Mother’s blessings bring happiness and security in life.
Father
Father is the biggest teacher in life. From the father, a person learns the value of facing the world, struggle, discipline, duty and hard work. On the day of Guru Purnima, touch the feet of your father and take his blessings. Apply tilak to them and honor them by garlanding them.
teacher who teaches
Guru gives knowledge to man. This is the charity which makes a person knowledgeable and capable of earning a living, therefore, on the day of Guru Purnima, meet school or college teachers or seek their blessings over phone. Respecting Guru increases intelligence and success.

Man connects with God through a spiritual guru. Spiritual gurus lead man on the path of peace. On this day, go to the ashram of the guru who gave you initiation and chant the mantra given by him. Worship his paduka or feet.
Maharishi Vedvyas
Since Guru Purnima is known as Vyas Purnima, hence worship Maharishi Vedvyas ji also on this day. Also, make sure to worship Lord Dattatreya, Lord Vishnu and Shiva.
