example of the donout) is an art in itself. Imagine a world where this is taught in school…
I love David Lynch! His movies are confounding and fantastic! I’m a meditator and have been for about 10 years. What he’s saying is absolutely true. Meditation can change your life. It has changed mine from alcohol and drug addiction to freedom from those things and more.
People keep saying its placebo. But i dont think that placebo can help u forget those hard drugs . Maybe it still is idk but i dont want it to be . I really want to believe that it's something special
@@nikakevkhishvili4785 It IS something special. I don’t personally subscribe to transcendental meditation but I go more toward the nonduality path. They share a lot of things in common. Not only has it helped me to stay away from alcohol and drugs, but it helped me get through losing my 28 yr old son in a violent and unexpected way a year ago. I’ve also lost 2 other family members to whom I was close in the past couple of months. I stopped suffering when I had my realization of who and what we really are. This happened to me in January. My life will never be the same. Life is a breeze. 😊
@@nikakevkhishvili4785placebo is a power in and of itself and you can learn to use it. A man who was sick was given orange juice and was told it was medicine and he was cured, if you believe something with all of your heart it will become reality
@@nikakevkhishvili4785people who comment that meditation is placebo have no idea the amount of bitter self darkness one has to confront, love, and embrace in order to transcend.

*5 seconds into the video* David Lynch: This is a donut. Me: My life has changed forever. Thank you David, for having such a profoundly large impact on my life. I can rest easy now.
Jesus Christ, it was just a joke people. Sounds like you all need some meditation for yourselves, because you seriously shouldn’t be this angry over a simple joke.
Half my life ago I was so happy. I practiced TM ritually. I loved life. Then, life hit me. Car wreck left me disabled, I saw abuse of animals and of each other, my income went from $200k to zip, lost my job and home, became homeless with 3 dogs one of whom died of cancer while living in my van. Sure wish I could find that bliss again. I've tried yoga, TM, all kinds of therapy, all kinds of treatments, all kinds of alternate healing, yet I can't find the way back to happiness. I'm in my 60's and life has become really sad. I think security and money in the bank helps a lot. I didn't used to think this way, but I wonder now, was I really happy before, or did I just have what I needed to live comfortably?
Wow, thank you for sharing. I am skeptical of Lynch's teachings here especially because the beginning part about quantum physics is just wrong, doesn't make sense. And yea, you know, when was the last time you saw a guru or spiritual teacher that didn't have a comfortable living? Man does not live one bread alone, but man does not live on spirit alone either.
You practiced meditation, but did you understand it's source? Sure, we need food as human beings, but where do we go when none is left? Anyhow, I surely wish you good health and happiness wherever your path leads you. Check in with Peter Levine and a community maybe? The community is the ultimate form of security for most human beings.
Understand your thoughts, thanks for sharing. Maslow reckoned we all need some things to make the best of our lives; security and shelter are big parts. We also don't tend to be ready for changes, and as life progresses our relationships with others change and like you've illustrated, times can get tough, sometimes really tough. It might be that you've got a book to write? It may even be a counterpoint to the 'things get better if you do xyz' happiness culture. It may be if you retrace your story, the things that you view as happy then, may have a different tone. Sell your story, maybe make a few pennies and and see what others think.. whatever happens, I know that hope and despair are next door neighbours and they borrow bread and milk from each other. They never really live alone.
“If there wasn’t any consciousness, we wouldn’t exist, and if we did, we wouldn’t know it” That is without doubt one of the most profound things I have ever heard in my life
do you work for free? // there is a tradition that says when you give something away you take on Karma // also they're selling meditation.. you have to do the enlightenment part
I love it. Davids voice, the subtle background music and the black and white picture are creating an magical atmosphere that slowly soak you in that explanation. Meditation is the "key" let's use it!
I don’t care about meditation after a whole lifetime of trying to get into it, but hearing David talk about anything he’s into is meditative. So this is a win-win.
@Tery genuine questions- what part of my impression was the contrary part that struck you? generosity, other... him? The artist part? Sorry, just couldn't parse what you mean.
Yeah that’s basically what it is but in my experience it’s a little more accurate to say it’s the difference between knowing and understanding. We know we should be kind to one another but for some people they might ask why? This would be the understanding part and it’s because you are one with the world around you. You, your friend and enemies are all you. You wouldn’t want to hurt yourself right? So why hurt a tree, why hurt your enemy both of which are you on a fundamental level.
I just wanted to say a heartfelt THANK YOU to the David Lynch foundation for your scholarship for teaching me TM. You changed my life and helped me unlock the potential of my brain through global brain coherence. I see Agent Cooper in an entirely new light now. Thank You for the training.
@@mauro8063 Look up TM or Transcendental meditation in your city. They might have a program and not sure if the David Lynch foundation is still doing scholarships. I was in a program that offered it. Either way TM is worth the effort. Good luck.
The consciousness ball at 9 minutes explains why when you grow up you look back and wonder why you believed the things you believed as a child. You realize how closeminded you were in your younger days. It's cool to see that you can actively participate in expanding that.
true but i dont need tm for that ..i defintly. got that. extreem selfhate..and..looking back i lost all interst. in..what i used to love..mind u..just getting 100% sober .and doing something new. be it tm or meditating for free or wing chun kung fu..or yoga..does that too..tm might be the easiest way. so i do recommemd it. however i think the 1000 us. keeps people from getting into it. so i definitly think..its a ripp off..but for us. whats easier? a 1000 us? and easy..or 10 days vipassana. 14 hours a day of pure hell .or a few years of free yoga? hell if u can afford it. do it .its really easy and safe..unlike tantra yoga kung fu..vipa..ect ect. all are ways to your true selves. and after 30 years in india and tibet and endless. trying..i.must admit. tm. is. sooo easy with great results .hey u can go and. do yoga 3 hours a day for years for free..and maybe..you reach the same goal. tm is just the easy way. believe me..a 1000 us is like a bargain compared to the veey dangerous extreem tantra..or the years of hitting briks for kung fu.. tm is thruly...a rich mans way to easy meditation and ure self..grab it..or. go and study shaolin ..with exteem.pain. the goal is the same..just a differnt way
I remember watching this before my spiritual awakening thinking it was really obtuse and way to out there for me, but now I can intimately relate to every word he's saying...
When you meditate long enough, everything one by one fall apart like the guy tried to explain. Especially the name, things don’t matter anymore. You realize that name is the man made.
@@christopherpederson1021 there is nothing wrong with man-made. now you are gonna say, "but I didn't say anything is wrong with man-made". yes you did.
