Im not fully in agreement with that, but I understand thats been your experience

 

My experience is these things arent  as rare as you claim, however, getting access to them is very rare, and normally requires amongst other things

 

  • A solid foundation  in internal work prior to even approaching a senior (not a teacher)
  • The ability to pass several tests, some of which are internal, others of which are character
  • The exchage of large sums of money initially (ive personally had figues in excess of 50k quoted to me)
  • The will to waste a lot of time hitting dead ends

 

Should any of the above be missing from the equation, it wouldnt surprise me if you hit dead end after dead end

what kind of solid foundation is needed?  what kind of internal tests are done? can you describe them?

Depends on the school

As above

Theres too much to detail here

 

One example would be the ability to hold a  strenous  posture comfortably  and be at ease while doing it for around 4 hours without stopping

 

Another might be something like putting you in a specific scenario to check how you react (a test of certain mental qualities)

 

Much of the time you'd not even be aware you're being tested, which makes it trickier because you cannot just grunt your way through things, it means that you must always be  living in this state alwayys

 

Id rather not get into it beyond that , as it is a  long discussion, but that might give you an idea
