12th September 2008 Onam

 

 

 

 

 

 

This

day is the sacred day when the Lord as Vamana Avatar conferred

liberation on Emperor Bali. Bali was a great emperor. He loved his

subjects and looked after their welfare. Poverty was unknown in his

realm. He felt proud about his kingdom and his people, and thus

suffered from a slight sense of ego. Lord Vamana incarnated to

eradicate the undesirable quality of ego in Emperor Bali by effacing

even this pride and thereby redeem him. Before leaving for the nether

world, Bali gave a promise to his people, whom he loved dearly. He said

that he would visit them every year on the day of Onam and bless them.

 

- BABA
