Dhanvantari (Sanskrit: धन्वन्तरि, romanized: Dhanvantari, Dhanvamtari, lit. 'moving in a curve')[3] is the physician of the devas in Hinduism.[4][5] He is regarded as an avatar of Vishnu.[6] He is mentioned in the Puranas as the god of Ayurveda.[7]
During his incarnation on earth, he reigned as the King of Kashi, today locally referred to as Varanasi. Dhanvantari is also identified as the great-grandfather of Divodasa, a mythological King of Kashi in the Vishnu Purana.[8][9]
