| 520 | |a Students of MISA, the Movement for Spiritual Integration into the Absolute, produced in the early 2000s several adult movies, some of them featuring female urination, whichoffered ammunition to critics calling for police action against what they considered a “pornographic cult.” Carmen Enache, under the pseudonym Bella Maestrina, directed most of these movies. After the 2004 police raid against MISA in Romania, the production of these movies ceased, although Enache still organized erotic theatrical shows and in the following decade started directing a new kind of movies under the pseudonym Aghora Vidya. The movies and shows do not appear to have generated significant income, nor did MISA use them as a recruitment tool. Based on interviews with Enache and others involved in the movies, the article concludes that presenting a Tantric approach to sexuality to consumers of pornography was not a purely utilitarian enterprise, and those MISA students who participated in it also had specifically esoteric motivations. | ||
