Sri #VAMANA Jayanti (07.9.22)
Sri VaAmAna-AvatHara cHintana🙏

Bhadrapada Sukla Dwadasi is reckoned as Dadhi Vamana Jayanti. Sri Vamana avatara took place on Dwadasi day in D constellation of #SRavana - Lord #Vishnu is star Deity of Sravana & presiding Deity for Dwadasi thithi.+
Apart from in #DasaAvathra we come across all the three names of VaAmana (#Thrivikrama, #Vamana and #Upendra) in #ChaturvimshatiKesavaadi #vYuHaruupas’of Lord #Vishnu with interchange in holding of Ayudhas; +
He was called #Vamana because he was dwarf in form at the beginning. While suppressing the pride & vanity of King Bali, He was called #Thrivikrama when He grew to a gigantic size & conquered the 3 worlds ( Earth, Upper worlds & Nether worlds) with just three paces of his foot.++
