Kept through the day.
Times for Columbus, OH in EDT, UTC−4, rounded to the minute, computed by Kalava's engine for this town's own sunrise, sunset and moonrise. How
The full moon for whoever taught you. Vyas was born on it, and the first thing anyone was ever taught was taught on it — so the day belongs to the teacher, not the student.

How Guru Purnima is kept
Katha
The first class
Vyas divided the one Veda into four so that it could be carried by more than one memory, and wrote down what would have been lost.
Puja vidhi
6 steps
The method at the day's own hours, every mantra with its meaning.
Samagri
4 things to set out
Every item pictured, a list to tick and send.
