Here is the quote for those who wish to judge by themselves:

Q - Some people claiming their ancestry to Sri Yukteswar and Lahiri Mahasaya are teaching Kriya Yoga in the West. Please comment.

A (Daya Ma) - Receiving Kriya is more than obtaining a set of instructions; it means forming a sacred bond between one's soul and the guru sent by God to lead one back to Him--for it is when practiced within the auspices of that holy relationship that Kriya can fully impart its blessings. And a person's choice of a guru is completely individual matter between that devotee and God; it is not for anyone else to comment on. What we tell people is that if they wish to enter the guru-disciple relationship with Paramahansa Yogananda, then the YSS/SRF teaching is the way to do so. He promised that he and his paramgurus would guide and guard the spiritual progress of all who receive Kriya initiation through the society he himself established for this purpose, if they keep in tune through faithful practice of the teachings.
-- Self-Realization magazine, Fall 1999, page 25.
