Guru Poornima is celebrated by Hindus, Jains and Buddhists all over the world, on a full moon day in the month of Ashadha, according to the Hindu calendar, to commemorate our Gurus.
In the word โ€Guruโ€, "Guโ€ means darkness and "Ruโ€ means the eradication of darkness. Thus "Guru" means the one who eliminates the darkness of ignorance and illuminates our lives with knowledge.
On this day,
