Guru Pournami Celebrations 2014

Guru Pournami marks one of the greatest moments in the life of humanity. This is a day that is reminiscent of Adi Yogi opening up and offering the possibility that a human being can evolve beyond all limitations set by his physical nature, if willing to strive.

This first full moon day after the solstice is a time when this planet and all life upon it are most receptive to the cosmic energy and possibilities. The next six months till the winter solstice is the best time to strive for evolving and experiencing the divine possibility that is innate in a human being.

We invite you to the Isha Yoga Center on July 12th 2014, to experience this day of offering and gratitude to the Guru.

Significance of Guru Pournami

The full moon day in the month of Ashadha (July-August) is known as Guru Purnima. This sacred day marks the very first transmission of the yogic sciences from Shiva – the Adiyogi or First Yogi – to the Saptarishis, the seven celebrated sages. This momentous occasion took place on the banks of the lake Kantisarovar, which stands a few kilometers above the Kedarnath Temple in the Himalayas. Thus, the Adiyogi became the Adi Guru or the First Guru on this day. The Saptarishis carried this knowing offered by Adiyogi throughout the world. Even today, every spiritual process on the planet draws from the spine of knowing created by Adiyogi.
