In the 1980s I was living back in my hometown in SE Washington. Got a
lot of news about Antelope and the commune. One local man whose kids I
grew up with was a produce broker and was enjoying a thriving business
selling produce to the commune. As a shortcut from the town to trips to
California I would take Biggs junction south all the way down to I-5 at
Weed. That took me past the road that went to Antelope. By 1989 I just
took the freeway all the way down to I-5 Portland which cut about an
hour or more off the trip.
I will be watching the final episode (6) tonight. It's been an
excellent series.
As far as I can tell Rajneesh didn't come from any tradition and just
made things up. Here is a really good discussion on what tantra is
supposed to be about on Pacifica radio.

This is pretty good so far. I've watched the first episode and
started in on the second. I have lived in Oregon since 1993 and it's
interesting watching and listening to the "survivors" of the situation
from the local perspective. Our local PBS station did a really good 2
part documentary on the compound several years ago, but this goes
above and beyond that.
I will probably watch another chapter tonight.
