A nondescript building within the Aum [sect] complex at Mt. Fuji housed one of the most sophisticated chemicals manufacturing facilities in the world. The building, known as Satian 7, had cost $10 million. The name "Satian" was derived from the ancient Sanskrit word for truth. All buildings within the compound were given this designation followed by a number. This particular building had only one purpose: to produce one of the most deadly nerve toxins in the world - sarin gas.
