Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh's Gayatri Shakha Hosts Guru Vandana 2026 Honoring Educators in Ardsley, NY

Gayatri Shakha, a New York chapter of Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh (HSS), USA, hosted its annual Guru Vandana (Teacher Appreciation Program) on June 13, 2026, in Ardsley, New York, recognizing the invaluable contributions of educators from various school districts across Westchester County.
The event was organized in collaboration with the Hindu Education Foundation (HEF), an educational initiative of HSS that works with educators and students to enrich understanding of Hindu culture and traditions in America. More than 100 guests attended the program, including teachers, students, parents, community members, and local dignitaries.
Rooted in the Hindu tradition of honoring teachers, Guru Vandana celebrates the role of the Guru as one who imparts knowledge, nurtures learning, and dispels ignorance. Hindu culture places great emphasis on expressing gratitude and respect toward teachers for their profound contributions to individuals and society.
Twenty-three teachers from various Westchester County school districts, including Ardsley, Eastchester, and Irvington, attended the event after being personally invited by students who participate in HSS activities in the Ardsley area.
A special highlight of the program was the presence of New York State Assemblymenber MaryJane Shimsky, Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins, and Ardsley Board of Education Trustee Dr. Vikas Agrawal. The dignitaries were felicitated by the students and expressed their appreciation to HSS for the opportunity to participate in honoring teachers through this traditional Hindu celebration.
The program commenced with the traditional Hindu ceremony of lighting the lamp, symbolizing the triumph of knowledge over ignorance, followed by the recitation of the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance. Students then presented a 10-minute skit exploring common questions about Hinduism, including its diverse forms of worship, philosophical traditions, and respect for all beliefs. The presentation provided teachers with a deeper understanding of Hinduism and offered insight into the cultural backgrounds of their students.
The centerpiece of the celebration was the Guru Puja, during which students expressed their gratitude by honoring teachers with a traditional tilak and seeking their blessings.
Guest speaker Atharva Gokhale of HSS spoke about the unique bond between teachers and students in India and the significance of the Guru in Hindu culture. Drawing from his own experiences, he shared stories of teachers who influenced and shaped his life, helping guide him toward a successful future.
The event concluded with a dinner featuring traditional Indian cuisine, providing an opportunity for teachers, families, and community members to connect and celebrate together. Through Guru Vandana, HSS and HEF continue their commitment to fostering respect for educators and strengthening the bonds among schools, families, and the broader community.
Hindu Dharma teaches that a teacher creates, sustains, and imparts knowledge while dispelling ignorance. For this reason, teachers are honored with deep humility and heartfelt gratitude. For time immemorial, Hindus have emphasized the importance of the teacher, or Guru, and have recognized their contributions at every opportunity. As imparters of knowledge and removers of ignorance, teachers hold a place of great esteem in Hindu culture. Through Guru Vandana (Salutations to Teachers), we express our gratitude to educators for their immense service to society.
