Yes there is more than one way of giving shaktipat. My teacher knows a "remote" technique too but hasn't taught me it. If you can find the movie "Holy Smoke" by Jane Campion (it's up on YouTube in parts and available streaming on Amazon) the opening has a scene with Kate Winslet getting shaktipat. Campion seems to have some knowledge of TM because she has a group checking session in the movie "Sweetie" which is available on Hulu, VUDU and iTunes.
