Kathmandu. Dhanvantari Jayanti and Health Day, which is celebrated every year on the day of Kartik Krishna Trayodashi, is being celebrated across the country by organizing various programs today. To commemorate the birth of Lord Dhanvantari, the originator of Ayurveda, the oldest Vedic medical system based on herbs found in the forest, various programs are being held across the country today to celebrate Dhanvantari Jayanti and Health Day.
As the Dhanvantari Jayanti should be celebrated on the day of Trayodashi Tithi in the morning, it is going to be celebrated today, according to the Nepal Panchang Adjudicatory Development Committee.
It is discussed in the Vedic Sanatan Hindu scriptures that Lord Dhanvantari took the Amrit Kalash on the day of Kartik Krishna Trayodashi to cure the disease of the sick person while churning the sea with the leader of the serpent and the asura.
Ayurveda doctors take this day as an opportunity to initiate good deeds. After the establishment of Ayurveda Campus in Naradevi, Kathmandu, Dhanvantari Jayanti was duly celebrated in Nepal. At that time, the Ayurveda Campus established under the name of the Government Ayurveda College was operating as a teaching hospital of the Ayurveda Hospital.
