Obviously, the writer is not qualified to give a
definitive answer to this question, but here is one
point of view:

1.  India is permeated with tremendous spiritual
vibrations due to the nature of the Great Ones that
incarnated there - this would not be available in most
other places in the world.

2.  When a person lives in a country outside of India
(applies to all living outside their own country), he
or she gets bound karmically to that country by virtue
of merely living there - for example, many people may
have sacrificed their lives for this other country,
and the foreigner is living off their labor/sacrifice;
or the country may have been occupied illegally and by
deceit, and the foreigner, if he lives off that land,
and consumes the food grown in that soil, is literally
taking on the bad karma of that land; or the country's
leaders may lead or may have led the country into
wrong wars (like Hitler, and others for example)- the
person again gets karmically bound if he lives in that
soil/country, etc.  India is the only country in the
world that has not initiated a war on its own,
illegally occupied territory, etc.

3.  The person could be used as a medium (almost
always without his knowledge) for evil from this
foreign country to enter India when he visits India.

4.  Other causes could be: simple practical reasons
such as differences in culture, weather, religion,
lack of good/moral values in society (for example,
Sweden has a highly permissive/liberal society - the
environ is not suitable for spiritual progress either
for the person or his progeny), etc.

Yet some Great Indian Yogis have travelled/lived in
foreign countries, as ordained by their Indian Gurus -
why?  Perhaps their motive was not to have a
comfortable, rich (moneywise) life but to propagate
spiritual values throughout the world as per the
principle : Vasudeiva Kutumbakam.
