Chapter 21 teaches that merely being physically near a Saint is not enough to receive their vision or company. The primary requirement is the dawning of good fortune and the presence of God's grace. The author uses his own life as an example, explaining how he was a Magistrate in Bandra and lived near the Siddha Pir Maulana, yet his pride and "ill-luck" prevented him from ever visiting. The text explicitly states, "Unless good fortune dawns, One does not encounter Saints and Sages; even if He is near one's pillow, the sinful person cannot see Him." As Chapter 21 further clarifies, the "company of Saints is not accessible to the unfortunate; It is easy only when God’s grace is present."
