What is Dhanvantari Homam?
Dhanvantari Homam is a fire ritual to Lord Dhanvantari — the form of Vishnu who emerged from the churning of the ocean holding the pot of amrita and is honoured as the god of Ayurveda — performed for recovery from illness, before surgery and for the health of the family.
Dhanvantari is worshipped as Adi Vaidya, the first physician. The homam offers ahutis with the Dhanvantari mantra and herbs, praying for the healing of a specific person named in the sankalpa.
