The Disturbing World of Unknown Cults..

Sorry about the last messy video thanks to Rocket money for sponsoring today's video more on them later hello everyone my name is TB and today we're going to be talking about the disturbing world of unknown CTS in this video we're going to try our best to talk about Colts that aren't really talked about but it's kind of hard to find them because one that's just another Rabbit Hole of research and two even the unknown ones at some point got talked about either on a YouTube video or on a Netflix documentary so I tried my best on this list and also in case you guys think I did not upload last week I actually did or maybe a week and a half ago now that this video was whenever you're watching this it was just a messy release of my creepy pastas based on true stories video it got age restricted and then I re-uploaded it and then that one got taken down for violating Community guidelines and then YouTube brought it back so I currently have two copies of the same video on my channel and then YouTube removed the age restriction from the original video and it's it's just such a messy release so I do want to apologize for that like what type of YouTuber has a messy release for a video I guess yes I do sorry about that but yeah this video gets very dark as do all of my videos but just giving you guys a fair warning and I'd be lying if I told you I didn't just say that for the

did aliens create humans well most of us are probably Claude Vorilhon’s Raelism think a little bit before answering that but for members in the Rian Church the answer is an instant yes in fact this is one of their core beliefs also known asianism I hope I pronounced that right or else this is going to be episode 8,000 of tubis pronouncing something anyway this movement believes that Elohim a species from out there in outer space used their advanced technology to create Humanity some 25,000 years ago so if that's the case then where does the god that so many cultures believe in come from well this UFO movement believes that Elohim are creators have historically been mistaken for gods and just to clarify here rism is an atheistic movement which means they do not believe in deities or their existence at all actually most of this Colts belief is simply centered on the Elohim species and them coming back and some sexual Liberty their leader Claude voral Han a former journalist and racer who began the whole thing back in the 1970s in France believes that the Elohim created 40 human hybrids that have been prophets that tell the world what the true origin of human beings is and can you guess who the 40th prophet Prophet is none other than Claude himself others on the list include Jesus Elijah Muhammad and Buddha Claude who published these claims in a 1974 book titled Le quit La V also known as the book that tells the truth also maintains that since the Hiroshima bomb of 1945 humans entered the Age of Apocalypse which then trigger the need to use scientific and technological developments for peaceful purposes apparently only when this is accomplished will the Elohim return to share their own Tech with humanity and hence establish a Utopia this return as Cloud was told by the Elohim might happen in 2035 pretty fascinating so far but there's a lot more for instance they also believe in human cloning something that creates the hopes of immortality for them they made these baby cloning remarks back in 2001 where they claimed the ability to do so at a fee of $200,000 per baby once the media picked up on the story and critics began hitting back the the FDA quickly shut them down after and then rather oddly sexual experimentation as I've hinted seems to be a big part of their movement they encourage free love and tend to view sex as a natural vital and healthy aspect of life at first glance this may seem a little bit harmless it's just some weird cult having some orgies probably okay Until you realize that clot has been described as a sex maniac who abuses his power to have sex with the women that follow him it's also been said that what they call sensual meditation an example of which happened in 1974 involves members stripping naked and pleasuring themselves openly and during it the men persuade the women to have sex with them in order to become more fulfilled this has also been viewed as a breeding ground for sa of minors as there were accusations where two members violated an underage person with allegedly her mother allowing it all to happen which is just so disgusting I actually don't think I can overstate just how much sexual stuff goes on in this cult it's probably just easier to say that there seems to be almost no rules when it comes to sex at least more rules for the women less for men that's what I'm getting from this men even the married ones are told their women cannot be monogamous sexual release is seen as welcoming the Elohim open air sex is encouraged and the list goes on then of course Claude as a representative of the Elohim gets privileges of his own which includes the order of the angels and it's just a bunch of young women that have been chosen to welcome the Elohim look man as much as I could get into detail I am not going to you kind of scared me with the age restricts and stuff but basically it's just manipulation and abuse of young adults and mainly women but not to say there's not men it's both but yeah it's pretty disgusting and pretty [ __ ] weird if you do want to learn more about this specific topic there is a Netflix documentary it goes way deeper than what I just covered and it even follows up with some court cases so yeah shout out to that documentary let's head on to the next cult tekashi nakagawa is Happy Takashi Nakagawa’s Happy Science science Colts in general will have a lot of things going on but happy science is one of those that leave you fascinated by the amount of weirdness that cult leaders can dish out only in the