Dhanteras, also called Dhantrayodashi, is celebrated two days before Diwali and marks the beginning of the five-day festival. Devotees worship Goddess Lakshmi for wealth, Lord Kuber for prosperity, and Lord Dhanvantari for health.
Homes and workplaces are cleaned, decorated, and illuminated with lamps.
Performing the Dhanteras puja during the right muhurat is believed to bring prosperity and protection from negativity.
