Sex, Lies, and Two Hindu Gurus

How I Was Lured into a Sex Cult — and Escaped

Sex, Lies, and Two Hindu Gurus Book - 10TH Anniversary Edition

"You speak. You die." That’s just one of the many threats Aya Ray received since telling the secrets of her ex-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 children over sixty years? Or one guru’s conviction on child molestation and his escape from justice? Or the 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 wrapped up in one book—a book that her ex-cult does not want you to read.

"Aya Ray’s story perfectly captures the twisted, insular, and secretive world in which we all lived."

- Kate Tonnessen, child victim

"Your narrative is very very gripping. Excellent stuff! I like your honesty and truthfulness."

— Sandeep S., USA

"With each new revelation in your book, I get more angry and more determined to do something to cripple this corrupt organization."

— Raj S., India

Sex God

Sex God

My first book — Sex, Lies, and Two Hindu Gurus — was the unbelievable but true story of my personal experience of abuse in a Hindu cult, called Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat. It was founded by a man named Ram Tripathi (aka, Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat).

I was not alone in my horrible experiences in that cult. There are thousands of women and girls with similar and far worse stories, including extreme emotional and sex abuse.

It is my fervent hope that Sex God will help expose the dark side of the search for enlightenment — and allow victims of this organization to know they are not alone and people care about them.
