Guru poornima 2020
In Hinduism, Guru is considered superior to God. Because it is the Guru who helps to cross the ocean like this world. By attaining the knowledge of the Guru and following the path shown, one attains salvation. It has been said in the scriptures that if God curses you, then the Guru can protect you, but even God himself cannot save you from the curse given by the Guru. That is why Kabir ji also says -
गुरु गोविन्द दोनों खड़े, काके लागूं पाँय।
बलिहारी गुरु आपनो, गोविंद दियो बताय॥
Every year, the full moon of Ashadh month is celebrated as Guru Purnima. The Guru is worshiped on Guru Purnima. In India, this festival is celebrated with great reverence. In the ancient times, when the disciples used to get free education in the Guru's ashram, on this day, they used to organize their worship with full devotion. On this day, not only the Guru, but whoever is older than himself in the house means that parents, siblings, etc. are considered as gurus and blessings are taken from them.
