The [[Brahmanda Purana]] describes the origin of the physician deity:<ref>{{Cite web |last=www.wisdomlib.org |date=2019-06-21 |title=The origin of Dhanvantari [Chapter 67] |url=https://www.wisdomlib.org/hinduism/book/the-brahmanda-purana/d/doc362925.html |access-date=2022-08-02 |website=www.wisdomlib.org |language=en}}</ref> Let the origin of Dhanvantari be heard, O Brāhmaṇas. He was born formerly when the ocean was being churned, for the sake of nectar. At the outset, he was born before the Kalaśa (pot). He was encircled by a halo of glory all round. On seeing him having accomplished his task suddenly, Viṣṇu who was standing by said—“You are born of water”. Hence, he is remembered as Abja (water-born). Abja said to Viṣṇu—“O lord, I am your son. Allot me my share and place in the world, O excellent god.” On being told thus, the lord said after review in the factual position, “The division of the Yajña has already been made by the sons of Diti as well as the Suras. The due performance of Homas etc. has been laid down in the Vedas by the great sages. It is not possible to get Homa performed unto you at any time. As you are born subsequent to Vedas O god, you have no Mantra (assignable to you). O lord, in your second incarnation you will earn reputation in the world. Then you will attain the super-natural powers like Aṇimā (minuteness) and others. O lord, you will attain Deva-hood with this selfsame body. Brāhmaṇas (and other twice-born ones) shall worship you with Caturmantras (i.e. Mantras from the four Vedas), ghee offerings and Gavyas (materials of worship obtained from milk, milk products). You will once again reproduce the Āyurveda (the Science of Medicine). These incidents and events are inevitable and have already been visualised by the lotus-born lord (Brahmā) earlier. Undoubtedly you will be born in the second Dvāpara Yuga”. Therefore, after granting the boon, Viṣṇu disappeared.|title=[[Brahmanda Purana]]|source=Chapter 67 === Incarnation インカネーション ===

このように言われた主は、事実を確認した上で、「供養（ヤジュニャ、Yajña）を分け与えることは、ディティ（Diti）の子やスーラ（Suras）によって既になされている。ホーマ（Homas）等<ref>護摩（ごま、梵: homa、ホーマ）とは、インド系宗教において行われる火を用いる儀式。（[https://ejje.weblio.jp/content/homa homa]、webio（最終閲覧日：22-11-01））</ref>の正しい行い方などは、偉大な聖者によってヴェーダの中で定められている。いつでも自分にホーマを施してもらえるわけではない。そなたは、ヴェーダの後に生まれたので、マントラ（自分の割り当て）を持っていない。そなたは２度目の転生で、世間で名声を得るであろう。そうすれば、そなたはアニマー（Aṇimā、微細さ）などの超自然的な力を手に入れることができる。そなたはこの同じ身体でデーヴァの位を得るだろう。ブラフマーナ（と他の二回転生者）は、４つのVedasからのマントラ（Caturmantras）、ギー、ミルク（Gavyas、乳製品から得られる崇拝の材料）でそなたを供養するものとする。そなたはもう一度、アーユルヴェーダ（医学の科学）を再製するだろう。これらの出来事は必然であり、すでに先に蓮華座の主（ブラフマー）によって可視化されている。間違いなく、そなたは第二のドヴァーパラ・ユガ（Dvāpara Yuga）に生まれるだろう。」そのため、恩恵を与えた後、ヴィシュヌは姿を消しました。Yuga）に生まれるだろう。」そのため、恩恵を与えた後、ヴィシュヌは姿を消した。（『Brahmanda Purana』、Chapter 67）
During the second Dvapara Yuga, the King of Kashi, Dirghatapas, propitiated the physician deity for the birth of a son. The deity agreed to incarnate himself as the desired child as a boon. Dhanavantri proved to be a great king, and is described as the "dispeller of all ailments". He is described to have been exempt from infirmities and recognised as a "master of universal knowledge".<ref name=":0" /> The sage [[Bharadvaja]] educated him regarding the therapeutic practice of Ayurveda, and further caused him to study medicine. The king created a classification of his knowledge of medicine into eight fields and disseminated it to a number of diverse disciples.<ref>{{Cite web |last=www.wisdomlib.org |date=2019-06-21 |title=The origin of Dhanvantari [Chapter 67] |url=https://www.wisdomlib.org/hinduism/book/the-brahmanda-purana/d/doc362925.html |access-date=2022-08-02 |website=www.wisdomlib.org |language=en}}</ref>
