Hare Krishna type of cult with political ambitions.

The Science of Identity Foundation is an off-shot from the Hare Krishna movement, initially known as the Hari Nama or Holy Name Society, founded and lead by Chris Butler.[1] Former members have said that: "Everything you do in the cult is pretty much watched, and you're insulated and isolated and you only associated with people inside the cult."[2] There are reports that: behind closed doors, the group venerates Butler as if he were a divinity and that members have been warned that Butler has magic powers and can read their thoughts, and are instructed to distance themselves from the outside world.[3][4]

Members

Tulsi Gabbards parents have been members of the cult and she grew up in it. The circumstances of her upbringing have been investigated in detail by Mike Prysner.[5]