This. We're trapped in a prison of words. A magic spell - is just to spell. A grimoire is a fancier way of saying grammar. Terrence McKenna talked about this, and a classical philologist Bruno Snell wrote about how Greek poetry is actually responsible for heightening our consciousness. As Oscar Wilde put it, "Life imitates Art, more than Art Imitates Life"
Seriously.. I saw a clip of this video on TikTok, laying down…and accidentally slipped off. I then found myself with my phone taking pictures of my front garden of a house with beautiful columns. a place where the dogs of my past were there. I was listening to this video subconsciously because the reel kept repeating itself. I touched there fur. I felt it. They were so happy to see me.. the place was so perfect and detailed..beautiful. I saw the sky… it had a few clouds in the distance I mentioned a good rain for the garden is coming… being a light sprinkle… I told Barry and the dogs it is time to go inside… we all went in and I realized I wanted to hug the dogs in this place I said to them “I am thinking of you always”and “we will be together again soon and I will try and return again.” Then I opened my eyes. I started to lay back down and do it again… the place was blissful. Max and Biscuit… my pet friends… missed but I know I will do this again many times. Then at this earthly death we will be together and one again
David, you are an excellent teacher because you explain things visually and on paper that shows you are knowledgeable since you can’t go back and erase what you just said. Thank you.
Im 7 minutes in and he's explaining this like a normal person. Anyone else I've ever heard trying to explain meditation uses language that's out of the grasp for most people, and likely because they don't have the accurate language to describe the experience themselves. Thank you David!
This is the most beautiful and accurate explanation of my own experiences with meditation over the last two years. When you achieve this state, the inner light and truth is laid out before you. The feeling of fullness and bliss is indescribable, and all doubt in higher conciousness is simply removed. It is profound and life changing and can only be understood by experiencing it. No god bothering, organised mainstream religion that is merely an extension of darkness control will ever deliver this whole truth, and it can not be fully articulated verbally by those who have experienced it.. Individual spirituality through meditation is key! Peaceful travels.
@@An-Alien-On-Earth There is plenty of meditation/frequency music here in YT. Find something that resonates with you (not all of it will), you can generally feel in a few minutes if the track is for you. Listen with headphones, relax and empty your mind. Wait for the music to bring in shapeshifting colours and visions, and just go with the flow. The rest will come in time. Easier said than done, I know, but perseverance is key! Here are my two GO TO tracks to hopefully help start your journey. Good luck. th-cam.com/video/TxkyFCeWAxs/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/NmAHY_tg9Es/w-d-xo.html
It took me over 50 years to get it and it's as easy as walking on water! I've never tried transcendental meditation but I know that the bigger secret is to NEVER WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING! 🤗😁💖
Sit quietly for 3 minutes just with eyes closed , then repeat the silent mantra in your mind ( try AHUM ) for 14 to 20 minutes , before coming out of the meditation , stop repeating the mantra and just focus on breath for 3 minutes , that’s it ....repeat morning and evening for 20 minutes .
I had an experience once while in deep meditation. Suddenly i felt like someone is watching me, it was very strong feeling. And then i felt a presence of someone incredibly huge and majestic, but it wasn't evil or thrilling in any was, quite the opposite - it was friendly, warm, loving. And then another sensation came, it's hard to describe, but my consiousness decodes it as "I SEE YOU". And then i came back to reality. I will never forget that.
This was explained so perfectly. It’s also been my experience since meditating, and highly recommend it for everyone. Life changing. And inevitably, world changing.
makes you realise why the higher powers in the world keep us all believing that we are different, if we were all at peace, nobody in particular would have power over the people
@Matthew Minors - the Higher Powers don't keep us believing that we're different. Human Free Will does that. Human Free Will does that through manipulating the messages of the Churches, saying: "We are right, and they are wrong." God (the Creator) never said anything about "Right or Wrong" - He gave us the rules and said: "You have Free Will to choose how to create your life." All Faith, in the end, points back to God, or Source, or the Creator, or the Higher Powers.
@@aeternuseldritch9545 there is only Natural Law, and acting under Free Will. You have the free will to be morally good, or immoral and evil. It is foolish to say, "The Higher Powers don't try to divide us". 🤣🤣 They DEFINITELY do, just look around. I'm honestly blown away that you could state that they don't try to divide, when division IS their agenda. Divide and Conquer. They want us to be immoral and arguing amongst ourselves.
@@aeternuseldritch9545 Not to mention that any religion only gives you the exoteric information, most people don't know the scale of its depth. Research the esoteric and the occult, it is the information that is concealed and used over us, and most of the population understanding it is the only way out of our mental and spiritual slave-state. That is the truth, end of story.
@@aeternuseldritch9545 GOD gave us Natural Law and Free Will. NOT the Church. NOT the Bible. Talk about Esoteric Christianity at your church and see what happens. People will turn away, unable to think critically, and will fear it and believe it evil. Because they are foolish, divided, and swindled by the beast. You are as well if you truly think they don't try to divide us. That's ALL they do. Man, your comment really upset me for some reason. I wish we all didn't live on damned TH-cam.
Mannnnnnnnnn this was needed I appreciate you David Lynch definitely a legend in my book never will I forget you man been looking for a video like this like and the energy I gain from it is what I was trying to seek for the longest!!!
This is a total and complete treasure.... thank you so much for sharing your vision of this state of being that all of us can reach if we do the work :)
I’ve only fallen into a transcendental state through lsd a few times. What’s so strange and difficult about that is your Atma or true self is very apparent, but the truth is you’re not really earning it through acid. The only way to truly achieve it is to earn it through self reflection and meditation. The reason everyone says the feel this on acid though is because it shows you what’s actually possible within yourself, but it’s your job to reach out and grab it. After all it’s all atoms
Loved this! what they dont want you to know - becuz its so powerfull beyond measure 🤩 been a drug addict for years becuz bad cirkumstances in childhood with toxic parents, low selfesteem. Im 3 months clean now, and I dont ever go back. I have forgiven my parents and myself and every lost soul i have encountered along my journey. Will live the rest of my life in peace and harmony and meditate everyday. I use sleephypnosis during nights to reprogram my mind so i can live to full potential 😋
Such a clear comprehensible description of matter, mind, consciousness and how to live to life. As a practising Nichiren Buddhist there are so many similarities and it's so encouraging to see the TM group doing such great work for human happiness. I hope your classes spread across national curriculums throughout the world. ありがとうございました❣
Thank you for sharing and changing the world for so may people. This information is real and it is life altering. The Peace and bliss he speaks of is beyond words.

