Snanam Jagaranam Dipam Tulasi Vana Palanamkartike
Ye Prakurvanti Te Nara Visnu Murtayah
(HARI BHAKTI VILASA 16/90 from PADMA PURANA Lord Krsna speaks to Satyabhama)
Any person who performs bathing in the month of Karttika, remaining awake, offering lamps, giving charity or planting and transplanting Tulasi, he achieves the same form as Lord Sri Visnu.
Asvinasya Tu Masasya Ya Sukla Ekadasi Bhavet
Kartikasya Vrata Aniha Tasyam Kuryad Atandritah
(HARI BHAKTI VILASA 16/168 from PADMA PURANA conversation between Lord Krsna
and Satyabhama)
Summary
Your father became reborn as Satrajit, and your husband became Akrura. My dear Satyabhama, y°u are that very same Gunavati.
One should take a fasting vow for the month of Karttika without any laziness on the Ekadasi which falls in the light part of the month of Asvina (September-October).
