Reddit reviews Passionate Journeys: Why Successful Women Joined a Cult

So Mimi has responded back:

"Hi Todd,

Happy to answer your questions. My book is called Passionate Journeys: Why Successful Women Joined a Cult.

While there were individual devotees in Eugene between 1981 and 1984, there was no group presence. However, Sheela and KD Mayor of Rajneeshpuram) spoke in Eugene in an event sponsored by the ACLU in 1982. In the Willamette Valley, they had a much larger presence in Salem and of course Portland.

When the group dispersed, very few individuals settled in Eugene, although some passed through on their way to other destinations. Over the decades, there have been some Osho (Rajneesh’s new name) meditation sessions near the university.

Thanks for your questions and you are welcome to share my responses."
