Full Circle
In 2014, Keegan founded Full Circle, a community spiritual center based in Venice, Los Angeles. The organization was characterized in different ways, as some publications like "Vice" referred to it as a new religion while others called it a cult. Keegan himself described the group as a "non-denominational spiritual community center where people of all beliefs and backgrounds come together to meditate, practice yoga, and engage artistically." Publications did some research into the group to try to understand the belief system it was following. "New York Magazine" determined it loosely seemed to follow Hinduism.
In 2015, the Full Circle temple was raided by California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control officers in relation to the group's distribution of kombucha, a fermented beverage made from black tea. The temple reportedly did not know that they needed a license to distribute kombucha. In 2017, Full Circle closed due to financial difficulties, largely due to a sharp increase in property values in the area, which made it challenging to afford the price of rent.
