CATCHING THE BIG FISH. Meditation, Consciousness, and Creativity

One of the most inspiring books that I have read this year is: Catching the Big Fish by David Lynch. 

 

 

 

These illustrations were inspired by the book and the main idea behind it.

The main idea is that there is the small fish (everything in the surface of life)

 and then there is the big fish (those things that are somewhere deep in you

 and are not easy to see).

In order to find the big fish, we need to learn how to "fish" (meditate, think

 deeper, look at the world and at ourselves with a fresh vision, understand our

 connection with the universe...)

I couldn't agree more with David Lynch. This tiny book has brought so much

 light into my mind! Thank you Mr. Lynch for this treasure.

I don't want to talk too much about the book because I highly recommend 

you to read it. I am sure that you will appreciate it. It's one of those books

that will stay with you forever.

Have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend my friend!!

I will have to find a copy! I knew David Lynch was a big meditator, but I didn't know he wrote a book about it.

I downloaded it for my ipod. Didn't have any idea what it was about. As I listened, I stopped what I was doing, just to "hear" better. I was completely wowed. It is worth hearing again and again.

I bought this for my husband on CD a few months ago, he is a big david lynch fan. We're both very interested in TM but don't really know how to get started, do you have any tips?

p.s.Do you enjoy Alejandro Jodorowsky? :)

I love these illustrations! Skimming over them before reading the post, I totally got it. "You've got to go deep for the big ideas." I will keep that image in the front of my mind, when I get caught up in the little stuff. Thanks for the insight and inspiration!
