Guru Purnima epitomizes the importance given from time immemorial to Gurus, who continue to enrich the lives of people with knowledge and wisdom, generations after generations. #GuruPoornima

In India for ages,a Guru or a teacher has played a very significant role in every individual's life and has been the most important influence after his or her parents
Values are best taught through example.Teachers have to be role models exemplifying the value system #GuruPurnima

My advice to #teachers is to focus on the holistic development of the students in the true ‘Guru-Sishya’ parampara. There is a need to provide a personal touch to make learning that much more interesting.#GuruPurnima2020

Despite the ubiquitous presence of technology in our lives today, it simply cannot substitute a Guru, who not only imparts knowledge, but also inculcates values, humane thinking, compassion and discipline, among others, in the disciples.#GuruPurnima2020

Today is the day for every individual to gratefully acknowledge the role of the Guru or teacher. No matter how lofty our accomplishments, we should never forget the contribution of our teachers, mentors and guides. #GuruPurnima2020

On this #GuruPurnima, I urge every individual to take out time and express gratitude to his or her teachers or Gurus for being the guiding lights in all stages of life and work towards reviving the glorious tradition of Guru-Shishya Parampara.
