Kartik Purnima is not the Diwali of the mortals but of the gods. So, it’s called Deva-Deepawali. Here’s the story of the origin of this festival.
The sons of Tarakasura undertook severe penance to please Brahma. When Brahma appeared before them, they asked for immortality. But as Brahma could not grant such a boon, the trio instead asked for divine space cities that could be destroyed only by a single arrow. Thereafter, Maya built three cities made of iron, silver and gold for the brothers.

Slowly, they started causing havoc in the heavens. Finally, Shiva agreed to help the devas kill the asuras. With the Earth as his chariot, Mount Meru as the bow, Vasuki as the bowstring, and Vishnu as the arrow, Shiva waited for the three space cities to align in a straight line. At the opportune moment, he let loose his arrow and Tripura was destroyed in a flash. Overjoyed, the devas declared the day as Deva-Deepawali.

On Kartik Purnima, the birth of Matsya (an avatar of Vishnu), Vrinda (the tulsi plant) and Kartikeya (the warrior son of Shiva) are also honoured.
