It is believed that performing Purushottama Masa Vrata is equal to performing 1000 Kartika Vratas.. so an intelligent man who practices devotional service towards the Supreme Lord in this Purushottama month will enjoy a blissful life while in this world and after leaving his body he will return back to Godhead.” – (Lord Sri Krishna in Padma Purana)
