It is very common for students to imagine that private lessons and long-term practice with an instructor guarantees receipt of the inner teachings.
This is naive.
Traditionally, the secret workings of an art were passed on to family members first.
After family members, lineage students were the next consideration.
Everyone else was taught relative to their degree of commitment, and this seldom entailed the secret material.
