Dhanvantari Deva
Dhanvantri is an Ayurvedic god, and he is worshipped widely all over India as a god of medicine. He has emerged from the Ocean with Amirtha (Divine immortal drink of the Devas) on his hand. His birthday is celebrated as Dhanteras festival all over India, especially by north Indians. This festival will be celebrated before deepavali, and mainly by north Indian jewellery shops, who would celebrate it in a grand manner similar to that of Akshaya Tritiya.
Dhanvantri is a divine god and he is considered as an avatar of Lord Vishnu. He is having four hands, and he is believed to be the reliever of various diseases of his devotees. Generally, in temples, Dhanvantri homam will be performed by the devotees for attaining good health for them. Several thousands of years before, he is said to have incarnated with the same name ‘DHANVANTRI’ and occupied the court of King Vikramaditya as his minister. He is said to have cured various diseases of his sincere devotees, and he is very much praised in the field of Ayurveda Medicine.
Dhanvantri, being a great god of Ayurveda, is very kind to his devotees, towards curing their diseases. His worship is there in India for several thousands of years. For running a proper life, we need a good health, and by worshipping him with pure bhakti, we can get a proper health and we are able to do our duties in a proper manner.
Without a proper health, we can’t survive in our life, and we can’t properly work and earn money anywhere in this world. Hence HEALTH is WEALTH. If we have proper health, we can earn wealth. This can be done by praying sincerely to Lord Dhanvantri.
