Nevada: Hindu statesman Rajan Zed has sent greetings to one billion Hindus worldwide on the occasion of Guru Purnima. In a statement in Nevada (USA) today, Zed, who is President of Universal Society of Hinduism, urged Hindus to pay due respects and express gratitude on this auspicious day to the guru/gurus to honor this sacred relationship. Rajan Zed further says that guru is a highly
revered spiritual teacher/master/preceptor in Hinduism who helps remove the ignorance
of the seeker and who leads one from darkness to light. The guru-sishya (teacher-disciple)
relationship lies at the heart of traditional Hinduism. Guru is often allied with
the divine. Even Arjuna formally asked Lord Krishna to be his guru in ancient
Hindu scripture Bhagavad-Gita (Song of the Lord). This day is also held sacred
to the memory of celebrated rishi Vyasa, arranger of Vedas, and the compiler of
Puranas and Mahabharata. Hinduism is oldest and third largest religion of the
world and moksha (liberation) is its ultimate goal. |
