Onam

Onam is the biggest and most widely celebrated festival in Kerala. It is a harvest festival, celebrated to thank the Lord for the wonderful yield of crop. Onam is also the state festival of Kerala. This festival is celebrated in the Malayalam month of Chingam (August - September). .

Origin

Onam is associated with the story of Mahabali – the grandson of King Prahlad, who was one of the greatest devotees of God. Mahabali was a great king, who had conquered the three worlds, and ruled them justly and well. There was peace and prosperity all over, and people were happy during his reign. However, Mahabali soon grew proud of himself. Lord Vishnu decided to cut down his pride, and took birth on the earth in the form Vaman, a dwarf.
