Gurú
is Brahma; Gurú is Vishnu; Gurú is Shiva; Gurú is Brahman, the
Absolute Flesh; Reverenciado is Their Name.
The Festival of Gurú
Poornima (the Full Moon of the Gurú ) is one of the most
important celebrations of the Hindu Culture. It is the day in which one
surrenders cultured special to the Acharya (Masterful; "those that
practice what they preach"), that through their Infinite Compassion
and the Supreme Grace has distributed the Knowledge of the Absolute one
(Brahma Vidya) to all finder of if same, like way to obtain the union
with God.
This day of Poornima
(Full Moon) in the month of Ashadha (Julio-Agosto) is considered Sacred.
In order to
include/understand the importance of this day truely favorable, is due
first to understand the meaning of "Guru '" (Masterful
Spiritual). The syllable "Gu" means: "the dark"; and
"ru": "one that it dissipates, that destroys". Soon
the Gurú word means: "One that dissipates or destroys the
dark"..
Gurú (Masterful
Spiritual) is That one that dissipates or destroys the dark of the
ignorance blessing to its disciples (Bhakta) with the true knowledge,
the Knowledge of God.
The Sagradas Hindu
Scriptures agrees in the indispensable thing of Spiritual Gui'a, since
the being (jiva) cannot obtain the elucidation by itself, without the
guide of a Gurú.
Express God in the
Scriptures that nobody can obtain it to HIM without surrendering first a
a Gurú, declaring that IT does not give to his knowledge and love
directly, but that does through a Gurú.
The human being is very
difficult, still journeying the footpath of the spiritual way, to love
the abstract thing. Therefore the Scriptures advise to venerate to which
they take it until God; loving its physical presence as Divine
manifestation of HIM in human form. Thus, when God assumes a human form,
IT settles down itself like the Gurú. The Gurú is showed God, becoming
in the Light, Inspiration and Example of its disciples. The Gurú and
God are One, because the Omnipotente and Its Means of Manifestation
cannot be different. The Gurú incarnates the aspects Nirguna (God
without attributes) and Saguna (God with attributes) of the Supreme
Being (guna: qualities of the nature). Two are the conditions that must
fulfill a Guru ': 1° To be expert in all Scriptures. 2. To have
obtained the union with God. The first condition only can be reunited by
which it has fulfilled the second condition, since to which it has
obtained the accomplishment in God grants the perfect knowledge
automatically to him. This way the words of the Gurú distribute
knowledge (Jñana) and dissipate the ignorance causing the gradual
separation of the material world and the permanent union with God; by
means of waking up of the conscience, the transformation and elevation
same beyond the physicist of the spiritual finder; whose exclusive work
is to include/understand its true identity with God.
The Bhagavadgita also
sets the standards about that are a genuine Gurú, saying that he is
That one that distributes true free knowledge of speculation and it
never alleges that It is God. He knows that God is Supreme and the men
are subordinated HIM He knows the Truth and lives in her, is free of
greed, lujuria and rage. It is example of love, wisdom, peace, automatic
control, austerity, mercy, tolerance and fort faith in God. He must come
through one long and continuous succession of Acharya (Guru Parampara).
At the moment of
initiation (Deeksha), the Gurú absorbs the sins last and karmas of its
disciples and reveals the true spiritual knowledge to them. The disciple
develops strong love by the Gurú that releases of the slavery of birth
and death to it. There are eight types of Guru ':
1: Bodha Guru ': the
Shastra teaches and encourages to the student to act in agreement with
its orders.
2: Guru Prohibition ':
it distributes the internal meaning of the Prohibition, establishes to
the disciple in the spiritual truths and
it guides his mind
towards God.
3: Nishidha Gurú:`imparte
the knowledge of the rituals and duties and teaches how it is possible
to be assured
well-being now and for
always.
4: Kamya Guru ': it
guides the student so that it carries out commendable acts that assure
the happiness to him in both
worlds.
5: Vachaka Gurú
distributes the knowledge of yoga and prepares to the disciple for the
spiritual life.
6: Suchaka Guru ': it
teaches how the senses by means of different types from disciplines are
controlled.
7: Karana Guru ': it
reveals the unit of the Jivi (individual) with the Atma.
8: Vihita Guru ': it
clarifies all the doubts, it purifies the mind and it shows how the
autorrealización can be obtained.
Most important it is
the Karana Gurú, that through many lessons and practices helps the
individual to progress of the human conscience to the Divine Conscience.
Single the Divinity can act so like a teacher. Only through the
purification of the mind the Supreme Being can be made.
In India he considers
himself to the Moon (Chandra) as Deity runs of the mind and to the Sun
of the intellect.
In the Hindu Calendar
four days of Full Moon exist that are more sacred than the others; the
Full Moon
that one appears in the
months of Vaisaka, Ashada, Sravana and Magha.
When the moon is full (poornima)
is illuminated by the rays that receive from the sun; the mind is, that
night, in a while propitious to obtain by means of the culture of the
internal vision through the light of the Love, the Wisdom and Spiritual
Illumination.
In this day of
celebration the disciples make orations or plegarias of offering (Pooja)
to the Gurú, praying with the following Plegaria : "Oh Gurú,
You are Father, Mother, Brother, Friend, Knowledge and Prosperity. You
are for me Everything and God of all the Gods ".
This day of
gratefulness extends to all the Gurú, but in special to the
Fundamental Gurú , first of the Acharya: Sri Vyasa Prohibition ,
Vyasa Maharishi (Great Rishi<Sabio >) to that they are offered
special bids up (= pooja: puya)/(offerings). Sri Vyasa revealed that the
principle of Brahma interpenetrates and maintains reunited to the
multiplicity within the One Sri Vyasa was the highest authority than
analyzed and classified the Prohibition (Sagradas Scriptures), for whose
interpretation the Brahmasutra wrote, which were explained as well
through the writing of the eighteen Puranas. At the end of all this, Sri
Vyasa wrote the Harivamsha, the History of Mr. Krishna. The History of
the Mahabharata had been written by him just a short time before, being
the ocean of deep knowledge, to that also the flame the Fifth
Prohibition. The Bhagavadgita, which is honest anywhere in the world as
book of wisdom and jewel of rectitud (Dharma), comprises of the
Mahabarata. This way It left a rich legacy of nonsingle sapiencia to his
country but to the entire world.
It is known that Sri
Vyasa, this considered Hindu wise person like the descended same
Gentleman like man, was born a day of Full Moon, finished codifying the
Sacred texts a day of Full Moon and also completed the writing of the
Purana in day of Full Moon. It is in its honor and so that the humanity
can offer the gratitude to him that is deserved, that restored during
this day of Full Moon the day of the Gurú.
Its vast work was to
codify the Prohibition (El Saber) in four parts (1131 Sakhas <
reviewed text > ):
- Rig Prohibition (21
Sakhas) corresponds to Sacred Hymns to the Gods,
- Yajur Prohibition
(101 Sakhas) corresponds to Sacred Rituals (movements) to the
Gods,
- Sama Prohibition (1000
Shakas) corresponds to Melodías Sagradas to the Gods,
- Atharva

the Gods.
Also Sutras or
Aforismos wrote the Brahma Sutra (555 that integrates the messages of
the Upanishad (analysis of the Prohibition of philosophical character)
which they relate to Jiva (the being), Universo and Brahman (God).
