Dates are calculated for New Delhi. In other cities, and especially outside India, the tithi changes at a different local time, so a festival can fall a day earlier or later. Month names follow the Purnimanta calendar used in North India, where a month ends on Purnima. How we calculate
About Onam· महत्व
King Mahabali ruled Kerala so justly that the gods grew anxious. Vishnu came as Vamana and asked for three paces of land, covering earth and heaven in two and placing the third on Mahabali's head, sending him to the netherworld, but granting him a yearly visit to his people. Onam is that homecoming.
Celebrations run for ten days from Atham to Thiruvonam, with a fresh pookalam each day, new clothes (onakkodi), the Onasadya feast on a banana leaf, vallam kali boat races and Pulikali dances.
How Onam is observed· विधि
- Make a pookalam at the entrance each day from Atham.
- Wear new clothes and share the Onasadya on a banana leaf.
