Welcome to Litsy!

I liked some of what was in here, but mostly it seemed super random. It was a lot of different personal stories relating to his film making and creativity with a little meditation thrown in. It just wasn't what I thought it would be.

This is a short book (2 hours on audio narrated by Lynch) on his experiences with Meditation and by extension, the reason for his foundation for funding meditation in education. They are very short snippets- definitions really- of key concepts and his take on them and how they have worked in his creative life. Much from the Upanishads. I enjoyed it as a short work for my 2019 creativity readings project. Available on Libby at my library.

Just listened to this as an audiobook - read by David Lynch! I keep the paper version by my bed, but it was amazing to listen to him read it. Wonderful meditations on creativity and life. - @malloryomeara

After getting through a bunch of excellent books over the Xmas/NY period I've been compelled to return to Litsy.

This was a Xmas present, and I was so very happy. I'm now extremely curious to practice transcendental meditation, which the book promotes heavily. However outside of this there is great insight into his process, history and sources of inspiration and I think any creator would come away from reading this with a positive adjustment.

I get a bit obsessive about my collections.

This is a great book to flip through when you're having a creative block though!
