Dhanvantari
(Sanskrit: धन्वन्तरि) is an Avatar of Vishnu from the
Hindu tradition. He appears in the Vedas and Puranas as the physician of the
gods (devas), and the god of Ayurvedic medicine. It is common practice in
Hinduism for worshipers to pray to Dhanvantari seeking his blessings for sound
health for themselves and/or others. (source - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhanvantari)
