Description

Guru is a Sanskrit term for a "mentor, guide, expert, or master" of certain knowledge or field. In pan-Indian traditions, a guru is more than a teacher: traditionally, the guru is a reverential figure to the disciple or student, with the guru serving as a "counselor, who helps mold values, shares experiential knowledge as much as literal knowledge, an exemplar in life, an inspirational source and who helps in the spiritual evolution of a student". Whatever language it is written in, Judith Simmer-Brown says that a tantric spiritual text is often codified in an obscure twilight language so that it cannot be understood by anyone without the verbal explanation of a qualified teacher, the guru. A guru is also one's spiritual guide, who helps one to discover the same potentialities that the guru has already realized.

ભારતીય સંસ્કૃતિમાં અને તેમાં પણ ખાસ કરીને હિંદુ ધર્મના લોકોમાં ગુરુનો મહિમા ખૂબ જ મહત્વ ધરાવે છે. શબ્દએ બે શબ્દો, 'ગુ'(અંન્ધકાર) અને 'રુ'(પ્રકાશ)ની યુતી છે. આમ ગુરુ એટલે અજ્ઞાનરૂપી અંધકારથી જ્ઞાનરૂપી પ્રકાશ તરફ લઈ જનારી શકિત. વ્યવહારીક દ્રષ્ટિએ શિ઼ક્ષક અથવા માર્ગદર્શકને પણ ગુરુ તરીકે સંબોધવામાં આવે છે. સામાન્યતઃ ગુરુ શબ્દ હિંન્દુ, બૌધ્ધ તથા શીખ ધર્મમાં પ્રચલિત છે તેમ છતા નૂતન કાળમા અન્ય ધર્મોમાં પણ ગુરુ શબ્દનો ઉપીયોગ થતો જણાય છે.