You should be careful with LSD. Psilocybin mushrooms are the only thing which can be picked and eaten without preparation to have this kind of experience. They work, and science shows they have a very low potential for harm. Not to mention shrooms have been tried and tested by our ancestors for as long as you can imagine.
@@user-or4ut2qi3q LSD and psilocybin are both nontoxic. Be aware of set & setting, safer use, comfortable surroundings etc. They both have therapeutic potential and are both well studied
I was an atheist not too long ago. I was guided by teacher of the forest. Somehow they induced an altered state of consciousness. I now believe they induced my pineal gland to release DMT. It was wonderful and I journeyed. I am now highly spiritual and meditate almost every day. We are all connected.
...and the problem is, even though the Answer is within, we're always told that the answer is in a deity, a son of God, an immaculate virgin mother, a statue, a book, a clan of scholars, a pantheon of titans, an external thing. Thanks David. I know you are right.
Ive been experiencing this.. and this is what i call "Intimacy With God" .. Becoming one spirit with God.. 1cor 6:17 .. the peace, Joy is unexplainable, you just cant explain it to people, its addicting.. Becoming one with God is the Unified field..
You should go for it. I started the TM course one week ago because of Lynch and it blew my mind how quickly and powerfully I noticed a difference. And I've tried literally hundreds of different meditations, healing modalities, natural remedies etc. It's the real deal
Consciousness or Enlightenment can't be bought, consciousness or awarenes is not from the mind. So it was not an explaination of consciousness as it doesn't have attributes. It's from the "heart" and no money can manufacture this, you have it already (tat tvam ási). If someone tries to sell this manufactured consciousness to you know it to be a cult and/or scam. #All you need is love
Meditation has proven effects on the brain, and is highly recommended. The 'Transcendental' aspect of meditation really is an attempt to describe the sensations of light and space in our head when doing meditation. This is very calming and really alters your overall experience. The particular meditation David Lynch does is repetition of a word or 'mantra', but the first and most basic meditation is to focus on your breathing. That is called 'Prana' , the breath and life-force. No need for anything external to be introduced.
I heard that meditation on your breath(prana) is a better meditation than transcendental, which focuses on a mantra connected to your external reality. What do you think?
The "transcendental" aspect of TM refers to the experience of pure consciousness, which is beyond thought and feeling. It transcends relativity. It is Beyond. It is the Absolute, the Unbounded, the Source, course and Goal of all evolution and progress in life. It goes far beyond any vague feelings of "spaciousness". Meditation techniques that focus on breathing are vainly attempting to mimick the physiological effects of transcending during TM. These techniques confuse the Path with the Goal. It is noticed that breathing naturally comes to a standstill during TM and they try to copy that by focusing on the breathing. Needless to say, for most people, this is counterproductive!
I have alot of good effect of meditation but it has also made my anxity worse or made me feel like " fear is a magnet" it makes me to senseble where i react to every sound every this and that, it has good effects but it made some of my worrying ( at night) when you hear a random sound etc made me more anxious for " bringing up all the anxity" and me not being able to deal with it, and thats not always a good thing, ... i would say, do it in moderation spesially if you are very sensetive as a person ( no offence to meditation, its better to meditate then to do nothing of course, i still meditate 10min a day.)
@@bryanbenson6551 transcendental meditation doesn't focus. Maharishi called it "The Technique of No Technique". Focusing holds the mind on the relative level. The point is to transcend that. You won't do that by focusing on anything... breath, mantra, heartbeat ...
A lot of fluffy lovely words and notions in this video but mostly without much meaning. Meditation does not need silly " magical words" given by "mystical gurus". Trying to achieve states of "bliss consciousness" through repeating mantras is a diversion from the path of coming to see the mind as it really is. Bliss and joy etc are just tempting but ultimately illusory mental/emotional conditions, to be recognised and then let go off. That is my understanding. Plus, I don't trust an organisation that guards its "magic words" and only grants people access at a price. I'm glad that modern psychology is sorting out the ancient techniques that are valid and verifiable from those that are mixed up in mystical mumbjumbo like TM. Still, if it works form you and helps you live a peaceful and compassionate life, then that is great!
So well explained . I understand it much better now. I've been listening to the audio book I AM THAT. The more I listen the clearer it becomes. Thanks for the video. The world would change for better if more people understood that.
yea and he is better explaining the unexplainable then making movies who are much worse unwatchable just as nick cave turned into a wanky jezusfreak. making sound of music bwa. ghostteen crap. after getting into tm..oh and his family seems to rather die then to listen too his endless yapping. oooooom
@@ihatespam2 Are you sure? :) cause your "iam" is same as mine "Iam" and same as 8bil Being in Humans :D right now we are at 89% of sleeping being focused so much on Human Experience than they things they are just "humans"
Yes, I really enjoyed this documentary, Mister David Lynch, thank you very much. How nice to now have this wonderful general view in black-on-white on one piece of paper. Apart from this: TM is not the only way of meditating in my opinion. And: Thanks to Rodrigo Notari for uploading.
I did the whole mindfulness thing fairly seriously for around 4 weeks and got fairly “good” at it. I know that’s not the point but anyway, one day I started seeing flickering and flashing lights popping off in my vision. My eyes were open, literally and it weirded me out a little bit. I did it for pain management and if you need it for that purpose do the body scan meditation. It’s hard to understand unless you’ve done it seriously and correctly.
The 'white light' is something you have to experience to believe. It's a state of TM where you find yourself in an ocean of endless brilliant white light. It stretches inward and outward forever. You feel as though you are traveling faster than light itself. It's warm and beautiful beyond description. The inner energy of your nervous system literally connects with the boundless outer universe and you're traveling! Yet you return completely rested with a profound feeling of well being. It's not sex or psychedelics or sleep. It's a natural state of being. It's real!
beautiful, profound, powerful, and much needed wisdom and knowledge, people should learn and put into practice, thank you David lynch for this clear and meaningful presentation 🕊️🙏😄
He speaks of a feeling I have been blessed with many times and explains everything I have known but cannot express clearly to others. More people need to see this ❤️
this is the only thing David will ever explain to us, so lets be grateful
He was saving it all up for this.
So true 😂🤣😂

