Conjurers and tricksters CAN transmit Shakti, of course! You can
transmit shakti if you so desire. It's a siddhi that appears in
Illusion. It is not Reality. It can give a sense of being transmitted
if you conceive it so. But where is it felt? That's the key. It is
felt within oneself only. Has the experience lasted? That's the main
indicator of it's delusional nature. Where has it gone, and for who
has it come and gone? Shakti is experienced within oneself, not in
another. Thinking that it comes from another is only an indication of
bodily mis-identification.

I have met many spiritual teachers who can knock your socks off with
shakti, but they are definitely NOT satgurus. Any of you can become a
transmitter shakti by doing some pranayama practices for some time.
But this is not self-realization. It is a hindrance on the the path of
realization, taking the Illusion to be Reality.

Transmission of any kind is all of the nature of Illusion. Even the
transmission of words that the Satguru gives are only found in
Illusion, nowhere else. A true satguru tells you this. A guru that
tells you that he is special or that s/he can give something that no
one else can give is a deceiver. You already are what you are. The
true guru removes the darkness of ignorance, nothing else. He doesn't
give you anything except the knowledge to remove the ignorance, then
tells you to throw off even that knowledge.

There is no dependence created by the satguru on the bodily form of
anyone, including the form of the guru. Those who are fascinated by
miracles and powers want them to mean something special. They mean
nothing except that they are false. The fact that they appear proves
their falsehood. If one wants them to mean something special, they are
conceived to be special and taken to be true as long as that concept
of specialness is held on to. As long as the bodliy identification and
fascination with miracles and powers persists, one remains stagnant in
their spiritual state, even though the illusion of progress may be
there. Many miracles will come and go and many spiritual experiences
will come and go for the individual who is fascinated by them. The one
who sees all the coming and going should be found out. That is the
main point of spiritual life, not richness or quantity of experiences,
or how much shakti one has accumulated or can transmit. Once the body
is gone, the transmitter and receiver of shakti is gone. How can that
be Reality?

So long as the fascination with experiences and personalities is
there, these words will fall upon deaf ears. If the fascination with
all such appearances is left aside, one will naturally say, "of
course, how could it be otherwise."
