Sarito Carroll is an author whose childhood was shaped by the chaotic, free-love world of the Osho Rajneesh movement, where she experienced both a deep sense of belonging and the wounds of neglect and sexual misconduct. Her debut memoir, In the Shadow of Enlightenment, unravels the complexities of growing up in a cult, the struggle to break free, and the long journey toward healing and self-acceptance. After decades of silence, she is reclaiming her voice and exposing the hidden realities of a system that promised love but demanded devotion at any cost. Through her writing, Sarito offers a powerful testament to resilience, truth, and the strength it takes to confront a formidable institution that seeks to keep stories like hers suppressed.
