The Dark Call

Swami Goananda lives in an ashram in India and is known as a healer. Irena, who lives in a small town south of Sydney, Australia, is also developing healing powers. Wanting to improve her ability, she takes the advice of a psychic group and decides to visit the Swami.
Swami Goananda, however, has a dark side. He has sex with his disciples and in the process steals their energy so that he may prolong his own life. Irena, overwhelmed by his glamour, eventually allows herself to be seduced by him. Overwhelmed by what she has done, and instinctively knowing that she is pregnant, she flees the ashram and returns home to Australia.
Irena has a daughter, Holly. But not wanting her to be brought up close to the psychic group that follows the Swami, Irena decides to move north to Queensland. As her daughter is growing up, Irena meets a man with indigenous contacts who teaches her an earth-based magic. This increases her own powers but, at the same time, it makes her more sensitive to the psychic call of the Swami. She soon realises that this siren call it is actually intended to draw Holly, her adult daughter, to the ashram in India.
Irena finally decides that she has to fight fire with fire and this means going back to India to confront the Swami. In order to acquire the support of the country itself, she takes an indirect route to the ashram. By the time she is ready for the confrontation, Irena feels that she can draw energy from the land. In her travels, she also gathers people who realise the Swami is evil and will support her in her fight. Eventually, the two sides meet and engage in a psychic war.
