Shree Vishnu, Mahaabali and Onam

Billions of years back, His Almighty Shree Mahaa Vishnu incarnated in His Vaamana Form as a young Brahmin boy, grew to his Trivikramaa Form, and blessed King Mahaabali. Mahaabali was the grandson of Prahlaadha, the greatest devotee of Shree Mahaa Vishnu. 

It is belived that King Mahaabali visits his Kindom and his citizens on this day every year. This day is celebrated as Onam in Kerala and by Malayalee people all around the globe. 

Onam greetings to all Malayaalee readers of my post and to my Malayalee friends.
