Guru Purnima

Worship

Guru Purnima is a religious festival dedicated to offering respect to all the spiritual and academic gurus. This festival is traditionally observed to honour one's chosen spiritual teachers or leaders. It is observed on the full moon day (Purnima) in the month of Ashadha (June–July) according to the Hindu Calendar.

The word guru is derived from the Sanskrit root words, gu and ru. Gu means "Darkness" or "Ignorance", and ru means "Dispeller." Therefore, a guru is the dispeller of darkness or ignorance.
