Dr David Lynch and Donovan inspire students in Brazil In a place where millions of school-age children are illiterate, and nearly half the children live in households with monthly incomes under $275, young people have every reason to feel troubled about their future. Enter the Transcendental Meditation program. Earlier this week in Brazil, a group of 3500 meditating students assembled in their schools' antiquated, neglected gymnasium and transformed it into an arena of hope and celebration. They gathered to honor David Lynch and Donovan—and express their gratitude for the gift of meditation. The children were gleeful and bright—lit from within—and having the time of their lives. Over 40,000 children throughout Latin America have learned to meditate. The David Lynch Foundation has provided them with this cutting-edge educational technology to overcome stress and tap their inner resourcefulness, to help them build a better life. Dr. Lynch, a Trustee of Maharishi University of Management, entered the gym to thunderous applause. 'TM is a priceless diamond that each of you should cherish throughout your life,' he told them, adding that he had not missed a twice-daily meditation in 35 years—'and neither should any of you!' Following a 10-minute group meditation with all the students led by Dr. Lynch, Donovan and local singing star Claudia wowed the kids with song. As the pictures show, the students were overjoyed. Thanks to the David Lynch Foundation, the future of Brazil is looking bright. © Copyright 2008 Maharishi University Management, USA, Achievements e-zine
