Teachers’ Day is celebrated in India on Sept. 5 every year coinciding with the birth anniversary of the second Indian president Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan. Teachers Day is the day where we will pay our respect to our teachers, professors who are teaching us.

In Sanskrit we have sloka for our Teachers or Gurus:

गुरुर्ब्रह्मा गुरुर्विष्णुर्गुरुर्देवो महेश्वरः ।
गुरुरेव परं ब्रह्म तस्मै श्रीगुरवे नमः ॥१॥

Gurur-Brahmaa Gurur-Vissnnur-Gururdevo Maheshvarah |
Gurure[-I]va Param Brahma Tasmai Shrii-Gurave Namah ||1||

Meaning of the above Sloka:
The Guru is Brahma, the Guru is Vishnu, the Guru Deva is Maheswara (Shiva),
The Guru is Verily the Para-Brahman (Supreme Brahman); Salutations to that Guru.

Here we are giving you some best messages that you can use as your Whatsapp or Facebook status to pay tribute to your teachers:

When I was in doubt, you guided me.

The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires. You are my Teacher in Everything.

Happy teachers day to all who helped in inspiring me and helped me in learning the art of living well and were a part of my growth!!

Teacher: Where is your homework? ME: I lost it fighting with kid who said you weren’t the best teacher in school.

We will always be thankful to you for all the hard work and efforts you have put in, for educating us.

I was lucky to have a teacher as wonderful as you are. Wishing you a very Happy Teachers Day.

No matter what, you are the best teacher I ever had.
You helped me whenever I was in doubt.

A good teacher is like a candle,
It consumes itself to light the way for others.
