Teacher’s Day: Not merely minds, educators mould lives as well. In India, where a Guru (mentor) is more respected than gods, Teacher’s Day is not a ritualistic celebration in the true sense. It is a sacred event where knowledge, wisdom, and tradition meet. With the revival of Vedic sciences and astrology in contemporary times, Teacher’s Day 2023 this year assumes greater significance.
Let’s learn about the date, history, significance, and how Astroeshop asks you to pay tribute to your spiritual guides and mentors on this Teacher’s Day.
When is Teacher’s Day 2023 Celebrated in India?
In India, Teacher’s Day is celebrated on 5th September every year, which is the birthday of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, a past President of India, a scholar, philosopher, and a devoted teacher.
In 2023, Teacher’s Day will be observed on Tuesday, 5th September, and will be commemorated at schools, colleges, and homes around the country with grateful acts towards teachers, spiritual leaders, and guides.
Why is Teacher’s Day Celebrated?
Legacy of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan
The history of this unique day goes back to the year 1962, when Dr. Radhakrishnan became the President of India. When his students were adamant about celebrating his birthday, he modestly asked them to forgo the celebration of his birth and celebrate the day by paying honour to all the teachers. And from then onwards, 5th September came to be associated with the celebration of the role played by the teachers in constructing society.
The Deeper Indian Perception: Guru Devo Bhava
In Indian life, a teacher or Guru is a godly guide — the remover of darkness (ignorance) and giver of light (wisdom). The Guru-Shishya Parampara of the Vedic tradition shows an eternal bond of respect, allegiance, and transformation.
From spiritual mentors to school teachers of today, the transmission of knowledge is revered — not just as a vocation but as a divine responsibility.
How Is Teacher’s Day Celebrated in India?
Celebrations at Schools and Colleges
Throughout India, Teacher’s Day is celebrated by:
- Students organising cultural events
- Awards and gratitude functions
- Students assuming the teacher role within class
- Presenting flowers, greeting cards, or momentos of appreciation
It’s a light-hearted yet intensely emotional day at schools and colleges where the guru-shishya bond is celebrated with joy.
Spiritual Celebrations with Gurus
In addition to formal schooling, Indians also honour spiritual gurus, astrology teachers, and Vedic tutors on this day. Devotees go to ashrams, spiritual centres, or offer pujas and yajnas to revere the gurus that guide them through karmic conundrums and into the secrets of their life’s purpose.
Teacher’s Day and Vedic Astrology – A Deeper Connection
Astrology and Guru Tattva
Jupiter or Brihaspati or Guru is the guru planet in Vedic astrology, which symbolises wisdom, education, and divine knowledge. It is the planet of expansion, spiritual schooling, and higher studies. The festival of teachers and gurus on Teacher’s Day also resonates with the power of Jupiter and hence invokes divine blessings and wisdom.
Birth Chart and Guru’s Role
A human’s 9th and 5th houses in Kundli point towards the role of mentors, gurus, and higher wisdom. Astroeshop experts believe that honouring your teachers on Teacher’s Day also brings balance in these areas of your life — whether it’s professional growth, making informed choices, or spiritual growth.
