Guru Purnima Wishes

A famous verse known by heart by all children glorifies the Guru:

गुरुर्ब्रह्मा गुरुर्विष्णुः गुरुर्देवो महेश्वरः ।
गुरुरेव परंब्रह्म तस्मै श्रीगुरवे नमः ॥

Gurubrahma Guruvishnu Gururdevo Maheshwaraha |
Guruhu sakshaat Parambrahman tasmai Shrigurave namaha ||

Guru is verily the representative of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. He creates, sustains knowledge and destroys the weeds of ignorance. I salute such a Guru.

Salutation to the noble Guru, who is Brahma, Vishnu and Maheswara, the direct Parabrahma, the Supreme Reality!!

The true meaning of Guru is "one who dispels shadows of ignorance". "Gu" means "shadows of ignorance" and "Ru" means "one who removes".

The day of full moon, Purnima, in the month of Ashadh is traditionally celebrated as Guru Purnima by Hindus. Also known as Vyas Purnima, the day is celebrated in remembrance and veneration to sage Ved Vyas. He is the Adi (original) Guru of the Hindu Dharma, who classified the Vedas, wrote the eighteen Puranas and the Mahabharat. On this day, the Guru is offered Pujan (worship) by the disciples. First we shall consider the role of a Guru in life.

Hindus attach paramount importance to spiritual gurus. Gurus are often equated with God and always regarded as a link between the individual and the Immortal. Just as the moon shines by reflecting the light of the sun, and glorifies it, all disciples can dazzle like the moon by gaining from their Gurus.

As you walk with the Guru, you walk in the light of Existence, away from the darkness of ignorance.
You leave behind all the problems of your life and move towards the peak experiences of life.
Happy Guru Purnima

Celebration of Guru Purnima is about devotion, respect, appreciation and salutation towards to Guru/Teacher.

My Teacher to Created My Life, I Really Thankfulness To Him, For Being In My life…

Happy Guru Purnima to all!!!!
