ALL
About Onam-
Onam is one of the greatest festivals of
Kerala. It is the festival, which the keralites celebrates
united without the difference of caste and religion.
Onam is related with King Mahabali who
was ruling kerala in a time. He was an Asura king but was
very nice and trueful. During his ruling time it is said
that people don't even lock their house in the night
because , there was no thieves, no corruption, no betrayal.
And all people lived united, without the difference of
rich and poor. All where facing a good time. Like wise the
king was so good that he will give anything to anyone. At
that time the Hindu lord Mahavishnu decided to test King
Mahabali. He came to earth as vamana a poor dwarf, and
went straight to King Mahabali. He told the King that he
has nothing and he want three feet of land to live. The
king hearing this laughed and told Vamana to take three
feet of land from where ever he wishes. Suddenly Vamana
began to grow and he covered the whole earth by one foot
and covered the sky with other foot. And asked Mahabali
where is the space for the third foot. By seeing all
these, the king understood that Vamana is not an ordinary
person, and Vamana has come to test him so the king
without hesitating showed his head to keep the third foot.
Vamana kept his third foot on the King's head and the King
was pushed down under the earth (pathala). The king after
going to Pathala asked Vamana his true identity, Suddenly
Vamana vanished and Lord Mahavishnu stood before Mahabali.
Mahabali was overjoyed by seeing this. The lord told
Mahabali that he wanted to test Mahabali and he has won in
that. The lord also asked Mahabali to ask any boon for
himself. Mahabali told the lord that, he loved his people
very much so he wanted permission to visit Kerala once in
a year. And the lord gave permission for that. It is that
day ie. the day Mahabali visits kerala is celebrated as
Onam.
