In this hard-hitting
cinematic documentary, ex-followers reveal secrets of life under the
domination of India's infamous free sex guru, Bhagwan Shree
Rajneesh, self-proclaimed God of the Universe. |
|
|
|
We see how Rajneesh combines an eerie
charisma with scientific mind control techniques to make his disciples
psychically dependent on him. For the guru, this web of control means a
regal lifestyle (he had nearly a hundred Rolls-Royces at his disposal).
But for his followers, called sannyasins, living in the shadow of the
Master means giving up family ties, working eighteen hours a day, seven
days a week, for no pay and always being available to satisfy the sexual
whims of the guru's hierarchy. |
|
|
|
Wielding millions of dollars with an iron fist, Rajneesh
and his henchmen built a 100 square-mile separate state in
rural Oregon USA complete with a highly-armed sannyasin security force.
Like the tragic residents of Jonestown, the inhabitants of Rancho Rajneesh
were taught to fear law enforcement officers and other outsiders. While
tension and paranoia simmered, Rajneesh's teachings offered the cynical
consolation that, a bullet-ridden death can often accomplish what a life
could not. |
|
|
|
The world has heard the Rajneesh credo at
other times, other places, from other tyrants. Might is right, hisses the
bearded Master to his half a million fanatical devotees, that rule still
remains...the rule of the jungle. |
|
|
|
FEAR
IS THE MASTER is a stark and uncompromising warning, a shocking
reminder that if we do not learn from history we will be condemned to
repeat it. |
