Guru 1 -Veda Vyasa

Rating: 5.0


My salutations to the great Guru
Maharshi Veda Vyasa - the dynamic Teacher,
May His name be glorious forever,
May His work be celebrated forever!

Sage Vyasa of profound realisation,
Scintillating work of the compilation of the Vedas,
Stupendous work of the codification of the Brahma Sutras,
Systematisation of the eighteen Puranas!

The magnum opus -Srimad Bhagavatam,
The great epic Mahabharata,
The Bhagavad Geeta,
The celestial song unparalleled!

My salutations to the great Guru
Maharshi Veda Vyasa - the dynamic Teacher,
May His name be glorious forever,
May His work be celebrated forever!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Guru Poornima is celebrated in India, as Veda Vyasa day. This day -a full moon day - is a celebration and a tribute to the great Sage Veda Vyasa, whose contribution to Indian spirituality is incomparable.
The students of dance, music and other fine arts pay respects to their respective teachers and celebrate the sacred bond of the teacher and the taught. The heritage has been practised in India, from time immemorial, as 'Guru Sishya Parampara'.

Veda Vyasa is celebrated as the greatest Guru in India. Apart from all the invaluable contributions you have mentioned in the poem, I consider Shrimad Bhagawat Gita as his most important work, though it forms part of the epic, Mahabharata.

The words 'colossal, stupendous and Magnanimous' used in the poem to express the greatness of Guru Veda Vyasa and the volume of his extra-ordinary work underline how much he has contributed to the Hindu scriptures and the Sanskrit literature. Your knowledge about our ancient literary traditions is remarkable. Thanks.
