Former President Dr. Sarvpalli Radhakrishnan’s birth anniversary falls on 5 September. In his memory, Teachers’ Day is celebrated every year on 5 September. Once some of his students and friends told him that, they want to celebrate his birthday. He then said, “I would feel proud if my birthday is celebrated as Teacher’s Day instead of celebrating my birthday separately.” Sarvpalli Radhakrishnan was a pioneer of Indian culture, an eminent educationist and a great philosopher. Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was nominated for the Nobel Prize 27 times. In 1954, he was awarded the Bharat Ratna.

Teacher’s day is celebrated with great enthusiasm all over the country. On this day, students in schools organize many colorful programs for teachers. Students give different types of gifts to their teacher to show respect. At the national level, on the day of the teacher’s day, teachers are awarded the National Teacher Award for their work. This award is given every year by the President of the country.

In India, to honor every relationship and to show gratitude towards it, a festival is there. With the same trend, the festival of Guru Purnima is celebrated with great enthusiasm throughout the country.  On the full moon of the Ashadh Shukla, Guru Poornima is celebrated. Guru is considered as Lord in Indian culture and he is worshiped like Lord Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh.

On Guru Purnima worship of the Guru is done. In fact, worship of the master is also important because, by his grace, one can achieve anything. The glory of the master is unimaginable. Without a master, knowledge can’t be attained. The master has been elevated above even God.

It is believed that on this day, Adiguru, the composer of the Mahabharata, and the four Vedas’ lecturers, Maharshi Ved Vyas, was born. Guru Purnima is the birth anniversary of Maharishi Ved Vyas. He was a great scholar of Sanskrit.
