Samudra Manthan and Diwali
In Hindu religion, every festival has its own special religious and mythological significance. Diwali, which symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, also has a deep connection with the churning of the ocean. It is mentioned in the Puranas that in ancient times, gods and demons together churned the ocean, so that they could get the nectar pot and get the boon of immortality. Many divine gems and wonderful objects appeared from this churning. The most important was the appearance of Dhanvantari Dev, who had the nectar pot in his hand. Dhanvantari Dev is considered the god of Ayurveda and health, hence his appearance became a symbol of health and prosperity.
Relationship between Diwali and Samudra Manthan
This mythological event is directly related to Dhanteras, which falls two days before Diwali and is called Dhan Trayodashi. It is believed that on this day Dhanvantari Dev appeared with a golden nectar pot. For this reason, the tradition of buying gold, silver and new utensils started on this day. This is not just a religious custom, but is considered a means to bring the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi to the house, increase wealth and prosperity and maintain peace and happiness in the family.
