Guest guest Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 Matru Puja: students of Harippad Amrita Vidyalayam performing puja to their parents in conjunction with the Guru Purnima celebrations. It was the tradition in gurukulas [ancient system of education] to impart such ideas as "Matru devo bhava" [Regard Mother as God], "Pitru devo bhava" [Regard Father as God] and "Acarya devo bhava" [Regard Teacher as God] to students. This fostered respect for the elders to whom they could turn for guidance during a crisis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