name of belief we're talking about rivalry with other Cults fake UFOs channeling spirits of the people dead or alive reincarnation fake covid cures and there's honestly a lot more that goes on believe me this video could be 12 hours long but we're just going to take a look at the Messier parts so first the basics happy science was started by tekashi nakagawa a Japanese man who while pursuing quite a successful Wall Street trading career in the early 80s got the conviction that he needed to take on the respons responsibility of saving the world from ruin his version of events was that he was in contact with quote wise men from the past like Buddha and Jesus who told him he was chosen to spiritually redeem this wretched World armed with that conviction he went back to Japan abandoning his traiter career changed his name to ryuo Okawa and began self-publishing spiritual books with titles like the terrifying Revelations of Nostradamus and the great warnings of Allah these books became instant hits and followers began streaming in initially he just claimed to be able to channnel Spirits from the past like being a Reincarnation of Buddha but then his claims got larger and Crazier by the day to a point where he settled on being a supreme deity a rebirth elcare a god from Venus now of course with increased followers filled stadiums where he do stuff like hop out of a pretend UFO and lots of Publications according to the website that's 3,150 books published money began flowing in and so did The Prestige in fact the organization Grew From a relatively small group just Okawa and a staff of four in suginami Tokyo to a worldwide movement with ACC claimed 11 million followers and thousands of missionaries in over 165 countries the revenue estimates were as much as $45 million a year I mean they did well enough to put their headquarters right here in the US tried back in New York now away from the money while happy signs began with claims of being a study group on human happiness its later years have been nothing close to that for instance during the covid-19 pandemic they were selling coronavirus themed CDs and DVDs of lectures by Mr Okawa claiming that his voice alone held immune boosting power and as if to double down in Japan they were selling virus related blessings for anywhere from $100 to more than $400 also sometime in 2020 Okawa decided to make a film an in-house production written by sayaka Okawa his daughter and focusing on none other than Okawa himself titled Immortal hero it was a work of fiction based on true events of okawa's Journey to being a spiritual leader reviews though said it was laughably bad and quick plot summary the character who plays him in the film gets a fatal heart condition that leaves him hospitalized but then refuses treatment against the advice of doctors and reverses the condition through quote the power of his mind yes it's a weird plot but it's seemingly normal for the stuff he was already writing about but what is a little bit creepy is that he actually died due to Cardiac Arrest that was in March of last year in a hospital in Tokyo and he was 66 his death as probably would any other key figures brought up stories from his past some of which as I mentioned in the beginning are very fascinating he for instance denounced his first family around 2011 calling them demonic this was after his wife left the group and threw shade at him revealing his true followership was probably just 30,000 and not in the claimed Millions 30,000 huh bro has the same amount of followers as I have monthly listeners on Spotify it was also after his son and critic Hiroshi Okawa who was supposed to be a successor at one point revealed that ok AWA quote relentlessly lied to his followers interesting also is that a few years earlier in 2008 he had also tried his hand at Japanese politics starting his own party happiness realization party but with very little success and equally as fascinating was his rivalry with shoko asahara the leader of the AUM shrio cult the Rivalry in which asahara mocked okawa's superficial knowledge of Buddhism culminated in an assassination attempt on Okawa in 1995 by shrio yeah we're actually going to talk about that later in this video so uh really cool that this this had a like a connection and although it's not very clear on who succeeded Okawa like if there was like a junior Okawa or something someone that took over that's not really known but happy science is very much active and very heavy on selling books I mean they got 3,150 books I wouldn't doubt they're making some decent money if there's even one loyal follower that's like oh I got to I got to collect all of them like a Diary of a Wimpy Kid collection you know they're probably making decent money but yeah that's really it for happy science let's move on to the next one Bradley Cadenhead 764 now we've covered a lot of dark topics especially when it comes to the internet on this channel and this is Bradley Cadenhead’s 764 one of them 764 a confirmed satanic cult is one such wave suspected to consist of hundreds of members boys to even men in their mid-40s 764 is basically an online extortion ring deliberately going after miners forcing them to record or live stream very inappropriate things and dealing those clips on the dark web based on what the authorities have said and some court records of cases against some of the members it's confirmed that the the group mainly targets people of color people part of the LGBT and people dealing with mental illnesses like depression now before we get into where they came from and why they do it first we should take a look into how and here the consensus is that they use well-known and seemingly harmless social platforms to lure these miners for instance they set bait in highly popular gaming chats like Roblox and Minecraft or on social media platforms like Discord twitch and interestingly enough apparently playlist on Soundcloud