RnCL, quoting Sukkah 27b:
"as Rav Yitzchak says, from
where do we know that a man is obligated to visit his rav on the
festival as it is written "why are you going to him today it not being
new moon or shabbat" and we can infer from there that on new moon and
shabbat one is obligated to visit one's Rav."

Interesting source - in that case (Melachim Bet 4:23), the WIFE was going to
visit the Navi and was questioned by her husband (it's the story of Elisha
and the Shunamit).
