Bhagwan Richard Presents: Osho (Complete Series) - Sex Cults, New Age Theology, Bioterrorism, Nurse Mengele, Dynamic Meditation, Tax Evasion, and Ten Weird Reasons You NEVER Leave a Cult Unsupervised

Osho, AKA Bhagwan, AKA Raj Rajneesh, AKA....we get it - mystic, con artist, cult leader, philosopher, terrorist, dupe? Your guess is as good as mine. Join Bhagwan Richard and myself as we explore the world of a man with 93 Rolls Royces and enough devoted worshipers to keep his toes permanently sucked and prescriptions filled.
