If I want to study music, and I want to find a best possible teacher, an
'adept' of his/her own art, I look and can find him/her in the physical
plane. Same goes with all the other 'arts'. But this is not true for
spirituality, I believe this is what you are saying?

And if there are these 'real adepts' only in inner planes, do we
personally need them? I am sure there are lot of people here 'on earth'
that we can learn from.
