David Lynch’s children are planning to honor their father in a creative way. “David Lynch, our beloved dad, was a guiding light of creativity, love, and peace. 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,” his children, Jennifer, Austin, Riley, and Lula, shared on the late director’s X account on Saturday. “Let us come together, wherever we are, to honor his legacy by spreading peace and love across the world. Please take this time to meditate, reflect, and send positivity into the universe,” they added. Prior to his death on Wednesday, the surrealist director was open about his love of transcendental meditation. “I remember it as if it was yesterday, and it was so beautiful. I’ve been meditating twice a day for over 41 years and never missed a mediation,” Lynch said during a 2016 interview on Sunday Morning.
