What this day is
The thirteenth day of the waning moon of Kartik opens the Diwali festival week: the day of Dhanvantari, physician of the gods, and of wealth honored rightly.
How families observe it at home
Families buy a piece of metal (traditionally gold, silver, or new utensils), light the first two diyas of the season at the doorstep, and clean the home's entrance. It is also kept as a day to appreciate health as the first wealth.
