Happy Ayurveda Day!

Today we honour Lord Dhanwantari, the father of Ayurvedic Medicine and incarnation of Lord Vishnu.

Also known as Dhanteras, this celebration is followed within Hindu tradition in India and all around the world. It is written that one who remembers the name of Dhanvantari can be released from all disease.” Lord Dhanvantari is worshipped throughout India as the God of Medicine.

Goddess MahaLakshmi was also born on the same day hence the day is celebrated for both.

He rose from the churning of the milk ocean, bringing the nectar of immortality, the elixir of life to establish the tradition of Ayurveda to the world.

May Ayurveda, the Science of Life, continue to bless the world with its ancient wisdom and universal knowledge. It is a true honour to learn and live by Ayurvedic principles.

Dhanwantari Mantra

“Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaaya Dhanvantaraye

Amrita-kalasha Hastaaya

Sarva-amaya Vinashaaya

Trailokya Naathaya Shrimaha Vishnave Namaha”

We pray to Lord Dhanvantari. He holds the Kalasha (pot) of the nectar of immortality. Lord Dhanvantari removes all fears and diseases. He is the well wisher and preserver of the three worlds. Dhanvantari is a form of Lord Vishnu, empowered to heal. We bow down to you.

Wishing you a very happy and healthy Dhanteras
