Sex, Lies, and Two Hindu Gurus
How I Was Lured into a Sex Cult — and Escaped
"You speak. You die." That’s just one of the many threats Aya Ray received since telling the secrets about her ex-cult—which turned out to be a secretive sex cult. Also, her blog was cyber-attacked, and someone tried to get this book banned from Amazon.
What secrets are they trying to hide? Could it be the gurus’ secret sex factory, which lured in scores of women and girls over sixty years? Or one guru’s conviction on child molestation and his escape from justice? Or some devotees’ mysterious disappearances and deaths?
These secrets and more are revealed in Sex, Lies, and Two Hindu Gurus. Aya Ray went down the rabbit hole to dig up the facts and write this riveting book, which is equal parts memoir, true crime drama, and cautionary tale.

Sex God
Only a single wall divided the prayer hall—where devotees worshipped in reverence—from a chamber where acts of unspeakable depravity were perpetrated in my former cult. In the prayer hall, hundreds of devotees would sit for hours every day in chanting holy songs, meditating, and praying to their beloved guru.
In the very next room, the bedroom of my ex-guru, he would be seducing women and raping underage girls—every single day. His female conquests would be served up to him by a cadre of female worshippers, including his preachers, his devoted followers, and even his three daughters.
All female children were fair game. Very few who entered his ashrams escaped his sex factory.
Sex God exposes the true history of my ex-guru. It brings him and his shameful, criminal secret sex factory out of the shadows of darkness and into the light of truth.
