Templo Vegetal Sakroakuarius

The Templo Vegetal Sakroakuarius (Sakroakuarius Vegetable Temple) is a Colombian religious commune, active in the Santander Department, professing an eclectic form of Judeo-Taoism (sometimes referring to themselves as "True Jewish Tao People") with an active flying saucer lean. The Sakroakuarian belief system holds their leader, Jah Kelium Zeus Induzeus, to be a Levite priest and Messiah, vessel of the Living God (a.k.a. Jesus Christ, Lao-Tse, etc.), and that his son, Samael Johav Bathor Weor, is the re-incarnation of Samael Aun Weor (1917-1977).

The commune was the subject of Colombian police action during late 2004 in relation to accusations of the leadership's involvement in the assassination of former members, kidnapping, and involvement in the opium trade. The leadership is reported to have evaded capture, and there have been no direct follow-up actions against the group in the years since.
