"The full moon day of the 'Ashadha' month is celebrated as 'Guru Purnima'. This year we celebrate this auspicious occasion on Friday, the 31st of July. Through ages, many great personalities have highlighted the importance of a Guru, but this couplet by Sant Kabir pays the ultimate tribute to a Guru. One should always bow to the Guru before Govind (God) as it is the Guru who has led him towards God. In this issue we have tried to compile various articles glorifying the importance of a Guru along with the virtues needed by a disciple to help him win over the grace of his Guru. Hope these articles prove helpful to our readers in the progress of their spiritual endeavor. - Dimple Mehta."
