Samadhi is both mystical and mysterious, an incredible fusion of movement, sound and colour. Belson notes the influence of his study and practice of Yoga and Tibetan Buddhism on the creation of Samadhi. The film is inspired by the principles of yogic meditation: the movement of consciousness towards samadhi (union of subject and object), the fusion of atma (breath and mind), a state which reveals the divine force of kundalini, a bright white light we discover at the end of Samadhi. The Tibetan Book of The Dead is the inspiration behind Belson’s use of colour in Samadhi, corresponding to descriptions of the elements of Earth, Fire, Air and Water in the book. —Sophie Pinchetti, The Third Eye

Good concept, poorly executed.

Fantastic!

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I'm feeling a little like no one will ever read this but i know how it feels to reach upon a film that sparks my interest only to find out no one knows anything about it! this is a compilation of Jordan Belson's work from 1964-87. basically it is a bunch of ambient eye candy before digital animation. this is more beautiful and much more pure than hitting the visualizer button on your windows media player. the music is composed by an Alaskan man named john Luther Adams. there isn't much else to say but if you've taken the care to actually come across this one, you'll like it. There isn't much more to say about this one. Good, smooth imagery, Soothing music. All in all a good, worthwhile experience. Not for the closed minded.
