Lord Dhanvantari

Among the Hindu pantheon deities, Dhanvantri is worshipped as the Divine Physician, an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. While churning the Cosmic Ocean of Milk (Samudra Manthan), Lord Dhanvantari emerged with a jug containing the nectar (elixir) to keep the Devas immortal and rejuvenate the celestial beings. He has a dark complexion and is wearing yellow clothes, adorned with ornaments and flower garlands, and is depicted with four hands. Dhanvantri is considered the creator of the Ayurvedic medicine system.