they use threats blackmail and manipulation to get clips of of these miners doing very inappropriate acts which they then share with their peers on telegram which happens to also be their base of operation notably these groups have as many as 5,000 active members at a time and sadly it doesn't stop there because once Clips are shared on telegram other members pick them up and continue to terrorize these innocent kids for more control and also as I mentioned trade them on the dark web they do all this apparently with the end goal being to gain notoriety and rise in status within their group that sort of answers the why question to which then leaves us with who who are these guys and where did they come from well they are apparently an offshoot of order of nine Angels AK 9A one of the violist perpetrators of terrorist ideology around Guided by their affinity for violence and known for their worship of hit Satanism and pieces of the Wiccan religion wiccans are known for their witchcraft practices spells rituals and magical Traditions surprisingly part of this information that 764 was affiliated with 09a came to light after one of the members 23-year-old Angel Alida was arrested for gun possession in Queens New York the FBI was tipped regarding almeida's social media where he had been sharing images of violence against animals and kids in the raid on his apartment they found a 9mm handgun ammo and books about 09a however an item that stood out about the raid was a quote blood Covenant something common with 09a members in this case it was a Bloods smear drawing a hooded figure with glowing red eyes at the bottom the drawing was signed a covenant signed in blood May the devil walk with you always say a manabus a common 09 a oath the last phrase just so you know means by Satan's hand it's Latin now I should emphasize that 764 activities have been extremely devastating affecting thousands of people including hundreds of minors to the point where the FBI issued a public service announcement against them that announcement which identifies some threats issued to victims by 764 as including swatting and doxing was issued on September 12th 2023 and happens to be the first time that 764 has ever been formally mentioned by any US law enforcement agency and again just to emphasize this scale of their operation in 2023 alone Discord apparently blocked 130 groups and 34,000 accounts associated with them now that FBI PSA was accompanied by several arrests of members including Angel Almeida Bradley Caden hand Chandler pong colana limkin and a minor in Romania and rather shockingly the origins of 764 also got traced to one of these members 16-year-old Bradley Cadenhead from Stephenville Dallas Texas 764 is actually the zip code for Stephenville what's unnerving about all this though is that as of the publication of an extensive investigative report on the group in 2024 it was noted that they have grown in Num since 2021 and that social network moderators are struggling to keep them at Bay kotama okada's mahikari if you search mahikari on Kōtama Okada’s Mahikari Google you are likely to end up on the sukio mahikari website where the about section talks of light energy that purifies the spiritual part of people and also about organic gardening as a spiritual practice generally reading through the website this self-described nonprofit spiritual and community service organization looks and feels very appealing and forward thinking that's especially on matters of environmental conversation I mean they did get a sukio mahikari day which would be September 27th in Honolulu for a 10-year streak of beach and park cleanup they also got accolades from an LA mayor James Han in 2004 for helping create a peaceful and harmonious Society however underneath all of this there are layers of deception shaming and a host of other dangerous practices that are Hallmarks of cultic organizations and just so you know this is not my assessment several ex-members have described their time being there as being an Ault one member let's call her Lopez for example talked of how she joined the cult from a simple interaction with a work colleague we can call him Fred where Fred healed her headache through spiritual energy she soon got introduced to this energy True Divine Light and a lot of other religious practices including the kenu a spiritual initiation ceremony where one is finally allowed to carry and reciprocate the light signified by wearing the omitama a holy pendant although ascending through ranks and making inroads in this newfound organization she later realized that behind the curtains the teachings were manipulative and the whole experience was isolating one example was being taught that the pendant Omi Tama was more precious than one's own life the fact that this was taught to teens was even more problematic kotama okada the leader who described himself as the second Messiah also had part of his teachings affecting followers in devastating ways Lopez says she saw her followers abandoning medicine delaying hospital visits and suffering severe symptoms that even led to death the staff were also not spared as some of the trainees and Priests completely with no possessions and at the mercy of the mahikari centers were severely sleep deprived spending hours on end giving light to people apparently the more elevated you were in the organization the less sleep you needed what I find more startling about this group is that its origin story and progression are much like how happy science began first it's just so similar that kotama okata took on his Divine responsibility after an encounter with a white-haired elderly man in an astral World during a fever dream this encounter termed Kami gakari is what allowed him to go on and start quote sunlight children friends Association that's what the institution was called back then in 1959 it also allowed him to change his name to kotama AKA Jewel