Since all the Turq have experienced of "enlightenment" is a couple of weeks of witnessing decades ago in Italy there is no expertise in this field coming from this him. He is like the Americans say: "All hat, no cattle". This interview with DL is old news, seen it before. In stark contrast to hobby "Buddhists" like the Turq, DL experienced some aspects of the Buddha. The Turq and other hobbyist's just use the name to feel special. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote :
From an interview with David Lynch: David Lynch’s Heart Opened When… The director spoke of two times when he was shaken to his core. One was when he first saw Francis Bacon’s work at the Marlborough Gallery in 1966, and the other was at LACMA a couple of decades ago. He’d gone to see sandstone sculptures from the Far East and wandered by himself into a room with a Buddha from India. He spoke of his gaze falling on the face of the Buddha and seeing a “white light that shot out and filled [him] with bliss.” Long (one hour) interview with Lynch, for those who feel they could endure that much of him: http://www.salon.com/2014/05/09/the_brilliant_twisted_mind_behind_twin_peaks_david_lynch_reveals_where_his_ideas_originate/ http://www.salon.com/2014/05/09/the_brilliant_twisted_mind_behind_twin_peaks_david_lynch_reveals_where_his_ideas_originate/ Supposed highlights from the interview, distilled by someone who listened to it so we don't have to. :-) http://www.bkmag.com/2014/04/30/david-lynch-loves-kanye-west-and-other-things-i-learned-at-bam-last-night/ http://www.bkmag.com/2014/04/30/david-lynch-loves-kanye-west-and-other-things-i-learned-at-bam-last-night/
