True Guru’s Grace: From Darkness to Light
Guru Purnima, traditionally celebrated with deep devotion, symbolizes the timeless bond between the teacher and the disciple. It is a day to acknowledge the invaluable role of a Guru—not just as an instructor, but as a source of inspiration, wisdom, and transformation. The Guru helps awaken the inner light, guiding individuals on the path of righteousness and self-realization. Beyond rituals and offerings, the essence of this day lies in sincere gratitude and the commitment to live by the teachings received. To walk under the guidance of a true Guru is indeed one of life’s greatest blessings.
Guru Purnima and Origin of the word “Guru”
Origin of Guru Purnima
Guru Purnima is an ancient Indian festival deeply rooted in spiritual and cultural traditions. It is observed on the full moon day (Purnima) in the Hindu month of Ashadha (June–July) as a time to honor and express gratitude to one’s guru, the teacher or spiritual guide.
Spiritual Origin:
The origin of Guru Purnima is traditionally linked to Maharishi Ved Vyasa, the sage who compiled the Vedas, authored the Mahabharata, and composed the Puranas. It is believed that on this day, he was born and also began teaching his disciples. Hence, Guru Purnima is also known as Vyasa Purnima.
Yogic Significance:
In yogic tradition, Guru Purnima is considered the day when Lord Shiva, the Adi Guru (first teacher), began imparting knowledge of yoga to his seven disciples, known as the Saptarishis. This marks the beginning of the Guru–Shishya Parampara (teacher-disciple lineage).
Buddhist Connection:
For Buddhists, Guru Purnima marks the day when Lord Buddha delivered his first sermon at Sarnath following his enlightenment. It is a sacred occasion dedicated to reflection and deep reverence for spiritual teachings.
