"These gurus (including this guy yogananda) had/have been practicing business under the guise of spirituality.
Don't get shocked and/or start admonishing me...please read my say before you make your stand."

Oh im not shocked in the least, and i am not going to admonish you either, because you are just too far away from reality! I am just amused by your response!

"This guy" as you call Shri Yogananda.....He needs no defending at all!
You are throwing out the baby with the bath water Damodar, but is ok if you dont see it.
I am not interested in trying to convince you , that Sri Yogananda was a Master and a true man of God.
I just stated the fact that i love his illuminating and one of a kind autobiography, and that Marshall Govindams book "Babaji and the 18 Kriya Yoga tradition' book is simply out of this world, it is spectacular!

I agree that 99% of so called Gurus are fake, but one must not be so confused, that one puts even true authentic Gurus in the same category!
Because only you are harmed in this way, nobody else.
