attained. The month of Karthik is witnesses the glory of Lord by performance of several kinds of special pujas and eye-filling decorations. Lakhs of persons of every breed visit and offer prayers to this august divinity, deeming him as Prajapati-the Creator of worlds and also father of both Suras and Asuras, besides creating the Vedas-the repositories of all knowledge. A visit emancipates, and a prayer yields instant bliss.
