Tantra and anti-capitalism

 

An Ananda Marga supporter lectures about Tantra and capitalism. Or rather anti-capitalism, in this case.

Ananda Marga is a controversial "New Religious Movement" from India, often accused of being a terroristic sect or cult. It has a "leftist" political perspective, and an ideology called PROUT, which sounds like a version of cooperative libertarian socialism (I haven´t studied it in-depth, though). Ananda Marga criticizes both capitalism and Soviet-style socialism.

I´m not a big fan of this particular group, but having nothing else to do at 2AM in the morning, Swedish local time, I might as well link to this clip, as part of my never-ending series of blog posts about Tantrism (both right hand path, left hand path and now left *wing* path).

Namaskar!
