"Guru Purnima" is the day when
devotees offer their respect, devotion, and love to their
Guru. Pramukh Swami Maharaj is the beloved Guru of millions,
who through his incessant vicharan has lived his life purely
for the well-being of others. All yuvaks and yuvatis in attendance
felt privileged to honor Swamishri on this auspicious day.
Saints described how the true
Guru is the closest to God on earth, as God resides in every
pore of his body. They also explained how true "Guru Pujan"
is not restricted to physical reverence for the Guru, but
by abiding by his every desire.
After Swamishri blessed the
assembly, all delegates performed aarti of Swamishri and offered
him a mantra pushpanjali in traditional observance of "Guru
Purnima."
