  • Summary

  • In this episode of the Compendium, we uncover how the Sex Cult led by Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, also known as the Osho movement, nearly took over Antelope, Oregon. We explore the rise of Rajneeshpuram, the Rajneeshee cult's transformation, and Ma Anand Sheela's pivotal role in the Rajneeshee plot that led to the biggest bioterror attack in U.S. history.
