Devotees pay homage to their Guru or Spiritual Master especially on this day. Thankfully, there have been many honest, loving, radiant, Godly beings that have graced this planet with their enlightened compassion.
"The teachings of all Saints are essentially the same. They speak of the "Kingdom of Heaven" which is within. They show the path and impart instructions to attain it. They do not claim to teach something new or different from what other Saints have taught. Tulsi Sahab declared that he was giving the same teachings as those of Kabir Sahab, Nanak Sahab, Dadu Sahab and other Saints. Tulsi Sahab, for the first time, used the expression "Sant Mat" or "the teachings of Saints" to stress the basic unity of the teachings of all Saints." (From the entry for Sant Tulsi Sahib in, White Paper on the Religion of Sants and RadhaSoami Faith, published by Dayal Bagh in Agra)
"Another common misconception is that prophets, saints and mystics search for 'new' truth. Rather, what they do is to simply remove the layers of dirt -- of accumulated misinterpretations -- that have corrupted the truth. Then the living teacher will bring forth the very same truth in a new light. The original truth must repeatedly be presented to suit the current age." (Swami Santsevi Ji Maharaj, Harmony Of All Religions)
