Do We Need A Spiritual Teacher To Grow Spiritually?

I think for people who are starting on their spiritual journey, it would be great to have a Guru or a Spiritual teacher to guide them. The problem here is – true, or good gurus and spiritual teachers are hard to come by. If you wait for one, you might have to wait for your whole life, and not get started on your spiritual journey at all. Besides, how do you know that your spiritual teacher knows any more than you do? Who was his spiritual teacher? Where did he learn to be spiritual? These are valid, and important questions one must ask before becoming a pupil.

Personally, I don’t think one needs a guru or a spiritual teacher. Spirituality is a very personal thing. It has an element of affinity. Spirituality is not for everyone. One is either into it or not. If you are into it, or if the subject interests you, you will be drawn towards it. If you are not into it, no matter how, spirituality cannot be forced upon you.

When spirituality is in your destiny, you will be naturally drawn to learn more, to find out more. The Law of Attraction will put you in the path of other people who are also on the path of spirituality. If you are attentive, you will learn a lot by paying attention to what you heard, saw and observed around you. You will find that everyone and everything is your teacher.

Spirituality has a lot to do with understanding and realization. It is not knowledge that can be crammed into the head in a sitting, a session or a couple of lessons. If something is drawing you towards the spiritual path, just go along with it. Take your time to understand what is happening around you and the patience to learn – from the people around you, from the events that are happening in the world, and the unfolding of Mother Nature in everyday life. At the end of the day, Mother Nature is the best Teacher – spiritual and/or otherwise.

Maybe the proverbial Teacher will appear when you – the student is ready.

Bliss to you!

Spiritual Quotes

Meditation

The following spiritual quotes and images are not mine. They are from friends' Whatsapp messages and Facebook pages. Please refer to the right hand side of the page for related Spiritual topics.

Many people cannot allow themselves the time to sit and do nothing but breathe. They consider it to be uneconomical or a luxury. People say “time is money.” But time is much more than money. Time is life. The simple practice of sitting quietly on a regular basis can be profoundly healing. Stopping and sitting is a good way to focus on mindful breathing and nothing else. - Thich Nhat Hanh

Spiritual Quotes

The greatest degree of inner tranquillity comes from the development of love and compassion. The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. - Tenzin Gyatso, the 14tth Dalai Lama

Existence is nothing but a vain struggle against decay. - Unknown

I am not what you think I am. You are what you think I am. - Unknown

We are all leaves of one tree. We are all waves of one sea. - Thich Nhat Hanh

The following images are not mine. They are taken from Facebook pages.

Zen

The true purpose [of Zen] is to see things as they are, to observe things as they are, and to let everything go as it goes... Emotionally we have many problems, but these problems are not actual problems; they are something created by our self-centered ideas or views. When we realize the everlasting truth of “everything changes” and find our composure in it, we find ourselves in Nirvana. - Shunryu Suzuki

Buddhism

Buddhism teaches that joy and happiness arise from letting go. Please sit down and take an inventory of your life. There are things you’ve been hanging on to that really are not useful and deprive you of your freedom. Find the courage to let them go. - Thich Nhat Hanh
