Would like to know the Karthigai Deepam festival celebration for Smarthas this year on which date whether 12th or 13th. Based on Karthigai star or on Pournami is it celebrated?
In calendars it is mentioned 12 th Annaamalai deepam/ Sarvaalaya Deepam but In Pudhukkottai panchangam Vaikanasa Sarvaalaya deepam on 13th. What it means Vaikaanasa?
 
Vaikanasa Deepam is annually observed on the Kartika Purnima day in Tamil Calendar. Karthigai Pournami or full moon day in

Tamil Karthigai Masam is highly auspicious in South India. Vaikanasa is an important sect in Hinduism and follows Vishnu and

His various avatars. Teachings of Sage Vaikhanasa are followed by this sect.
