Guru Purnima is celebrated on a full moon day or Purnima, falling in Ashadha month, as per the Hindu lunar calendar.
This year, people are celebrating the auspicious day on Wednesday, July 13. The festival is also known as ‘Vyasa Purnima’ as it marks the birth anniversary of ‘Veda Vyasa’, who is regarded as the author of Mahabharata.
This is the day to thank our teachers and mentors who have inspired us to become better versions of ourselves, for their guidance and teachings.
