'I survived a Krishna cult' May 17, 2015, Bevan Hurley, Stuff.co.nz

---

A Kiwi says he was brainwashed from birth after he was born into a secretive religious sect.

Rama das Ranson, 35, was brought up in the Science of Identity faith, and says he was instructed by his parents Robin and Allan Ranson to worship its reclusive leader Chris Butler 'like a God'.

Ranson, who has spoken for the first time, said he rejected the group's teachings, which he labels as a cult.
