Dhanvantari Jayanti is observed to celebrate the birth anniversary of Lord Dhanvantari, who is considered the divine physician in Hinduism. This day is observed on the thirteenth day of the dark fortnight in the month of Ashwin (Ashwayuja), which typically falls in October or November of the Gregorian calendar.
Lord Dhanvantari is believed to be an incarnation of Lord Vishnu, and he is associated with Ayurveda, the ancient system of medicine in Hinduism. On Dhanvantari Jayanti, people express gratitude for the healing powers of Lord Dhanvantari and seek his blessings for good health and well-being. Devotees may engage in prayers, visit temples dedicated to Lord Dhanvantari, and participate in events that promote the knowledge and practice of Ayurveda.
While the exact date of Dhanvantari Jayanti may vary each year based on the Hindu calendar, it is generally an occasion for reverence and reflection on health and holistic well-being.
