Guru poornimaa and Vedavyaasa Pooja

Today is a very auspicious day in the Hindu Calender. It is known as Guru poornimaa. Devotees offer Poojaa to Sage Veda Vyaasa, who is considered an avatar of Shree Mahaa Vishnu.

Sage Veda Vyaasaa is considered to be an incarnation of Shree Mahaa Vishnu Himself. He wrote many scriptures including The Mahaa Bhaarathaa and Shreemad Bhagavathaa. He narrates Lord Shree Krishna's Devine Actions in Shreemad Bhagavathaa many years before they took place.
