The ultimate quest of a spiritual endeavour depends on the quality of the seeker, the role of the time and place is but secondary.
The word adhikari is often misinterpreted, this is not about birth or money, the adhikari or eligible adept here, will progress because he knows and recognizes and woks his blocks.
A person could be mechanically practising yoga, pranayama and doing external rituals will succeed in this journey, and how great the master is also not relevant to the adept’s journey. What is important is the adept’s willingness to work with his blocks. If the adept is not willing to work with his blocks his journey then remains untraversed.
