If you want to learn anything well, you look for a teacher who has mastered the subject you want to learn. Why should you think differently when it comes yo your spiritual life?
To find a way out of suffering, you must find a guide who has already found the way out and can show how to do it yourself.

This course considers the role of the teacher on the spiritual path, how to find the “right” teacher, and how to relate to that teacher once we have established a connection with them.
