By My Own Rules by Ma Anand Sheela

My story in my own words

A candid memoir recounting a journey from rebellious youth to the inner circle of a charismatic spiritual leader, charting the rise and collapse of a controversial Oregon commune amid power struggles, legal battles, and a notorious bioterror scandal. After prison and exile, the narrative follows an unexpected reinvention running care homes in Switzerland, offering a defiant, self-justifying reflection on loyalty, ambition, love, and the moral ambiguities of living by an uncompromising personal code.
