Life has many ups and downs. A Guru smiles and celebrates with you when all's good in your life. He's also the one who lifts you back up when life hits you hard. A Guru, above everything else, is your loyal friend. He's the one who stays when everyone leaves. @SriSri #Gurupurnima pic.twitter.com/7ZgoHl3iut

Significance of Guru Purnima
Guru Purnima is celebrated to honour and thank our Guru, teachers. The day marks the religious activities and may include ceremonial events to praise the Gurus, which is called Guru Pooja. According to Hindu writings, the word "Guru" is formed from two Sanskrit words "Gu" and "Ru". Gu means darkness or ignorance, and Ru denotes the remover of that darkness. Thus, a person who cleans the darkness in your life is known as a Guru.
On this day, followers offer pooja (worship) or pay respect to their Guru. Apart from the religious importance, Guru Purnima also has great significance for Indian academics and scholars. Indian academics celebrate this day by thanking their teachers as well as remembering past teachers and scholars.
In Buddhism, Guru Purnima is celebrated in honour of Lord Buddha. He gave his first sermon on this day at Sarnath in Uttar Pradesh. Hindu mythology also says that on Guru Purnima, Lord Shiva, the Agi Guru or the original teacher, started the transmission of yoga to the Saptarishis. The day also marks the birthday of Ved Vyasa, known to be one of the greatest gurus of India and the author of Mahabharata. Apart from India, Guru Purnima is also celebrated in Nepal as Teachers Day, which in India is marked on September 5.
