Krishna offers a second possibility — and says it is even more rare. The fallen yogi may be born not just into a good family, but into the family of wise yogis. A household where meditation, study, and spiritual practice are the daily rhythm of life.
Why is this rarer and more precious? Because a child born into such an environment absorbs sadhana like a language. No one has to convince them to sit quietly or pick up a scripture. The atmosphere does the work. It is like being born in a house full of music — you grow up singing without being taught.
Krishna calls this 'durlabhataram' — rarer still. Wealth and virtue are one thing. But a family steeped in genuine yogic wisdom? That is a rare gift, and it is the direct fruit of sincere practice left unfinished in a previous life.
