Guru Purnima (Sanskrit: गुरु पूर्णिमा) The Full Moon Day in the month of Ashadha (July-August) is known as Guru Purnima. This sacred day marks the very first transmission of the yogic sciences from Shiva – the Adiyogi or First Yogi – to the Saptarishis, the seven celebrated sages. This momentous occasion took place on the banks of the lake Kantisarovar, which stands a few kilometers above the Kedarnath Temple in the Himalayas. Thus, the Adiyogi became the Adi Guru or the First Guru on this day. The Saptarishis carried this knowing offered by Adiyogi throughout the world. Even today, every spiritual process on the planet draws from the spine of knowing created by Adiyogi. Is a Hindu festival dedicated to spiritual and academic teachers. This festival traditionally celebrated by Hindus and Buddhists, to thank their teachers. It is marked by ritualistic respect to the Guru, Guru Puja. The Guru Principle is a thousand times more active on the day of Gurupournima than on any other day. The word Guru is derived from two words, Gu and Ru. The Sanskrit root Gu means darkness or ignorance. Ru denotes the remover of that darkness. Therefore one who removes darkness of our ignorance is a Guru. Gurus are believed by many to be the most necessary part of lives. On this day, disciples offer puja (worship) or pay respect to their Guru (Spiritual Guide). It falls on the day of full moon, Purnima, in the month of Ashadh (June–July) of the Shaka Samvat, Indian national calendar and Hindu calendar. This is the good time to gain the grace of the Guru. This is the best time to be in the presence of the Guru. In daily life we are observe pay respect to hundreds of people who do not deserve. The immediate boss, a chaparasi, a clerk, a babu, a politician, to push our files that will give some monetary gains or some benefit. We pay respect to our elders and parents unconditionally. Either they are your well-wisher or no, either they have been good to you or not. But Guru is the only person in our life who is doing things that are not going to benefit to him. He is always concerned about his disciple and his well being. His grace is equal on all his disciples. His unselfish & unconditional love is to be respected on this day or this month. And Our Guru “Shri Pant Maharaj Balekundri” is the most potent source of love affection. So pls offer ur respect to him.
