David Lynch’s children have invited fans of the film-maker to join in a “worldwide group meditation” to honour his legacy “by spreading peace and love across the world”. His children Jennifer, Austin, Riley and Lula Lynch have organised the event to take place for 10 minutes on Monday at 8pm (12pm PST), on what would have been his 79th birthday.
It was announced on Thursday that the acclaimed Oscar-winning director, known for the surreal TV series Twin Peaks and films such as The Elephant Man, Mulholland Drive and Blue Velvet, had died age 78. His children remembered their “beloved dad” as a “guiding light of creativity, love, and peace” as they announced the celebratory event in a joint statement shared on his X account.
“On Monday, January 20th — what would have been his 79th birthday — we invite you all to join us in a worldwide group meditation at 12:00pm NOON PST for 10 minutes”, the family statement added. “Let us come together, wherever we are, to honour his legacy by spreading peace and love across the world.
“Please take this time to meditate, reflect and send positivity into the universe. Thank you for being part of this celebration of his life.”. The US film-maker’s death comes five months after he revealed he had been diagnosed with emphysema, a chronic lung disease, after “many years of smoking”.
