Guru Purnima is a religious festival, devoted to paying tribute to and seeking blessings from all the spiritual and academic gurus. According to the Hindu Calendar, it is observed on the full moon day of the month of Ashaad (June–July). As Veda Vyasa's birthday is celebrated on this day, it is also known as Vyasa Purnima. Hindus, Jains, and Buddhists all commemorate it as an occasion in India, Nepal, and Bhutan.
The Sanskrit word "guru" means "mentor," "guide," "expert," or "master." It is a privilege to recognize and honor the extraordinary gurus and teachers who have had a positive influence on our life. Hence Guru Purnima is celebrated with utmost joy and respect.
