Guru Purnima 2022: Donate These Items

Maharshi Veda Vyas, the son of Parashara Rishi was born on the Purnima day of Ashadha month. He is believed to be the incarnation of Sri Maha Vishnu who descended down to earth to show us a way towards living a life with purpose and finally achieving liberation from the cycle of birth and death. His birthday has been celebrated as the day of the Guru, and therefore to mark this special day, Guru Purnima is celebrated every year.

This year in 2022, Guru Purnima will be observed on 13 July. This was the day, when Maharshi Veda Vyas compartmentalised the Vedas. Astrologically speaking, four special yogas of Hamsa, Shasha, Bhadra, and Ruchaka are being formed due to various planetary combinations. To top it all, Budhaditya yoga is also being formed due to Mercury. Any mantra initiation taken from the Guru on this day will help one to achieve spiritual progress and material prosperity in life.

If Diksha mantra (mantra initiated by the guru) is recited on especially solar and lunar eclipses, they enhance the power of the prayers and the effect of the mantra increases a thousand-fold or higher. Mantra Siddhi will also be attained quickly if recited on the days of eclipse. Similarly, Jaap initiation done by Guru on Poornima is highly auspicious for attaining mantra siddhi. (Mastery over the mantra) Ashadha masa is known to be very beneficial for any mantra Diksha (initiation) except for Lakshmi mantras which must not be started this month.
