The pupil is called bhaktiman, "devoted" — and this word stands first among his qualifications, before learning or austerity. Also noted is how he asks: pranjalih, "with folded palms," vinaya-anvitah, "filled with humility," and ekante, "in private." All three details are worth examining, because together they describe the very condition under which teaching is transmitted at all.
Folded palms are a bodily sign: a person shows that his hands are empty and that he intends to take nothing on his own. Humility is a state in which he is ready to hear something he did not devise himself. In private — because in the presence of others a question is asked differently, with an eye to how it looks.
The Vaishnava side states this condition in a single verse of the Gita, worth quoting in full: tad viddhi pranipatena pariprashnena sevaya — "know this by prostration, by earnest inquiry, and by service" (4.34). Three conditions, and they match exactly the three details here: prostration — folded palms, inquiry — the question itself, service — that which makes a pupil a pupil, not merely a listener. Worth noting that the first of Sankriti's qualifications is not "learned" and not "an ascetic," but bhaktiman. The teaching of yoga, then, is given not to the more capable, but to one attached to the teacher; and this relation will prove decisive for the whole book.
