Dhanteras is celebrated as the first day of the Diwali Festival, in most parts of north India. The festival is also known as “Dhantrayodashi” or “Dhanvantari Triodasi”. The Dhan in Dhanteras means wealth. On this day, the “Owl” form of Goddess Laxmi is worshiped to provide prosperity and well being. It holds a special significance for the business community as purchases of precious metals are done on this day.

Here is an interesting story on why this day is celebrated. It was said that the sixteen year old son of King Hima was doomed to die of a snake-bite on the fourth day of his marriage. So, on the fourth day of his marriage, his young wife did not allow him to sleep. She laid out gold ornaments and lots of silver coins in a big heap at the entrance of her husband’s room and lighted many lamps all over the place. She went on telling stories and singing songs. When Yama, the god of Death, arrived there in the form of a snake, his eyes got blinded by the reflection of those bright lights and could not enter the King’s chamber. So he climbed on top of the heap of ornaments and coins and sat there the whole night listening to the melodious songs. In the morning he quietly went away. Thus the young wife saved her husband from the clutches of death. Since then this day of Dhanteras came to be known as the day of “Yamadeepdaan” and lamps are kept burning throughout the night in reference to the worship to Yama, the god of Death.

According to another popular legend, when the Gods and demons churned the ocean for ‘Amrita’ or nectar, Dhanvantari ,the physician of the Gods and an incarnation of Vishnu emerged carrying a jar of the elixir on the day of Dhanteras.

Sugreeva, the Kishkintha prince in exile, came to know about Rama and Lakshmana through his lookouts, wandering in the Risyamukha forest. He felt queasy, and after discussing with his assistants, who were also hiding along with him, asked his emissary Hanuman to go and check on the two. He initially thought that his brother Vaali might have sent spies, to finish him off in the forest itself.

Lord Hanuman, on seeing the princes, was drawn towards them with an unknown but powerful force, and after coning to know of their problems and identities, reverted to his original form, went on his knees and explained to them his own position. He told Lord Rama and Lakshmana about who he was and what brought him to Risyamukha Mountain. He then explained to the princes about the problems of Sugreeva, and what really happened between the twin brothers.

Lord Hanuman made several references to the similarities between the problems faced by Rama and Lakshmana, and to that of Sugreeva. He told them, about what Sugreeva could do as help, and why it was right to help him. He also assured them of Sugreeva’s capable support, and took them to the exiled prince of Kishkintha.

Sugreeva was surprised to find Hanuman bringing in the two warriors, with royalty and misery written on their faces. After receiving the princes with due respect, Sugreeva, helped by Hanuman’s scholarly approach, made a pact with Lord Rama. Lord Rama would help Sugreeva in defeating his twin brother Vaali and become the king of Kishkintha. In return, Sugreeva would mobilize his great army of Vanaras and search and find Sita.
