Guru
Poornima is the sacred day which gives an opportunity to the
seekers to remember and worship the Guruparampara, with a
depth and exclusiveness that mark the occasion as greatly
sublime and unique. Following the birth of one’s body from
the parents, Guru and Gurusanga alone take the mind and
heart to their very source and bestow the joy of supreme
knowledge and salvation.
Guru is the last word in the voyage of the human soul
of Eternality. And
Gurupoornima beckons us to intensify and deepen our search
and discovery.
