People across the country are celebrating Guru Purnima today(July 24). On this day, students pay respect to their gurus and it's celebrated on the birth anniversary of Veda Vyasa. Guru Purnima, also known as Vyasa Purnima, falls in the month of Ashadh.

The full moon day of the Hindu month of 'Ashad' is a day that is very sacred and especially so, as it is a day to worship the Great Indian sage Vyasa. He was an Indian saint who is credited with editing all the four Indian Vedas and writing the 18 Hindu Puranas as well as authoring the Holy Shrimad Bhagavata and the story of Mahabharata.

The Guru of Gurus Dattatreya is said to have been taught by Sage Vyasa. This day is thus considered to be a very knowledge-oriented day for all Hindus.

On this devout day of Guru Purnima, where people attach immense religious significance to this festival here in India, we recount here the best ways to celebrate this revered day with whole-hearted spirituality. 

On the occasion of Guru Purnima this year, here are some message that you can send to your teachers, mentors and guides to show your respect and love for their contribution in your well being:

1. You were a light for me in the dark, You were an inspiration and an aspiration, Support me always, I will succeed in all ways, Happy Guru Purnima!

2. Whenever I wanted inspiration, You were there to guide and be, Thanks Guru for being, Such a pillar of support for me, Happy Guru Purnima!

3. The grace of a Guru is like an ocean. If one comes with a cup, he will only get a cupful. It's no use complaining about the niggardliness of the ocean. The bigger the vessel, the more one will be able to carry. It's entirely up to him. Happy Guru Purnima!

4. Some people come in life and make you a better being, All these people are Guru’s who give you wings, Happy Guru Purnima!

5. It is time to pay respect to the Guru, for without the knowledge imparted by him, the mind would have become shallow, as Guru Nanak said, "Through shallow intellect, the mind becomes shallow, and one eats the fly, along with the sweets."

Here are 5 quotes from eminent Gurus:

1. Through shallow intellect, the mind becomes shallow, and one eats the fly, along with the sweets: Guru Nanak

2. There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting: Gautam Buddha

3. Always be thankful for what you have, many people have nothing: Gautam Buddha

4. Reshape yourself through the power of your will; it is the only friend of self, and it is the only foe of the self: Maharshi Veda Vyasa

5. There is nothing so disobedient as an undisciplined mind, and there is nothing so obedient as a disciplined mind: Buddha
