A Spiritual Guru has five important qualities: 

1. Practice what you preach: 

Vethathiri Maharishi practiced what he preached. 

He did the exercises, kayakalpa yoga, meditation, introspection and observed silence regularly. 

When you look up to a teacher like him, you are truly inspired. 

He lived by example. 

That's the kind of teacher we must aspire to be.

2. Thoughts, words and actions are in sync: 

A person whose thought, words and actions are in sync is a high integrity person.

3. Non-hurting: 

A spiritual guru will not speak, act or think in a way that might bring hurt to another. His life will be spent on removing hurts from within and without for himself and others. 

4. Harmony in relationship: 

A guru who is worthy of our respect and following is someone whose relationship with everyone around is in complete harmony. 

5. Divinity: 

A person who has spent enough time in silence introspecting would understand that he is only a fraction of the divine force.
