There's always hope. And yes, it's plausible that the Vedanti patent will survive intact as an original invention.
It may well be that non disciples of Rurouni are all idiots, incapable of deciphering his mysticism, but I can't help but notice that he doesn't come on this board, where the critics bite and ask him to substantiate his assertions. He seems to have acquired a pretty fawning crowd elsewhere for reasons that are entirely mysterious at least to me. He predicts poorly, and all while saying he has confidential knowledge that he shouldn't share, none of which seems credible anyway. And when confronted he conflates and backtracks, and puts up jiffs of crying babies.
