What is the author's reflection on the role of 'good fortune' in being able to meet a saint?

The author emphasizes in Chapter 21 that the company of saints is not easily attained. He 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." He uses his own failure to visit Pir Maulana as a prime example of this principle. The chapter concludes this thought by explaining that the company of saints is inaccessible to the unfortunate and is only made easy when God's grace is present. Without this divine grace, the union with a saint is considered very difficult to achieve.
