What is Dhanvantari Homam?
Dhanvantari Homam is a Vedic fire offering dedicated to Lord Dhanvantari, who is described in the Puranas as emerging from the churning of the ocean holding the pot of amrit. He is revered as the deity of Ayurveda and healing.
The homam includes Ganesh puja, sankalp, kalash sthapana, Dhanvantari avahan and offerings into the fire with the Dhanvantari mantra, often together with Vishnu and Mrityunjaya mantras as per the vidhi.
Families often perform it for an elder, before or after a surgery, or on Dhanteras, which is also observed as Dhanvantari Jayanti. It is a prayer and is meant to complement, never replace, the advice of doctors.
Significance
Lord Dhanvantari is honoured as the source of the healing arts. Invoking him through agni is traditionally seen as a prayer for strength, recovery and well-being.
Dhanteras, two days before Diwali, is observed by many as Dhanvantari Jayanti, and practitioners of Ayurveda also worship him on this day.
अग्निमीळे पुरोहितं यज्ञस्य देवमृत्विजम्।
होतारं रत्नधातमम्॥