of light and cleanse the world of sin and again just like happy science he expanded to the Us and other parts of the world with follower counts in 1970 being quoted as anywhere between 300,000 to 400,000 members now while there are a number of smaller controversies around this cult one particular one that unsettled things a bit was the debunking of kot's claim of Japan being the birthplace of everything it was found that the scientific proof behind this was simply faked findings after a Japanese archaeologist planted fake Pottery this actually turns out to be one of the reasons Lopez the ex-member began questioning a lot of the other things within the organization and eventually leaving then even more bizarre is the link between mahikari and again the troubled AUM shinri Co responsible for a gas attack on the Tokyo subway it's alleged that Shamar yasuko a japanese-born Australian citizen who helped establish Suki mahikari in Australia also helped them purchase a 500,000 Acre Farm in that same location you know being Australia we're not only did they do some sort of scientific experiments but also caused a mysterious seismic activity I also have to add that the group had been in trouble before when a donated over $110,000 to start a Japanese cultural center at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem some called mahikari anti-semitic and fascist noting that its ideology Justified the H cost as a punishment inflicted on the Jews for failing to save King Solomon's Temple pretty unsettling stuff overall Julius Shack now's the work in Julius Schacknow’s The Work the early 1970s a charismatic Brooklyn Born man Julius Shak now began a movement that while having humble beginnings in New Jersey grew to become a thriving apocalyptic cult in Connecticut that can only be summed up as fascinating described as having a beard long hair and green eyes this man who also had a liking for white robes had somehow convinced his followers as many as 300 at the Colts PE that he was a reincarnated Jesus Christ he had also declared himself as an oracle of God with a mission to save Mankind from the evil on Earth according to him this meant that he could judge the Sinners and also heal people of addictions and illnesses but just like you've seen with the last cult there is a stomach turning catch he declared that salvation was only obtainable through having sex with him and he made a very clear loophole that allowed him to do that you see having declared himself as a Reincarnation of Christ according to him it meant he didn't know about Sin so then how do you get to know about sins Easy by taking part in them in fact that's why he also called himself the sinful Messiah and called The Sex God's work using this perspective sha now Justified a lot of abuse on the cult's members there were allegations that even Beyond his members he assaulted his own family he was a father of five and a husband to seven his stepdaughter accused of him sa stating that he prayed on her when she was only 11 and didn't stop until she turned 18 now pretty sickening Behavior but beyond the polygamy and sexual perversion shag now had even more stuff going on for instance he sold his followers a mission that he called the work basically a holy mission that needed to be Advanced before the apocalypse and they did so quite successfully they built and expanded real estate and construction businesses to a peak of around 100 million in yearly sales yes this somehow unknown cult ventured into real estate and was successful the operation of the businesses I guess because Shak now was busy with the other stuff had been under his chief Apostle Paul Sweetman and his wife Joan Sweetman aka the Holy Spirit Shack now only encouraged the members during their 6-hour Sunday Services he encouraged them to give their utmost best of the business while the swedens did the rest and the rest here includes JN North also known as Century 21 their five franchise real estate company headquarters which did Major Works around town weirdly by the end of the 80s these businesses collapsed something which then began a series of misfortunes including scores of members deserting the cult one key Misfortune though is the murder of the chief Apostle Paul Sweetman as I've already said Paul was a key figure in running the Colts businesses given he'd been sued in 2000 for fraudulently taking a $3.2 million loan from A hamon bank however when the Colts business collapsed and after Julius died in '96 there was a tussle as to who should take over and control things this tussle lasted for years and in 2004 it led to the death of Paul Joanne his wife and also julius's ex-wife had reported him missing on July 24th 2004 and nobody seemed to be able to tell where he'd gone it wasn't until 2014 that police found one of his legs buried at a golf course a lengthy investigation then ensued and led Rudy Hannon age 72 and soric minery age 42 former members of The Cult being charged they had killed Paul by stripping him naked and leaving him in a freezer believing he was hurting Joanne and that God would want them to do so they then cut him up and buried his body in different locations Hannon who also happened to be julius's real brother had apparently spent months convincing minery that the death needed to happen a surprising detail is that although they did it together Hannon years after the killing would blackmail into sending him money telling him he was either that or he would snitch on what they did oh and this whole murder plot as it was later discovered in court was orchestrated or rather set in motion by Joanne Sweetman over a battle over profits Joanne died in 2011 though before most of these things came to light Hannon died in 2022 aged 77 after Contracting covid-19 minory 47 now got 20 years in prison and as I already mentioned julus himself died years earlier in July 96 his cause of death was never revealed with the only