Guru / Vyasa Pournima

[Guest guest]

Namaste,

 

Today is the Full Moon day in the month of Ashadha,

celebrated to honor Vyasa for his contributions as a Teacher of

Sanatana Dharma [Eternal Religion].

 

Humanity's debt to Vyasa is incalculable, as every

subsequent teacher has adopted his writings as the last word.

 

The renunciants (sanyasi-s) traditionally begin their 4-

month period of intensive studies/meditation/penance, etc. on this day

 

May we all remember him in gratitude, and seek his blessings

to follow his teachings.
