The significance of Kartik — Lord Vishnu (Damodar)
Kartik is the month of Vishnu, worshipped here as Damodar, and it holds more festivals than any other — Dhanteras, Diwali, Govardhan, Bhai Dooj, Chhath, Tulsi Vivah and Kartik Purnima. It is a month of light: a lamp floated or lit daily (deep-daan) is held to be of the highest merit, and the pre-dawn Kartik snan in a river is the month's defining discipline.
Rituals of Kartik
- Kartik snan — a pre-dawn holy dip through the month
- Daily deep-daan (lighting or floating lamps)
- Tulsi puja every evening and Tulsi Vivah on Ekadashi
- Damodar-ashtakam recitation
- Fasting on the two Ekadashis (Devutthana and Kartik)
- Dev Deepawali on Kartik Purnima at the ghats

Kartik 2075 — Frequently Asked Questions
When does Kartik Maas 2075 start?
In North India (Purnimanta calendar) Kartik runs from Thursday, 24 October 2075 to Friday, 22 November 2075. In Amanta-calendar regions it runs Saturday, 9 November 2075 to Saturday, 7 December 2075.
Why do Kartik dates differ in North and South India?
Because the two regions follow different lunar calendars. In the Purnimanta calendar (North India) a month ends on the Purnima, so it starts about 15 days earlier than in Amanta. In the Amanta calendar (Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Goa, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu) the month runs new-moon to new-moon.
