Silent Tongues - A Spiritual Journey

Overview

Silent Tongues - A Spiritual Journey --- 1998

Liner notes: "Silent Tongues is a work of art exposing a world of beautiful images and symbols which reveal and express the journey towards an inner truth. It is a rich tapestry of sound and images which are bound together by texts from some of the oldest teachings in the world, the Vedas, the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita. Silent Tongues is a poetic and spiritual journey through India featuring her ancient and devotional practices, especially those of the Sadhus and Yogis. For thousands of years, Indian society has recognised and valued the need for the individual to satisfy the desire for union within the divine. The divine spirit is worshipped in many extraordinary forms and the path to the spiritual goal is many and varied, often intense and profound, sometimes dangerous and extreme. The film took 13 years to make."