When I was 17 yrs old in 1978 I really began to struggle as a result of yrs of drug misuse, adolescent angst, poor concentration, parental alcoholism .... the usual. I was basically rescued by TM that year. Today I worked a 12 hour shift in a Toronto emergency department where I have been employed as a registered nurse since 1989. I worked as a paramedic for 8 yrs before the nursing gig. Over 42 years in emergency departments. It has been an eventful , challenging career to put it mildly.
But today, at age 63, I still value my work, the work of my many colleagues and the important validity of every one of my patients and personal relationships as much as ever. I am in excellent physical health and also enjoy a well balanced life away from my workplace. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that I simply would not have made it nearly this far without TM. I still meditate and would encourage others to explore this further. Mr. Lynch draws it all up very well in this clip. If you're still not convinced, trust the Beatles.
Im in the same boat you were in, also 17. Hope this can help me
@@renbanana2684 same here, 21 and currently hungover
Very true. I myself am a fan of both The Beatles as well as TM. Maybe it's just me. But it seems like the style of the music of The Beatles actually shifted in another direction after they began practicing TM.

Wow, I actually learned TM in 78 also. I’m also 63 now. Unfortunately, I didn’t continue with it, because my brothers girlfriend at the time kept bugging me to tell her my mantra. Unfortunately, I did, then every time after that when I tried to meditate, it made me think of her. My life ended up being fueled by drug and alcohol dependence leading to major depression and guilt. Your path is what I wish I had followed, but I’m definitely inspired to try again. 🙏🏻
This man is a natural story teller. On top of that beautiful hand writing. I am grateful for this video.
I agree. I'm not the best at explaining things, especially the principles behind TM. This video is a great asset for anyone curious about TM. I started almost five years ago and it's the greatest investment I've ever made.
@@stanlee-eq7lu
genuinely curious,
what would u reckon it would cost a beginner to learn the official TM technique from an authorized TM instructor, to receive the mantra & be able to practice TM meditation on their own, what would be the minimum expense, 2 to 3 thousand $U.S.?
& why would it not be on a sliding scale or is it?
I know I could go check their website
but just wanted to ask a random commenter(with positive review) for a estimate, thank you sir, in advance🙏🕊

I started meditating regularly after my father passed away. I felt so calm. One day i was part of the one. I instantly felt love surrounded me and it was wonderful. I felt a deep connection with everything. The mountain, the people , animal everything. I felt elevated. I knew i was born into heaven.

How do you meditate, how much, how often. Please answer
Then you've misunderstood meditating because there's nothing to do with heaven in meditation. It's a feeling not a place.
@@RedBlue-ns5csask a real monk, and the answer to the rest is it's like exercise if you need five times a day and it's not harming you do five times. It's not something you can do so wrong it doesn't work. It's more confronting your inner world then just breathing and whatever.

