Atmakaraka or Lagnadhipathi? Who comes first?

Can some learned one clear my doubts?

Both are said to be important, But.....
1. Atmakaraka gives results according to its true nature
2. Lagnadhipathi gives benefical results to native where ever he is positioned.
3. What if Atmakaraka and lagnadhipathi are the same.
4. What if Atmakaraka and lagnadhipathi are enemies.
5. If Atmakaraka and lagnadhipathi are enemies? who will do good?
6. In the case of Atmakaraka and lagnadhipathi being same planet;
Can such a planet do good if posted in dustanas such as 3,6,8,12
with its lord and being retograde also.

theorotically, 'atmakaraka' means the reason of the soul for the present incarnation. Of the two, i think lagnadhipati is more important. Infact, it is the pivot of the horoscope. Lagna is also known as tanu bhava i.e signifies the 'self' of the person.
Also, lagnadhipati may not be beneficial always, especially when it is weakly disposed i.e in a bad house or if it is debilitated.
If lagnadhipati and atmakaraka are enemies, it has to be seen that where the two are placed in the chart. If thay are in a good house, they will not harm the person even if they are enemies.
If atmakaraka and lagnesh are same, they can do good in some cases. eg if mars is the atmakaraka and lagnadhipati and placed in the third house, it is good for the native.
