The blessed day of guru purnima
A satsang discourse on the significance of Guru Pūrṇimā.
"Guru Pūrṇimā is the day when, for the first time, the light of the sun was descending on this planet."
"Lucky are they who can be with the Master. And also, lucky or fortunate are they, at least they can be mentally with their Master."
A spiritual teacher addresses a gathering on the holy day of Guru Pūrṇimā. He explains its glory as the day sunlight first descended and as the birthday of sage Vyāsa, linking it to the eternal Sanātana Dharma. Through devotional songs and analogies, he describes the disciple's longing for the Guru, the transformative power of grace, and the day's role as the start of the spiritual year, where devotees present the fruits of their practice and take new resolutions.