i discovered "the oneness" on psychedelics when i was 17. then, 13 years later i found it again when i was meditating at a buddhist detox center. it is the real deal.
Indeed.
So the true question is, what else is real, if anything and what are the definitions and boundaries of 'reality' or more precisely 'realness'.
"Reality is anything that you believe"
What is the name of the Buddhist detox center please?? 🙏🏿☀️🙏🏿
Taking drugs is against oneself and nature
@@steffen2165 it's impossible to do anything against nature lol humans are the highest & purest expressions of nature (though very few of us feel that way, part of humanity's sickness) and realizing your inner bliss & connection to the divine is called enlightenment. Like Lynch said, it's one-ness.
David explains it so well. Everything he's saying is 100% true. It really is the best thing that anyone could ever want to do for themselves and those around them. Meditate and find out for yourself!
But he did not say what the MANTRA is.
ANY MANTRA WORKS AND YOU CAN CHOOSE YOUR OWN
@@timendrizzi2180 it's unique to the individual. It'd do you no good to hear his mantra.
It's not a phrase or a word necessarily. It's just a trick people use sometimes.
Without outer stimulus, your brain begins to think.. focusing on this.. noise.. or whatever, stops you from thinking.
Your brain requires stimulus. And you aren't letting it have any. Your body isn't giving it any more info.. so it stops trying to gather any more. Slowly.. your mind forgets it has a body.. and you begin to detatch.
So the mind turns inwards. And you are completely awake during this. You make connections and examine things from this persective.. and it changes you.
It's sitting around quietly for a few minutes. Whats the risk?
I practice transcendent meditation (TM) that he’s talking about. You are given a special mantra, unique to you, by a TM instructor.
@@timendrizzi2180 this comment made me smile, in a good way. Don't search for anything, there is nothing to find. Nothing from above the surface can take you below the surface, you are what you are looking for.
My "technique" per se, whenever I feel "separated" or too stimulated by external factors, I go in by going into a quiet place and focusing on my pulse, progressively.
the most beautiful thing with this video is that I exactly get everything he is saying and that, is what brings me hope in myself and humanity
Enjoy the journey..spread love n joy to others

The word of God plainly teaches that man is spiritually dead in sins and trespasses against God.
This is why the Lord Jesus Christ said “you must be born again”. This is being born from above, meaning of God, by His Spirit.
You must be reconciled to God. The bad news is you cannot do this by yourself. And far worse, you stand under the judgement and condemnation of God because of your sin against Him.
The good news is the coming of the Son of God in the Person of Jesus. He came as the promised Saviour (Messiah) of the world, the Christ. He took on our human nature to live and die in our place. In His crucifixion, Jesus took upon Himself the judgement we deserve for our sins, paying the price in our place. When He rose again from the dead three days later this was affirmed, just as He and the prophets before Him had said.
Now He reigns as Lord and King in heaven and brings salvation to all who call upon His Name. God commands all people everywhere to repent, turning to Him, and to believe in this Saviour. The promise is the forgiveness of sins and eternal life.
This is true peace and true joy, in the knowledge of God Himself.

No reason to pay for it though
Negative emotions are just as important as positive emotions. Don't try and deny these, get comfortable with being uncomfortable and experience them and learn to be one with them. Be mindful with your behavior.
Indeed. But don't dwell in them or ruminate. It's not the emotion itself, but the refractory period that causes the problem
@@elisabethseaton6521 absolutely. What a great addition, thank you.
@Matt Rupert Not to butt in *ahem* ... but might i say, acknowledge the emotions, feel them and let them go as Elizabeth said. Then through the intuitive sense feel what the emotion is derived from or what caused it the human perception can go beyond our own experience. At times you may, from no immediate explaination feel an unusual emotion. Explore it you may sense another individuals pain or otherwise strong emotional response. Test your abilities and express yourself, play with them they have a wide variety of utility to the human being if used correctly and or used in response to a problem or again strong emotion.
Thanks for the method but is the method and the one using the method the same process?
Absolutely, but keeping them in balance and using them as a survival mean and not dwelling in them is the key!
The simple universal mantra is: "I am not the body (inhale) I am not even the mind (exhale)." I heard this in a guided meditation YT video and I have been using it ever since. And yes, after some long enough time, you can experience all the benefits mentioned in the video.

Not sure David Lynch is a good yardstick for a properly operating brain. 😂
David Lynch is a genius.
He marches to the beat of his own drum
😅
I got there once, without trying. The extatic feeling lasted several minutes - maybe 5 minutes. I didn’t want to move in case the feeling went away. Gradually it faded. I would do anything to get that feeling back. Indescribable extacy feeling - connectedness to everything.
Meditation is the royal road to it. You must slowly come to conscious understanding of what was once only feeling, glamour, lucky chance.

Something happened to me when I was meditating. I felt like I was slipping to another place and I liked it until a face appeared basically right on top of my own face, staring straight at me, and it scared the shit out of me and I opened my eyes and got ripped straight back into the real world. Has anything like that happened to you while you were meditating? I knew that the face was thinking "what the fuck are you doing here." And it was more animalistic than human but it certainly had the intelligence of a human.

This is the kind of teaching that I've heard many times, but everyone I ever heard teach it- while they knew the concepts and words, had clearly never achieved it.
With David Lynch I can fully believe he's transcended, that he's felt and touched it for himself. It makes it all hit very different.
To explain what cant be explained but only expiereienced directly, (like in the example of the donout) is an art in itself. Imagine a world where this is taught in school…

I love David Lynch! His movies are confounding and fantastic! I’m a meditator and have been for about 10 years. What he’s saying is absolutely true. Meditation can change your life. It has changed mine from alcohol and drug addiction to freedom from those things and more.
People keep saying its placebo. But i dont think that placebo can help u forget those hard drugs . Maybe it still is idk but i dont want it to be . I really want to believe that it's something special
@@nikakevkhishvili4785 It IS something special. I don’t personally subscribe to transcendental meditation but I go more toward the nonduality path. They share a lot of things in common. Not only has it helped me to stay away from alcohol and drugs, but it helped me get through losing my 28 yr old son in a violent and unexpected way a year ago. I’ve also lost 2 other family members to whom I was close in the past couple of months. I stopped suffering when I had my realization of who and what we really are. This happened to me in January. My life will never be the same. Life is a breeze. 😊