available detail being that he died in his sleep on a Sunday at the home of one of his unofficial wives Daniel Perez's Angel's Landing in Daniel Perez’s Angel’s Landing the slim chance that you've heard of Angel's Landing you'd be likely to have heard of it in 2015 mainly because that's when its leader was prosecuted and it got featured in an episode of dine titled Angels and Demons suspected to have begun back in the early 2000s this cult was not only set up to exploit members but also to do so in a rather disgusting way but first who began it all well it was the work of Daniel Perez also known as Lou Castro a man born in 1959 in oran's past Texas somehow Perez created a traveling commune that journeyed across the country and convinced his followers that he was hundreds of years old an angel that could see the future and cure diseases due to his magical powers all that is a bit strange but there's more apparently to continue enjoying his Services there was a catch and this is where it gets a little hard to explain with the YouTube censorship but basically he would essay The People's children documents from the Kansas Bureau of Investigation sex offender industry showed that his victims were extremely young and it seemed Perez had created an atmosphere where these kids would just be too scared to speak out one victim explains that when she first met him he had been charismatic and talkative and somehow appeared wise which made joining the communal quote family easy as it was close and positive unknown to them though there was a lot going on beneath the facade for instance it later became obvious that without any official source of income for the commune to survive on Perez was committing insurance fraud to cater for his expenses and not just any type of fraud no he was sacrificing members of his own cult somehow he would convince members those with life insurance policies of course that he would make them come back from the dead after he killed them the first known member to suffer this fate was 27-year-old Patricia Hughes who it was claimed died while trying to save her toddler daughter from drowning in a pool it was later revealed though that she had actually known she was going to die even kissing her daughter goodbye and letting her know she'd return from the dead this had been witnessed by a member who was 12 at the time and had been convinced to lie by Perez anyway for Hugh's death Perez cashed out her $2 million life insurance more deaths followed soon after according to a testimony by a retired insurance salesman Bill Haden he had issued about five policies to the group members it seems Perez cashed out on all or at least most of these as in 2001 there was a member that died in a mysterious plane crash in South Dakota alongside her daughter and her boyfriend then in 2006 hu's husband died after a carjack failed leading the car he had been working on to Fallen him crushing him to death in 2008 another group member also died in a traffic accident now these deaths seem to have happened when Angel's Landing had already settled permanently on a 20 acre plot of land they bought somewhere north of Witchita Kansas but the fraud streak didn't last forever as soon enough Perez was on the run from authorities abandoning the property he got arrested in 2010 after trying to open a bank account under a fake new name Joe venas this arrest saw him get 28 charges including fraud murder and rap some of the charges were eventually dropped as he was convicted of 20 counts of saay of children aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and the murder of psha Hughes in his defense he tried to argue being unaware of what he was doing he said for instance that he suffered severe memory loss from getting beat up in Texas in 1997 and so he didn't know where the millions the colat received came from he also said he had a genital injury and that meant he couldn't have sex with uncooperative partners and that all his Partners were of legal age anyway where is Daniel Perez now well serving his sentence at the laning correctional facility in Kansas he got life in prison and is not eligible for parole until he is at least 120 years old Michael Bryan protzman Q andon Michael Brian Protzman’s QAnon religion has produced a good number of Colts but Colts are not exclusive to religion and you don't have to look far for proof because qanon whose leading figure was 6-year-old Michael protzman is a perfect example while the cult existed in the shadows of the internet for quite a while it wasn't until 2021 that it caught the attention of many including the media but before we get into what happened in 2021 first let's cover the basics of their beliefs so according to a CNN report that also inter pran's mother qanon believed that John F Kennedy Jr who passed on in 1999 in a plane crash in the Atlantic Ocean off Martha's vineard was still alive and even crazier that he was secretly working with the then president Donald Trump to save the US from an evil group of Satan worshipping PDF files now this might sound like something odd to believe in but it turns out there were a lot of people who bought into it that was revealed on November 2nd 2021 when members of this group turned up at the grassy null in Dallas Texas in hundreds this is the place place where President John F Kennedy had been assassinated in 1963 and the reason why they were there was that they hoped the Kennedy would return as one Q andon believer told the news they were there because quote word on the street was Junior AKA JFK junr would show up and introduce his parents there was also speculation that Junior would be Trump's vice president now of course Junior never showed up because he died but determined to see their course through apparently a good number of the Believers stayed behind camping there for months even still waiting for their SA to return and it seems the beliefs got objectively worse with time