गुरुर्ब्रह्मा ग्रुरुर्विष्णुः गुरुर्देवो महेश्वरः। गुरुः साक्षात् परं ब्रह्म तस्मै श्री गुरवे नमः।।

Hindu philosophy describes the “darkness” as ignorance, which can be dispelled by a guru who holds the torch of spiritual knowledge and experience. This knowledge relieves one of material miseries, illuminating the path towards selflessness and lasting happiness.

विनयफलं शुश्रूषा गुरुशुश्रूषाफलं श्रुतं ज्ञानम्।
ज्ञानस्य फलं विरतिः विरतिफलं चाश्रवनिरोधः।।

Divinity is in all of creation, in fact, we can actually learn from everyone and everything. Even in nature, strength can be taught by the mountains, which endure the strongest of storms; humility can be taught by a blade of grass, which bends to the will of its environment; tolerance can be taught by a tree, which does not protest to its leaves being pulled, its branches being cut, or its trunk being chopped.
अखण्डमण्डलाकारं व्याप्तं येन चराचरम्।
तत्पदं दर्शितं येन तस्मै श्रीगुरवे नमः।।

It’s important to remember the mercy flowing from the Absolute is not fixed or rigid. It can manifest itself in many different ways through many different people, and we must learn to become more and more open to it.
धर्मज्ञो धर्मकर्ता च सदा धर्मपरायणः।
तत्त्वेभ्यः सर्वशास्त्रार्थादेशको गुरुरुच्यते।।

Guru Purnima is traditionally celebrated by performing puja and offering prayers to guru and God. Most broadly, it is about making a conscious effort to appreciate and recognize the teachers of our past, present, and future. For it is through their grace we can hope to eventually cross over the great ocean of ignorance.

नीचं शय्यासनं चास्य सर्वदा गुरुसंनिधौ।
गुरोस्तु चक्षुर्विषये न यथेष्टासनो भवेत्।।
For Hindus the guru is a cosmic principle taking many names and forms. We can follow the guru that best takes back to our true Self.
किमत्र बहुनोक्तेन शास्त्रकोटि शतेन च।
दुर्लभा चित्त विश्रान्तिः विना गुरुकृपां परम्।।

The true guru is a position of spiritual guidance, the illuminating presence of a higher awareness. The guru is not limited to any physical person, however exalted he or she may be.
गुरौ न प्राप्यते यत्तन्नान्यत्रापि हि लभ्यते।
गुरुप्रसादात सर्वं तु प्राप्नोत्येव न संशयः।।

Guru Purnima dawns the realisation of people going back to their roots, to their Gurus and find a road to illumination, an optimistic mindset and peaceful verdict.
विद्वत्त्वं दक्षता शीलं सङ्कान्तिरनुशीलनम्।
शिक्षकस्य गुणाः सप्त सचेतस्त्वं प्रसन्नता।।

Wishing you all a very happy Guru Purnima.