We live in a torus field.
Half my life ago I was so happy. I practiced TM ritually. I loved life. Then, life hit me. Car wreck left me disabled, I saw abuse of animals and of each other, my income went from $200k to zip, lost my job and home, became homeless with 3 dogs one of whom died of cancer while living in my van. Sure wish I could find that bliss again. I've tried yoga, TM, all kinds of therapy, all kinds of treatments, all kinds of alternate healing, yet I can't find the way back to happiness. I'm in my 60's and life has become really sad. I think security and money in the bank helps a lot. I didn't used to think this way, but I wonder now, was I really happy before, or did I just have what I needed to live comfortably?
Wow, thank you for sharing. I am skeptical of Lynch's teachings here especially because the beginning part about quantum physics is just wrong, doesn't make sense. And yea, you know, when was the last time you saw a guru or spiritual teacher that didn't have a comfortable living? Man does not live one bread alone, but man does not live on spirit alone either.
You practiced meditation, but did you understand it's source?
Sure, we need food as human beings, but where do we go when none is left?
Anyhow, I surely wish you good health and happiness wherever your path leads you. Check in with Peter Levine and a community maybe? The community is the ultimate form of security for most human beings.
Understand your thoughts, thanks for sharing. Maslow reckoned we all need some things to make the best of our lives; security and shelter are big parts. We also don't tend to be ready for changes, and as life progresses our relationships with others change and like you've illustrated, times can get tough, sometimes really tough. It might be that you've got a book to write? It may even be a counterpoint to the 'things get better if you do xyz' happiness culture. It may be if you retrace your story, the things that you view as happy then, may have a different tone. Sell your story, maybe make a few pennies and and see what others think..
whatever happens, I know that hope and despair are next door neighbours and they borrow bread and milk from each other. They never really live alone.
What does it matter your here now

Hi! Don't understand the same thing . He says he got one mantra to transcend and he says just meditation let us in the surface. What is the mantra ?
@@deborah6179 A mantra is a phrase or word that is repeated in the mind during TM.
I don’t care about meditation after a whole lifetime of trying to get into it, but hearing David talk about anything he’s into is meditative. So this is a win-win.
I listen to this regularly just because it's so nice to hear David talking.
This strikes me as quite simply a generous act of kindness and love to anyone who is listening to him. What an incredible person and artist.
On the contrary. Please do your research on TM 😉.
@Tery genuine questions- what part of my impression was the contrary part that struck you? generosity, other... him? The artist part? Sorry, just couldn't parse what you mean.
Yeah that’s basically what it is but in my experience it’s a little more accurate to say it’s the difference between knowing and understanding. We know we should be kind to one another but for some people they might ask why? This would be the understanding part and it’s because you are one with the world around you. You, your friend and enemies are all you. You wouldn’t want to hurt yourself right? So why hurt a tree, why hurt your enemy both of which are you on a fundamental level.
You’re limitless! Don’t be bound by your mind! Love yourself and keep moving forward! ❤

true but i dont need tm for that ..i defintly. got that. extreem selfhate..and..looking back i lost all interst. in..what i used to love..mind u..just getting 100% sober .and doing something new. be it tm or meditating for free or wing chun kung fu..or yoga..does that too..tm might be the easiest way. so i do recommemd it. however i think the 1000 us. keeps people from getting into it. so i definitly think..its a ripp off..but for us. whats easier? a 1000 us? and easy..or 10 days vipassana. 14 hours a day of pure hell
.or a few years of free yoga? hell if u can afford it. do it .its really easy and safe..unlike tantra yoga kung fu..vipa..ect ect. all are ways to your true selves. and after 30 years in india and tibet and endless. trying..i.must admit. tm. is. sooo easy with great results .hey u can go and. do yoga 3 hours a day for years for free..and maybe..you reach the same goal. tm is just the easy way. believe me..a 1000 us is like a bargain compared to the veey dangerous extreem tantra..or the years of hitting briks for kung fu.. tm is thruly...a rich mans way to easy meditation and ure self..grab it..or. go and study shaolin ..with exteem.pain. the goal is the same..just a differnt way

I saw the sky… it had a few clouds in the distance I mentioned a good rain for the garden is coming… being a light sprinkle… I told Barry and the dogs it is time to go inside… we all went in and I realized I wanted to hug the dogs in this place I said to them “I am thinking of you always”and “we will be together again soon and I will try and return again.”
Then I opened my eyes.
I started to lay back down and do it again… the place was blissful. Max and Biscuit… my pet friends… missed but I know I will do this again many times.

Im 7 minutes in and he's explaining this like a normal person. Anyone else I've ever heard trying to explain meditation uses language that's out of the grasp for most people, and likely because they don't have the accurate language to describe the experience themselves.
Thank you David!
This is the most beautiful and accurate explanation of my own experiences with meditation over the last two years. When you achieve this state, the inner light and truth is laid out before you. The feeling of fullness and bliss is indescribable, and all doubt in higher conciousness is simply removed. It is profound and life changing and can only be understood by experiencing it. No god bothering, organised mainstream religion that is merely an extension of darkness control will ever deliver this whole truth, and it can not be fully articulated verbally by those who have experienced it.. Individual spirituality through meditation is key! Peaceful travels.

There is plenty of meditation/frequency music here in YT. Find something that resonates with you (not all of it will), you can generally feel in a few minutes if the track is for you.
Listen with headphones, relax and empty your mind. Wait for the music to bring in shapeshifting colours and visions, and just go with the flow. The rest will come in time. Easier said than done, I know, but perseverance is key!

