king by name Mahabali, hosted a yaha to get the power much more than others,
with the help of Sukirachari. To let his ego down, Vishnu appeared there
disgused and asked him for "dhana" for land of three feet. Due to his donating
nature, the king accepted for it, unknowing that the disgused man is Vishnu.
The vishnu taking the oppourtunity kept gaint leep, with first leg in earth and
second leg in sky. and asked the king, where to keep the third step. on
realising the presence of Vishnu, Mahabali felt ashamed and replie that there
is no place with him other than his head. Vishnu kept his feet on the head. Due

and blessed him.
