🌟 Significance & Spiritual Importance

Karthika Purnima, also hailed as Tripurari Purnima or Deva Deepavali, is the pinnacle of the holy Karthika Masam. Lord Shiva destroyed the three demonic cities of Tripura Asuras on this day. Devotees take early morning river baths (Nadi Snana), perform Satyanarayana Swamy Vratham, and light 365 cotton wicks soaked in pure cow ghee (representing all 365 days of the year) on raw rice or halved raw amla fruits (Usiri Deepam) in Shiva temples at twilight.

Dissolution of accumulated sins, harmony of Shiva and Vishnu (Hari-Hara), and attainment of Shiva Sayujya.

📜 Historical Background & Puranic Origins

Lord Shiva destroyed the three iron, silver, and gold flying cities of Tarakaksha, Kamalaksha, and Vidyunmali with a single cosmic arrow.
