Eckankar: The Local Cult You’ve Never Heard Of

Eckenkar is a global organization that has operated since the 60s. However, relatively little is known about the cult and its practices. It has multiple locations in LA, including a branch in Culver City and Marina Del Rey, both of which are perpetually closed and never appear to have any customers. Reporters Jo and Hannah set out to shed some light on the mystery of what Eckankar is by speaking to current members of the cult, a local former school teacher, and a man in Nigeria.
