Onam is an annual
festival, of Kerala.A major annual event for Keralites, Onam is the
official festival of Kerla state and includes
a spectrum of cultural events. According to Hindu tradition, Onam commemorates
King Mahabali and Vamana.
Onam festival is celebrated in remembrance of the good governance under the rule of King Mahabali, a mythical king who ruled over the Kerala. The legend holds that jealous of Mahabali's popularity and his power, the devtas and gods conspired to end his reign. They sent Vamana on the earth in the form of a dwarf Brahmin who trampled Mahabali to patala lok .
Vamanan asked king Mahabali for three feet of land as his
wish from the generous Mahabali. Since denying gifts to Brahmin is considered
as a wrong practice, king Mahabali
agreed to fulfill Vamana’s wish. In the first two feet Vamana measured the
entire universe, leaving nowhere to place his third foot. Mahabali offered his
own head to place his third feet making the wish complete. However, witnessing
King Mahabali’s generosity, Loard Vishnu granted the king's sole wish to visit
his mother land and people once every year. This homecoming of king Mahabali is
celebrated as Onam in Kerala
The date of Onam celebration is completely based on the Panchangam, and falls on the 22nd nakshatra Thiruvonam in the month Chingam of Malayalam calendar, which in English calendar falls between the mont of August–September
