Transmission refers to receiving chi, or a spark of energy from an advanced teacher.
Perhaps less snark, and more curiosity would serve you on topics like this.

I've had plenty of curiosity in my life time, and have drawn my own conclusions. Here's three of them.
1) There's no scientific evidence for chi. Or qi, ki, whatever you're calling it in an Asian language, because it's just, like, deeper.[1]
2) "Energy" is the most wooly thinking word ever in pseudoprofound proclamations. For the love of Jesus. (Who most likely existed, but was very definitely not the son of YHWH)
3) You can believe what you like, and I'll believe what I like. And if I ever develop fantastical beliefs, I promise I won't expect you to treat them as real things deserving of your serious consideration. And I'll hope you do me the decency of reciprocating that implicit respect.

Ah chi, well that explains everything, definitely 100% real and not made up bs at all.

I feel the terminology used in your post inspires it.
