“If you want, you may miss Guru Darshan on festivals like Holi or Dipawali, but never miss being in the company of your Guru on Guru Purnima, for it is the biggest and most important festival for disciples. The day has the power to bring positive transformation into a disciple’s life.”
-HH Sudhanshu Ji Maharaj
Guru Purnima, a beautiful and ancient tradition, stands as a testament to the strong bond between a Guru and their disciples. This sacred day, dedicated to expressing gratitude to the Guru, carries profound significance in the spiritual calendar of any Guru devotee.
The transformative power of Guru Purnima lies not only in the rituals performed but also in the deep-seated recognition of the Guru’s crucial role in guiding devotees, disciples, and seekers towards happiness, blissfulness, self-knowledge, progress, and inner peace.
The sacred celebration transforms Guru’s devotees by deepening their spiritual connection, filling them with gratitude, and strengthening devotion. The holy rituals and teachings received during this auspicious day inspire self-reflection, personal growth, and renewed commitment to the Guru’s path, enhancing the devotee’s spiritual journey and inner peace.
Celebrated with zeal and devotion, it is a day that underscores the timeless wisdom imparted by our Gurus, His Holiness Sudhanshu Ji Maharaj and Dr. Archika Didi.
Guru Purnima: An Occasion to Bring Perfection to Your Spiritual Life
Param Pujya Maharajshri says, “Life is a long journey. In the course of this journey, the inner world of any human being cannot stay untouched by some Tamasic attributes and negativities that weaken and sometimes completely suppress ‘Saubhagya’—the divine element that makes life happy and prosperous.
“To awaken Saubhagya, or good luck, and get a protective shield that not only protects a human from life’s inevitable turbulence but also motivates him or her to make consistent progress in life, a devotee goes for Guru Darshan, especially on the auspicious occasion of Guru Purnima.”
“Guru Purnima has a great significance when it comes to the sacred bond between a Guru and devotee. Certain times are of immense importance in life, for example, the day on which a person takes birth or the first day of a new year on which we make a resolution to start life afresh; likewise, in the spiritual realm, Guru Purnima can be considered a new day or a fresh year for a Guru devotee.”
“On this Vyas Parv, it is important for every disciple to visit his or her Guru and elaborate on his or her spiritual progress; take Sankalp (resolution) to further make progress and reach new heights in life.”
Guru Purnima: The Most Important Festival for Disciples
Param Pujya Maharajshri also says, “Guru Purnima is an opportunity when everyone gathers at the Guru Dham, contemplates in the company of Guru, and such a congregation opens the door to self-reflection, joy, and progress in life.”
“India is a land of festivals. In some festivals, we express our reverence toward God, like Ram Navami and Janmashtami. There are also festivals to celebrate certain relationships, like Raksha Bandhan and Karva Chuath. Likewise, there is also a festival that celebrates a relationship that is above any relationship in this world—the bond of a Guru and disciple.”
“Guru Purnima is the day to express gratitude, receive affection from Guru, get connected to His grace, and get ready to make life precious with His blessings.”
“So, this Vyas Parv or Guru Purnima is celebrated, and it is an occasion that brings perfection to anybody’s spiritual life, just like the moon that displays its matchless beauty on the night of Purnima, and it looks just perfect.”
“Everyone should endeavor to give his or her life such timeless beauty and perfection. And Guru Purnima is the occasion to realize such a transformation in life. If you want, you may miss Guru Darshan on festivals like Holi or Dipawali, but never miss being in the company of Guru on Guru Purnima, for it is the biggest and most important festival for disciples. The day has the power to bring positive transformation into a disciple’s life.”
Therefore, on Guru Purnima, disciples gather to honor Param Pujya Maharajshri’s contributions to their spiritual journeys.

Therefore, on Guru Purnima, disciples in India and abroad partake in various social service activities, embodying the spirit of giving and compassion that He teaches.
