Greetings to all Hivers, especially to the @ecoTrain community. I am honored to participate in the new question of the week related to the necessity of having a teacher for our spiritual growth. I want to start my answer by reflecting on my childhood life where my parents assigned me a directed homework teacher to teach me to read, write and learn good principles and values to succeed in my human relationships.

Having a teacher to guide me in my subjects was an important step in developing a sense of responsibility in life and to value the human being. I want to thank my parents for allowing me to have a homework teacher who could guide me in order to make my life as a student and as a person easier. From this experience, I can say that a spiritual master is necessary, because with his experience and knowledge of God he can help us to get closer to God and to know the mysteries of the creation of the universe. A Guru is a counselor who can help us to solve many problems both in the spiritual and secular area.

Having a spiritual master is of utmost importance, as it allows us to know the basic tools to get closer to God and understand more about His love. The Guru teaches us to pray and to understand the manual of life, which is the word of God. The spiritual master is our life counsel, which teaches us what God says about peace, love, joy, forgiveness, solidarity, coexistence, responsibility and many spiritual values, which allow us to know more about God for our spiritual growth.