Human Free Will does that through manipulating the messages of the Churches, saying: "We are right, and they are wrong." God (the Creator) never said anything about "Right or Wrong" - He gave us the rules and said: "You have Free Will to choose how to create your life." All Faith, in the end, points back to God, or Source, or the Creator, or the Higher Powers.
@@aeternuseldritch9545 there is only Natural Law, and acting under Free Will. You have the free will to be morally good, or immoral and evil.
It is foolish to say, "The Higher Powers don't try to divide us". 🤣🤣 They DEFINITELY do, just look around. I'm honestly blown away that you could state that they don't try to divide, when division IS their agenda. Divide and Conquer.
They want us to be immoral and arguing amongst ourselves.
@@aeternuseldritch9545 Not to mention that any religion only gives you the exoteric information, most people don't know the scale of its depth. Research the esoteric and the occult, it is the information that is concealed and used over us, and most of the population understanding it is the only way out of our mental and spiritual slave-state. That is the truth, end of story.
@@aeternuseldritch9545 GOD gave us Natural Law and Free Will. NOT the Church. NOT the Bible.
Talk about Esoteric Christianity at your church and see what happens. People will turn away, unable to think critically, and will fear it and believe it evil. Because they are foolish, divided, and swindled by the beast.
You are as well if you truly think they don't try to divide us.
That's ALL they do. Man, your comment really upset me for some reason. I wish we all didn't live on damned TH-cam.
Mannnnnnnnnn this was needed I appreciate you David Lynch definitely a legend in my book never will I forget you man been looking for a video like this like and the energy I gain from it is what I was trying to seek for the longest!!!
This is a total and complete treasure.... thank you so much for sharing your vision of this state of being that all of us can reach if we do the work :)
This is the most beautiful explanation to becoming a child of light
I did not come here by chance. This is needed.
If Lynch is only remembered for one thing… this right here.
Nope
I’ve only fallen into a transcendental state through lsd a few times. What’s so strange and difficult about that is your Atma or true self is very apparent, but the truth is you’re not really earning it through acid. The only way to truly achieve it is to earn it through self reflection and meditation. The reason everyone says the feel this on acid though is because it shows you what’s actually possible within yourself, but it’s your job to reach out and grab it. After all it’s all atoms
How do you do it in a way that is not thru acid?
I’m glad I’m not the only one experiencing what this wonderful person just described
Loved this! what they dont want you to know - becuz its so powerfull beyond measure 🤩 been a drug addict for years becuz bad cirkumstances in childhood with toxic parents, low selfesteem. Im 3 months clean now, and I dont ever go back. I have forgiven my parents and myself and every lost soul i have encountered along my journey. Will live the rest of my life in peace and harmony and meditate everyday. I use sleephypnosis during nights to reprogram my mind so i can live to full potential 😋
Such a clear comprehensible description of matter, mind, consciousness and how to live to life. As a practising Nichiren Buddhist there are so many similarities and it's so encouraging to see the TM group doing such great work for human happiness. I hope your classes spread across national curriculums throughout the world. ありがとうございました❣

We do not need drugs to reach this level of awareness... it’s in all of us we just need to seek it
The word of God plainly teaches that man is spiritually dead in sins and trespasses against God.
This is why the Lord Jesus Christ said “you must be born again”. This is being born from above, meaning of God, by His Spirit.
You must be reconciled to God. The bad news is you cannot do this by yourself. And far worse, you stand under the judgement and condemnation of God because of your sin against Him.
The good news is the coming of the Son of God in the Person of Jesus. He came as the promised Saviour (Messiah) of the world, the Christ. He took on our human nature to live and die in our place. In His crucifixion, Jesus took upon Himself the judgement we deserve for our sins, paying the price in our place. When He rose again from the dead three days later this was affirmed, just as He and the prophets before Him had said.
Now He reigns as Lord and King in heaven and brings salvation to all who call upon His Name. God commands all people everywhere to repent, turning to Him, and to believe in this Saviour. The promise is the forgiveness of sins and eternal life.
This is true peace and true joy, in the knowledge of God Himself.

David Lynch gave a beautiful teaching in this video
I can listen to THIS all day .
Truly beautiful and inspiring ❤ thank you, David Lynch
I love he lives like he's constantly on mild LSD and knowing it, loving it and doesn't give a shit about anything else
LSD is truly a gift
You should be careful with LSD. Psilocybin mushrooms are the only thing which can be picked and eaten without preparation to have this kind of experience. They work, and science shows they have a very low potential for harm. Not to mention shrooms have been tried and tested by our ancestors for as long as you can imagine.
🤣 Yeah, that's it! 🤣
@@user-or4ut2qi3q there's also Amanita Muscaria
@@user-or4ut2qi3q LSD and psilocybin are both nontoxic. Be aware of set & setting, safer use, comfortable surroundings etc. They both have therapeutic potential and are both well studied
I was an atheist not too long ago. I was guided by teacher of the forest. Somehow they induced an altered state of consciousness. I now believe they induced my pineal gland to release DMT. It was wonderful and I journeyed. I am now highly spiritual and meditate almost every day. We are all connected.
I’m pleased to hear this, namaste my friend
They say that's demonic..
@@tp1825 they say a lot stuff that is B.S. to control the masses.
Pretty much figured that.
That shouldnt stop you from being an atheist.
Thank God for David Lynch.
...and the problem is, even though the Answer is within, we're always told that the answer is in a deity, a son of God, an immaculate virgin mother, a statue, a book, a clan of scholars, a pantheon of titans, an external thing.
Thanks David. I know you are right.
Unbelievable wisdom in this documentary! Thanks so much for sharing 🙏
Love, Health and Wealth for everyone ❤️
loved it -I've seen it quite a few times -mesnerizing with inspiring thought...thank you David
Plain cake donuts (without any topping or frosting or filling) are the tastiest. 👍🏼
i agree !
Ive been experiencing this.. and this is what i call "Intimacy With God" .. Becoming one spirit with God.. 1cor 6:17 .. the peace, Joy is unexplainable, you just cant explain it to people, its addicting.. Becoming one with God is the Unified field..
David's words have spoken deeply to me. I felt something awaken and I want to find out more about transcendental meditation. god bless you all.
If you wish to take the direct path, and are ready for complete surrender, read When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chödrön.
You should go for it. I started the TM course one week ago because of Lynch and it blew my mind how quickly and powerfully I noticed a difference. And I've tried literally hundreds of different meditations, healing modalities, natural remedies etc. It's the real deal
Oh yea.
@@hanf9129 any recommendation?
@@anewagoraI'm going to read that. Thank you
Wonderful, enlighthening way of explaining consciousness. Superb!!
May every human being get to experience this.
Thankyou.
Consciousness or Enlightenment can't be bought, consciousness or awarenes is not from the mind. So it was not an explaination of consciousness as it doesn't have attributes. It's from the "heart" and no money can manufacture this, you have it already (tat tvam ási). If someone tries to sell this manufactured consciousness to you know it to be a cult and/or scam.

