ONAM GREETINGS & THANKS FOR BDAY WISHES


Today mallus across the continent are celebrating ONAM........... traditional festival of Kerala celebrated in honor of MAVELI the demon king who ruled Kerala long ago............. as the story goes............ he was a noble king.......... gods in heaven got scared of the fact that he was powerful and plotted ways to bring him down............ lord MAHAVISHNU disguised as vamana -the bhramin boy reached the king and asked for 3 foot land.......... maveli without knowin the trap agreed............. vamana covered earth n the entire universe in his first two steps................ maveli offered his head for keepin vamana's third foot land................ n thus he was banished to the underworld.................. vamana agreed to maveli's plea that he may be allowed to visit his kingdom once in a year................. n thus we mallus celebrate Onam.............. usually onam is celebrated for 10 days..... the most important being THIRUVONAM............. it is a time for families to spent time together............ to pluck flowers to adorn pookalam.......... n also the ladies in the family dance to the tune of thiruvathira................. after which the entire family sits in for the tasty sadhya(lunch)................... ONAM in every true sense is the traditional festival of kerala..............
Onam is not just another festival but, a feeling............. This realization came in very late after seeing the heavy rush on the streets yesterday, people flocking to buy vegetables, flowers and last minute shopping. Though rain dampened some of the Onam spirit, people were still enthusiastic about this once in a year festival.
