SBS passed his jiva ... blah blah ...
Such (p)suckophantic B.S.. What else could you expect from a Maharaj and a true-believing TM teacher but vacuous and esoteric prattle? This just demonstrates how ignorant both Hans and Maharaj Kanju are about the lineage of Shankara's Advaita - which MMY claimed founded his meditation practice. You can pass along your blessing but not your jiva/soul. The jiva/soul is the basis of samsara and exists only as the identification of sheer awareness with intellect-mind. This is why Patanjali gave principle importance to the sutra YS 3.35 defining discernment of the separation between awareness and intellect (purusha-buddhi viveka). The jiva is the causal source of the subtle body-mind. It does not exist as an entity but as a reflection of pure awareness. It functions as the illusion of doer-ship as it shines upon the sanskara-s and vasana-s inhabiting the causal sheath. Shakti does not mean energy (the capacity for work or activity). Rather, Shakti means power. Shakti can be transmitted to another person – a reflection cannot be transmitted to anything by anything else. Wake up and smell the stinkin left-handed fantasy.
