🪔 About Guru Purnima

It is the day Muni Ved Vyas manifested. He wrote the Mahabharat and the 18 Puranas.

On Guru Purnima, we also express our gratitude and pay obeisance to the Guru Tattva, the divine guiding light within. Let’s pledge to discover our truth and be free. There can be no higher gift we offer Sri Krishna, the Jagadguru (Guru of the World), and Lord Shiv (the first Guru of Sanatan Dharm).
