As described in Srimad Bhagavatam, Sri Danvantri, the incarnation of Lord Vishnu, is revered as “the physician” of devas. At the conclusion of the great churning of the ocean by devas (gods) and asuras (demons), Sri Dhanvantri emerged from the ocean holding a vessel containing amruta, the nectar that conferred immortality on devas. Worshiping Sri Dhanvantari cures ailments and confers longevity. May we all pray to Sri Dhanvantari and receive His blessings for good health for the entire family.
