Teacher's Day



When does rest of the world celebrate Teacher's Day?
Do they celebrate it at all.

  1. Yes, we do celebrate it. In Nepal we celebrate it on Guru Purnima.

    I made a post on that day. If you have not read it then you may read it here:

    All the days - mother's day, father's day, Dasehara, Deewali, bhai dhooj, and so many other festivals - we celebrate according to the Hindu calender (panchang)

    Happy Teacher's day.

  2. 'They' don't really 'celebrate' it in the spirit of a celebration.

    Sporadically a few good people who get a few good teachers do 'celebrate'. Its a joyful thing for them. Otherwise I'm skeptical.


    School--yes we did celebrate it for 2-3 teachers (celebrate = wished them from our heart).

    College--I have known a few cases of a few good men.

    The world's getting cold didi! Hope you had a better experience at school. Cheers to all you teachers :)
