Creative wishes you a prosperous Dhanteras.

We would like to take this opportunity to wish you a very happy Dhanteras. Although every one realises that on this day people ought to buy precious metals, few know the story.

One brings in gold into his house on this day observing that the practice saved the marriage and also the life of a newly wed prince doomed to die four days after his marriage. It is believed that Yamraj came to his quarters as a snake but couldnt get past the threshold of his house because of the blinding array of diya’s and gold ornaments and show pieces strategically placed by his wife, who did not let him sleep that night and endeavoured to sing songs and tell him stories not allowing him to sleep.

Yamraj simply waited the whole night on his threshold the whole night waiting for a chance to strike, which he never got. Yamraj had to leave in the morning without the soul of the young prince.
