When I am using meteor methods to return a query result.

Meteor.methods({
    rquery: function(post){
        console.log(post);
        var result = AdvtColl.find();
        return result;
    }
});

You can't return a cursor from a method - only EJSON. In your code, result is the result of a find call, which is a cursor - you need to either use findOne or add fetch() after the find() to return the document(s) in question.

var result = AdvtColl.findOne(); // RETURNS A DOCUMENT

var result = AdvtColl.find().fetch(); // RETURNS AN ARRAY OF DOCS (EVEN IF THERE'S ONLY ONE OF THEM)
