"I do not know what was protected other than a handful of peoples idea of territorial rights."

Apparently the jury did not see it that way.

"This seems to me the drawn out conclusion of why Lahiri Mahashay did not allow organizations to form around him. I'm sure SRF was formed for the best reasons, but seems to have turned out to be the mistake that Lahiri Mahashay warned about."

What does this mean? Are you saying that Lahiri Mahasaya objected to organisations on the grounds that they might sue to protect their commercial rights?

"What we have now is an organization that promotes its Guru as God, the chosen one, and will sue anyone that gets in its way."

Since SRF has only been involved in one lawsuit (and one involving YSS over some Indian property) it is hardly reasonable to describe it as an organisation which "will sue anyone that gets in its way."

As for Yogananda being the "chosen one," if by that you mean the one who was chosen by Babaji to bring Kriya to the west and establish a worldwide movement, then yes, that is SRF's belief. It was from the beginning, and is recorded as such in "Autobiography of a Yogi."

In what way has SRF failed as a result of winning this case?
