This podcast is now the subject of a legal complaint by Nicole Daedone, Rachel Cherwitz, OneTaste Incorporated, the Institute of OM LLC and OM IP Co.
This episode has been edited to remove reference to an email which was described as relating to a specific incident involving Sam and Cassidy. This has been removed because the email in fact concerned a different incident.
As One Taste grew, the tensions inside the company escalated.
We hear one especially disturbing story of abuse and coercive control, and hear how members were pressured into practising Orgasmic Meditation or having sex against their wishes.
We learn how the company began to take a turn towards the occult with a course called Magic School, experimenting with sex, spirituality and ritual.
And former One Taste members tell us how they reached breaking point within the organisation.
If you’ve been affected by any of the issues raised in this programme, help and advice are available at bbc.co.uk/actionline.
