If you decide to perform spiritual practice for God-realisation, choose to stay only in India; because, though the condition of Indians is not very good, there is no country in the world as sattvik as India.
The proportion of Raja-Tama components in all other countries is higher than India.
However, people who are at a spiritual level above 50% can stay anywhere in the world and perform spiritual practice.
