# One should stand for one's Rebbe Muvhak once he enters one's eyesight until he leaves one's eyesight.<ref>Shulchan Aruch YD 242:16. Ran (Kiddushin 14a s.v. kemelo aynav) says that the reason that one needs to say for one’s rav muvhak when he sees him is because it is evident that one is standing in honor of one’s rebbe even though he is far away. The Rambam (Mamrim 6:3 as understood by the Griz Talmud Torah 5:11) says that one standing as far as one can see one’s rav muvhak because there’s an additional obligation of honoring him just like one honor’s parent, which is different than the regular obligation to stand for a talmid chacham. </ref> A Rebbe Muvhak is defined as a teacher that one learned a majority of one's learning from.<ref>Gemara Bava Metsia 33a, Shulchan Aruch YD 242:30</ref>
