Lord Dhanvantari and Mother Lakshmi are worshiped on the day of Dhanteras and shopping and charity are also considered auspicious on this day. This day is also known as Dhan Trayodashi and Dhanvantari Jayanti. According to mythological beliefs, on this day Dhanvantari Dev, the father of Ayurvedic medicine, appeared from the churning of the ocean and at the time of appearing he had a pot full of nectar in his hand. This is why utensils are bought on this day. According to Hindu religious beliefs, Goddess Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, appeared during the churning of the ocean on the day of Dhanteras, hence it is believed that bringing gold and silver home on this day pleases Goddess Lakshmi, bringing happiness, peace and prosperity to the house. It brings prosperity and good fortune to the home. Buying gold keeps evil powers and negative energy away from the house. Many families follow their hundreds of years old tradition by buying gold and silver and worshiping Lakshmi Devi, the goddess of divinity and wealth.

Dhanteras is the festival of wishing for wealth. From this point of view it is a festival of economy. Proper and qualitative research of economy through money. On this day, lamps of hope are decorated in homes and markets, currency is exchanged. It is believed that the things purchased on this day increase manifold.

In Indian culture, Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha have been the objectives of life. There have always been efforts to achieve these here. On Dhanteras, along with money, religion has also been given importance and the need to establish coordination between the two has also been expressed, but whenever efforts for coordination have weakened, then there is an imbalance and anarchy in the society. An atmosphere has been created. It is said in the scriptures that money is meaningful only when a person’s life is full of virtues. But in recent years, the mindset and standards of our society regarding prosperity have changed. Today prosperity has come to mean only economic prosperity. Human values and good thoughts have been marginalized in the society and earning money by any means and wishing for wealth is becoming the biggest goal. Why did this happen?