Meditation has proven effects on the brain, and is highly recommended. The 'Transcendental' aspect of meditation
really is an attempt to describe the sensations of light and space in our head when doing meditation.
This is very calming and really alters your overall experience. The particular meditation David Lynch does
is repetition of a word or 'mantra', but the first and most basic meditation is to focus on your breathing.
That is called 'Prana' , the breath and life-force. No need for anything external to be introduced.
I heard that meditation on your breath(prana) is a better meditation than transcendental, which focuses on a mantra connected to your external reality. What do you think?
The "transcendental" aspect of TM refers to the experience of pure consciousness, which is beyond thought and feeling. It transcends relativity. It is Beyond. It is the Absolute, the Unbounded, the Source, course and Goal of all evolution and progress in life. It goes far beyond any vague feelings of "spaciousness". Meditation techniques that focus on breathing are vainly attempting to mimick the physiological effects of transcending during TM. These techniques confuse the Path with the Goal. It is noticed that breathing naturally comes to a standstill during TM and they try to copy that by focusing on the breathing. Needless to say, for most people, this is counterproductive!
I have alot of good effect of meditation but it has also made my anxity worse or made me feel like " fear is a magnet" it makes me to senseble where i react to every sound every this and that, it has good effects but it made some of my worrying ( at night) when you hear a random sound etc made me more anxious for " bringing up all the anxity" and me not being able to deal with it, and thats not always a good thing, ... i would say, do it in moderation spesially if you are very sensetive as a person ( no offence to meditation, its better to meditate then to do nothing of course, i still meditate 10min a day.)
@@bryanbenson6551 transcendental meditation doesn't focus. Maharishi called it "The Technique of No Technique". Focusing holds the mind on the relative level. The point is to transcend that. You won't do that by focusing on anything... breath, mantra, heartbeat ...
A lot of fluffy lovely words and notions in this video but mostly without much meaning. Meditation does not need silly " magical words" given by "mystical gurus". Trying to achieve states of "bliss consciousness" through repeating mantras is a diversion from the path of coming to see the mind as it really is. Bliss and joy etc are just tempting but ultimately illusory mental/emotional conditions, to be recognised and then let go off. That is my understanding. Plus, I don't trust an organisation that guards its "magic words" and only grants people access at a price. I'm glad that modern psychology is sorting out the ancient techniques that are valid and verifiable from those that are mixed up in mystical mumbjumbo like TM. Still, if it works form you and helps you live a peaceful and compassionate life, then that is great!
So well explained . I understand it much better now. I've been listening to the audio book I AM THAT. The more I listen the clearer it becomes. Thanks for the video. The world would change for better if more people understood that.
David has such a great way of explaining things, to himself.
yea and he is better explaining the unexplainable then making movies who are much worse unwatchable just as nick cave turned into a wanky jezusfreak. making sound of music bwa. ghostteen crap. after getting into tm..oh and his family seems to rather die then to listen too his endless yapping. oooooom

The drone at 432Hz was a nice touch.
It is exactly what Kabbalah teaches 101.
Been reading about letting go and meditation for the past year. It's really good to see a filmmaker talk about this topic.
Yes, I really enjoyed this documentary, Mister David Lynch, thank you very much.
How nice to now have this wonderful general view in black-on-white on one piece of paper.
Apart from this: TM is not the only way of meditating in my opinion.
And: Thanks to Rodrigo Notari for uploading.
I did the whole mindfulness thing fairly seriously for around 4 weeks and got fairly “good” at it. I know that’s not the point but anyway, one day I started seeing flickering and flashing lights popping off in my vision. My eyes were open, literally and it weirded me out a little bit. I did it for pain management and if you need it for that purpose do the body scan meditation. It’s hard to understand unless you’ve done it seriously and correctly.
The 'white light' is something you have to experience to believe.
It's a state of TM where you find yourself in an ocean of endless brilliant white light.
It stretches inward and outward forever. You feel as though you are traveling faster than light itself.
It's warm and beautiful beyond description.
The inner energy of your nervous system literally connects with the boundless outer universe and you're traveling!
Yet you return completely rested with a profound feeling of well being.
It's not sex or psychedelics or sleep. It's a natural state of being.
It's real!
Beautifully stated!
How long should one do tm to experience white light ?
I want to know more do reply
