Why is Guru Purnima is celebrated
Guru Purnima is celebrated to honor and express deep gratitude towards spiritual teachers, or Gurus, who guide us from darkness (ignorance) to light (knowledge and wisdom). The word "Guru" is derived from Sanskrit where Gu means darkness and Ru means remover — thus, a Guru is the one who removes the darkness of ignorance from our lives.
This sacred festival falls on the full moon (Purnima) day in the Hindu month of Ashadha (June–July), and holds special significance in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. It is believed that on this day, Maharshi Vyasa, the great sage and author of the Mahabharata, was born.
He is also credited with compiling the Vedas and writing the 18 Puranas, and is regarded as one of the greatest Gurus in Indian tradition. Hence, Guru Purnima is also known as Vyasa Purnima, and devotees pay respect to both their personal Gurus and to Sage Vyasa.
