Vaikunta Ekadashi - Margali Masam
It is the festival during December every year called Margali Masam, famously known as month of festivals. Margali is a Tamil month. Margali month comes after Karthikai and before Thai which is the harvest season.
Most of the seasons in Tamil Nadu, are not as enchanting as it is from October to the end of December every year. It starts right from the Puratasi Masam which is auspicious for lord venkateswara, then starts the Karthigai auspicious for lord ayyapa, then starts the Margali masam where in almost each and every Hindu family is pro-active, singing bajans along the streets in the cool morning climate, temple opens up early in the morning, people are busy putting kolam in front of their houses, there are a plenty of stage shows and Carnitic music and Kuchepudi and Bharthanatyam concerts in almost every auditorium in Chennai.
