This is what Muktananda did with his students, no ? Problem is that they are dependent of the shakti of the teacher to perform the siddhi, in the same way as the students of Rama were. That is if Rama students had independent experiences ofcourse. And that is why Muktananda praised Maharishi for giving knowledge for the whole world independent of him personally because he saw that Maharishis role was more universal and has effect beyond a small group of students. When Maharishi leaves we can go on and on with the practise independent of his shakti.
