The full Moon day in the month of Kartik is known as Kartik Purnima. This day is considered as one of the most auspicious days in India. On this day, people bathe in holy rivers. After taking bath, devotees worship Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Vishnu. Few people observe Satyanarayana Vrat on this day and perform Satyanarayana Katha. Apart from this, making donation and performing Rudrabhishek is considered auspicious on this day. Any auspicious ceremony performed on this day is considered to be equivalent to 10 Yajnas.
This sacred day is also known as Tripuri Purnima and Dev Diwali (Diwali of the Gods). The name 'Tripuri Purnima' has been derived from Tripurari. According to Puranas, Tripurari is the name given to Lord Shiva as he defeated Tripurasura. On this day, Lord Shiva incarnated himself as Tripurakanta and killed Tripurasura. Tripurasura defeated all Gods and conquered the entire world. Apart from this, he created 3 cities in space and called them 'Tripura'. Lord Shiva came to the rescue of Gods and killed Tripurasura. Other than this, he demolished Tripura with one arrow and pronounced the day to be celebrated as festival of illuminations. This day is also considered as Dev Diwali, Diwali of Gods. Tripuri Purnima is celebrated just the day after Maha Shivratri. As this day is celebrated to commemorate the defeat of Tripurasura by Tripurari, Lord Shiva is worshipped. Lamps are lit at temples for the entire night, as it is the day of illumination. People light 360 or 720 wicks at the place of worship in hope of getting salvation after death. 720 wicks symbolize the 360 days and nights of the years. During this time, all religious and spiritual places become alive with the lights of lamps, especially the Ghats of Varanasi.!! Hari Om Tat Sat ~ Har Har Mahadev ! 🙏🏻
