Gurupurnima tomorrow

Sanatan Sanstha would celebrate Gurupurnima at Ravipuram Bhajana Sangham, near Ravipuram Shri Krishna Temple on 29th July from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm. Vyasa Pooja, and spiritual discourses on Sadhana and Dharmajagruti would be conducted. The organisation has extended its invitation to people from all walks of life.

According to the organisation, the relationship between the guru and the shishya is considered very sacred. A saint was once asked to tell the importance of Bharat with the least amount of words and the saint had promptly replied, “the Guru shishya parampara”

This is the only true relationship. This relationship is purely spiritual in nature. The only awareness that a disciple should foster is, ‘I should be uplifted spiritually’. The guru too harbours only one thought, ‘May this disciple be uplifted’. This relationship is independent of age of the two. It is based on maturity of Gyan (spiritual knowledge) and sadhana (spiritual practice).

Seekers try to get as much opportunity to do satseva of a guru as possible during the Gurupurnima period. As the guru principle is a 1000 times more active during this period when compared to any other day during the year, the satseva (service to the absolute truth) done fetches substantial grace of the guru for their spiritual progress.

According to Sanatan, from the spiritual experiences of seekers while doing satseva during the period, one can understand the immense faith they have towards God and their earnestness for satseva.
