Purnima of Kartik (October/November) · Pan-India
Kartik Purnima is one of the holiest full moons of the year. On this day, Shiva destroyed the three cities (Tripura) of the demon Tripurasura — hence called Tripuri Purnima or Tripurasuri Purnima. Skanda (Kartikeya) was born on this day. Bathing in sacred rivers on this day — especially the Pushkar lake in Rajasthan — is considered supremely meritorious. The Pushkar Camel Fair reaches its peak on this day.
