As we mentioned above, the festival is celebrated by Hindus, Buddhists, and Jains, hence each one of them has different reasons to celebrate the Guru Purnima. Some popular legends are mentioned below:

Hindu Legend

As per Hindu texts, on the day of Guru Purnima, Lord Shiva became the first guru or Adi guru. It is also believed that on this day, Lord Shiva sat in front of Seven Sages called Saptarishis and became their Adi guru to teach them about the truth of life. Later, these Saptrishis spread the knowledge they gained from the lord to the world.

As per another saying, it is believed that on this day, the great sage and the author of the epic- Mahabharata, Maharishi Vedvyas was born. Not just that, he also completed writing the Brahma Sutra on the day of Guru Purnima only, that is why the festival is also called Vyas Purnima.

Buddhist Legend

As per Buddhist texts, after attaining enlightenment, Lord Buddha joined his five followers and taught them everything he learned through being enlightened. It was a full-moon day of Ashadha month when Buddha gave the first sermon and shared his learning with his disciples who also became enlightened.

Jain Legend

As per the Jain traditions, Lord Mahavir Swami, the 24th Tirthankara of Jains, took Indrabhuti Gautam (Gautam Swami) as his first disciple and became his guru on the day of Guru Purnima. This festival is celebrated as Treenok Guha Purnima among the Jains.

Guru Purnima 2023 Significance & Celebration

Guru Purnima is a beautiful festival that is wholly dedicated to gurus and to expressing thankfulness to those who lead us to enlightenment from the path of darkness. 

“Guru” itself is made from two Sanskrit words “gu” means darkness or ignorance and “ru” means removal of darkness, thus Guru is someone who removes all the darkness from our life. In the early times, gurus were given higher places than god. 

The festival has a lot of significance in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. It teaches us to respect our gurus and to always be thankful to them no matter how big you become.

Even in the modern era, Guru Pooja is held by Hindus of India and Nepal, which is devoted to all gurus who enlightened their disciples. Whether Hindus, Buddhists, or Jains, this festival is celebrated with great enthusiasm by the people of their religions and it spreads peace and coexistence in society.
