In Hinduism, even though the highest status is given to God, a Guru or a Teacher is considered invaluable and ranked one step above the Almighty. It is believed that if a deity curses a native, the Gurus can save him/her from the wrath, but if our Guru curses us, then even God cannot save us from what’s coming. Based on this, Kabir has mentioned in his couplet, 

‘गुरु गोविन्द दोनों खड़े, काके लागूं पाँय। बलिहारी गुरु आपनो, गोविंद दियो बताय॥’

‘Guru Govind Dono Khade, Kake Laagu Paaye। Balihari Guru Aapno, Govind Diyo Bataye॥’

The festival of Guru Purnima is celebrated every year on the Purnima or Full Moon day during the month of Ashadha. The Teacher, Guru, or Guru-like Figure is worshipped on this day.

Guru Purnima is also known as Ashadha Shukla Purnima, and Maharishi Vyasa was also believed to have incarnated on the day of Ashadh Purnima. Maharishi Vyasa was the son of Parashar Rishi and grandson of Maharishi Vashishta. The day holds high significance because Maharishi Vyas has been given the status of the Guru of the Gurus, that is, the most Superior among all the Gurus.

This is the reason why on Ashada Shukla Purnima, all the disciples worship their Gurus and receive their blessings. On this day, seek the blessings of your Guru, teachers in schools and colleges, and elders in the family.

Astrological Importance of Guru Purnima

According to astrology, the planet Moon on this date remains in the Jupiter ruled Sagittarius and Venus-ruled Purvashadha Nakshatra. This is because the Moon is the benefactor of one’s mind and heart, which is why an unbreakable bond with both the Gurus aims one to develop a moral and justified behaviour.

At the same time, the sky remains covered with thick clouds throughout the month of Ashadha. Hence, when the Moon shines bright on the day of Purnima, it is believed to ward away darkness. This is why the tradition of worshipping Ved Vyas and Sukhdev, the interpreter of Vedas, on this day is mentioned in the Puranas. Therefore, Purnima is the Guru, while Ashadh is a disciple.
