Guru Purnima holds deep spiritual meaning across traditions. In Hinduism, Guru Purnima is linked to the great sage Vyasa, the author of the Mahabharata and compiler of the Vedas. His profound wisdom and literary contribution are remembered with devotion, and hence the day is also called Vyasa Purnima. Spiritual seekers spend the day in prayers, meditation, satsang (spiritual discourse), and by reaffirming their commitment to the teachings of their guru. Many fast on this day and visit ashrams or temples to seek blessings.