since they became a mixture of American lore around JFK's assassination biblical prophecies and not forgetting kon's own prophecies an example is the belief that implied that the kennedies and Trump were actually direct ascendants of Jesus Christ and that they had been part of age-old battles of good versus evil before we take a look at what became of qanon there's actually an interesting backstory to its forming protzman mother Colleen protzman who I mentioned in an interview with CNN for documentary revealed that pran's interaction with Colts dated as far back as 2008 when during the financial collapse he had begun researching about investing in silver apparently platforms that push Investments such as silver at least back then relied on doomsday stories to convince people faced with family issues and an uncertain financial future he began leaning into the conspiracy theories and soon enough he was fully in he even tried to convince his mother to cash in her 401k and buy silver further along he was sucked into other conspiracies and eventually he was just isolated then he bumped into telegram since Twitter and Facebook were heavy on cracking down against conspiracy theorists following the January 6th Capital attack there he effortlessly built an audience after finding people who validated what he believed so yeah that's how the whole thing started from there the audience grew and eventually became large enough to the point where they showed up to Dallas Texas as to what's going on with the group well protzman actually died in July of 2023 it was reported that he lost control of a dirt bike at Meadow Valley motocross in milville Minnesota and suffered multiple blunt force injuries that he succumbed to second even after his death the group remained committed to his prophecy that the kennedies would come back and lastly rather unbelievably his successor according to Vice is a 13-year-old known online as Tiny Teflon this girl was apparently a protege of protsman which he allegedly groomed her Mission well her Duty was to recruit kids to the cult shoko asahara's a shrio all right so I've already brought up AUM shrio in Shoko Asahara’s Aum Shinriyko this video and that word Shino is hard for to pronounce but I'm still going to try shrio that's how I say it that's how I'm going to continue to say for this story so let's start at the beginning the morning of March 20th 1995 in Tokyo Japan this was a day that Japan saw one of the deadliest domestic Terror attacks carried out by what was termed an obscure group that probably most people had never heard of before in five coordinated attacks across three commuter trains members of this group later unmasked as a shrio had left five bags filled with liquid nerve agent in the trains in what they believe was a way to spark the Apocalypse cpse that would then precede the end times they had been waiting for now you have to understand that Japan's Subway is one of the busiest in the world and so there were bound to be casualties all over the place that day passengers had gone about their mornings as usual but then while inside the trains they got met with stinging fumes that within seconds had led to choking vomiting blindness and even paralysis 13 people died from the attack while 5,800 others were injured this cult called om and short was quite predisposed to murder and violence seemingly stopping and nothing to achieve their goals for instance just months after the attack I've described they tried severely to release hydrogen cyanide in different stations but without success before that in 1989 they had killed susumi sakamato a lawyer who was working on a class action case against them they killed his wife and child too also sometime before that 1995 attack they had driven a truck full of saring gas around an apartment in Nagano Japan slowly releasing it and killing seven people in the process while injuring 500 others also not to forget as I had in the first case they had tried to assassinate another Colt leader tekashi nakagawa of happy science after asahara had already made fun of okawa's superficial knowledge of Buddhism they've also been linked to the mahikari cult having used Shamar yasuko would help maricari to buy a vast Farm in Western Australia or they ran some unsanctioned scientific experiments so overall it was a pretty chaotic cult now in terms of Origins the group is said to have begun back in the 1980s started by shoko asahara a self-professed Christ who also called himself the first enlightened one since Buddha their core beliefs were a mix of Hinduism Buddhism and apocalyptic Christianity and although preaching against materialism it turns out that material wealth and elitism were at the very center of their operation from the start for instance an ex-f follower once explained that members would pay for asahara's bath water and hair for $300 one could get about 1 oz of bath water yeah he was on his belfi stuff right there and even more bizarre there was an instance in 1988 where a member paid 8,100 $ for blood initiation where it's alleged that they drank asahara's blood this was seemingly a common thing as the blood was set to give members more Enlightenment I've also mentioned that they were elitists because as reported by BBC many of 's followers were students from Elite universities who the cult promis more meaningful lives away from the academically pressured lives that they were living based on this one can speculate that recruiting smart people might have something to do with their preference for chemical and biological agents as tools for attack that could also be backed up by the fact that in Western Australia they had part of their experiments had included attempts to make nuclear weapons by mining uranium and testing nerve agents on sheep among other similar stuff anyway for their crimes in 2006 asahara received a death sentence alongside some of the other key followers the case
