Any being who has traveled the path before you and guided you on your spiritual journey. Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, and Moses are a few of the most notable examples.
A parent or grandparent, a priest or minister, the Dalai Lama, or the author of a book that has helped you along they way can also be considered a Spiritual Ancestor.

From what I found the people who held the same spiritual beliefs as you in the past.
See: "We do not imply that Christians today are responsible for actions by their spiritual ancestors in past centuries"
and
"In the name of our spiritual ancestors who suffered persecution during the Inquisition, we respectfully request inclusion of Pagans and Witches..."

They are those of your less than intellectual ancestors who thought the world was flat and disease was caused by demons, who came up with the pile of crap you now call ultimate truth.

Your grandparents?
