Onam, the Kerala festival that has been greatly privileged to be present in the immediate Divine Presence of the Avatar of the age, for the past more than three decades, has arrived in Prasanthi Nilayam once again. Tomorrow is Thiruvonam, t he day when Kerala awaits, as per legend, the arrival of erstwhile emperor Mahabali, who supposedly makes his annual goodwill visit. Devotees of Bhagawan look out for the beloved of all beloveds, Sai Vamana Himself, for Onam has always been the rarest and the most beautiful happening for both Prasanthi and Kerala in His direct physical presence since its inclusion in the Prasanthi festive calendar.
