17 of the Best Spiritual Teachers to Learn From
For those who are interested in subjects like consciousness, spiritual living and even the Law of Attraction, there is much to be gained from learning from a multitude of spiritual teachers. Fortunately, the world has many, and some of the best spiritual teachers are alive right now to inspire us and provide us with guidance!
I believe each new teacher I’ve encountered has brought his or her own unique perspective and gifts to the spiritual community. I’ve also found that different teachers have resonated with me at different times along my path. As they say “when the student is ready, the teacher appears.”
So today, I offer you a list of some of my favorite spiritual teachers (in no particular order).
If you are looking for a spiritual “lift” scan down the list and select the teacher that sounds most appealing in this moment. Whichever name you gravitate to is the best selection. Then, do a little searching and find a book, quote, movie or video clip by this teacher and read or watch. Let your intuition guide you to receive the teachings that are right for you!
- Lao Tzu: Ancient Chinese philosopher and author of the “Tao Te Ching.”
- Marianne Williamson: American writer and spiritual teacher most noted for her book “A Return to Love: ‘Reflections on the Principles of ‘A Course In Miracles.’”
- Eckhart Tolle: German spiritual teacher and author of “The Power of Now,” amongst others.

I would include Doreen Virtue on that list too. I find her weekly card readings very accurate. xx

I agree that different teachers resonate at different times. Sometimes you’re just not ready for what you read. I read Byron Katie but was not really getting it, re-read her a year later and whoa, I am seeing amazing transformations in my thinking.
