Worshipping Avatar and Village Gurus

In India, each day of the week has a special meaning. Thursday is Gurubar. On that day all Gurus are worshipped, Avatar Gurus and village Gurus. Village Gurus go to visit their disciples once a year. We had also a village Guru who used to come from a very far-off village. He was tall, thin, and we gave him dakshina, quite a few things – ghee, rice, this, that, plus money. Once a year the Guru would come from his village, which was very, very far, to bless us.
