          yes, they do.



          Sri Krishna in Gita:




          देवद्विजगुरुप्राज्ञपूजनं शौचमार्जवम्।



          ब्रह्मचर्यमहिंसा च शारीरं तप उच्यते।।17.14।।




          So He mentions Gurupuja as one essential part of tapasya.



          Sweta-ashwatara-Upanishad says(6/23)




          Guru and deity should be respected equally.




          Gurugita says:




          Dhyanamulam gurormurth (Sri Sri Guru-Mahimamrita,
          ie The meditation of image of Guru is the highest meditation.




          Mundamalatantra says




          Gurupujaam vina devi ishtapujam karoti yah/mantrasya tasya tejamshi vairabhah harate swayam.




          Rudrayamaltantra says




          Gurupujaam vina naatha kotipunyam vrith vyayam.




          All of our scriptures make Gurupuja essential before every worship for initiated people.
