Description In my presentation, I focus on transformation of Indian spiritual traditions of Czech occultists and yogins under the influence of communist dictatorship. Important factor for spreading and maintaining occult and yoga teachings in the period before Communism in the Czech lands were well accessible occult and religious literature and public lectures. However, the begining of communist dictatorship interrupted these activities and made them less accessible. How is it possible that the tradition of Indian spiritual teachings survived this period? In what ways was this tradition transformed by the period of Communism?
