It’s all about welcoming back the legendary King Mahabali. Described in early Hindu texts as a kind and generous king, Mahabali possessed a special nectar that granted him immortality. After many wars, the unbeatable Bali had conquered heaven and earth. Devas got worried and asked God Maha Vishnu for help. In response, Maha Vishnu transformed into a dwarf named Vamana and tricked Mahabali into granting him three paces of land. Vamana then expanded to an enormous size, covering heaven and earth in just two steps. When asked where to place the third step, Mahabali bravely offered his own head. Consequently, Mahabali was sent to Patala Loka. However, Maha Vishnu granted him a boon, allowing him to return to his homeland once a year to visit his kingdom.
History about him are found in Buddhist and Jain texts as well. He is known as Chao Krung Bhali in Thailand’s version of Hinduism.
Onam lasts for ten days, and features flower decorations called “pookalam,” traditional dances, and games. The festival’s highlight is the Onasadya feast, which includes up to 30 dishes that showcase Kerala’s cuisine. People of all religions celebrate Onam in Kerala, making it a time for families to come together
