I came across a reference that one of the Avatars of Vishnu had three manifestations!
And that is Vamana, the Dwarf Avatar to correct the errant Mahabali.
After being granted three steps by his feet, Vamana took Cosmic Form, measured by one foot, the earth:the second Heavens and the the third, for want of place, Mahabalis Head.
Vamana then pushed Mahabali down the earth.
Vamana also granted the boon to Mahabali to visit his subjects once a year and this day is celebrated as Onam Festival by people from Kerala.
Vamana is the child of Adhitya and Kashyapa and Vamana, an Avatar of Vishnu is listed as one of the twelve Adityas(all born of Adithi and Kasyapa) along with Vishnu, one of the Three Divinities of Hinduism.
And this is rare.
None of the Avatars of Vishnu is listed as an Aditya.
There is also some reference in later texts there were three Vamana Avatars!
I am reproducing the information below.
To the best of knowledge there is no authentic source for the three Vamana Avatars in the Eighteen Puranas, Upapuranas and the Ithihasas.
‘
But according to Rupa Goswami, an Acharya of the Gaudiya Vaishnava sect (which the popular organization ISKCON is a part of), this isn’t the first time that Vishnu has incarnated as a dwarf;hereis what he says in his Laghu-Bhagavatamrita:
Lord Vamana appeared three times in this kalpa. During the reign of the first (Svayambhuva) Manu, He visited the sacrifice performed by Vaskala, the king of the danavas. Then, in the reign of Vaivasvata Manu, and visited the sacrifice performed by Dhundhu. Then, in the seventh catur-yuga of that manvantara, He appeared as the son of Kasyapa and Aditi. In this way, to accept a donation, He appeared three times as Lord Trivikrama.
The third incarnation is the famous one I discussed above. But my question is, what is the story of Vishnu’s two earlier Vamana incarnations, involving Vashkala and Dhundhu? Are these described in Hindu scriptures?
Are there any commentaries on Rupa Goswami’s work that shed light on this?’
The Sananatana Dharma Inca Connection seems to be vaidated by new facts .
Incas civilization flourished during middle ages.
‘The Inca Empire (Quechua: Tawantinsuyu, lit. “The Four Regions also known as the Incan Empire and the Inka Empire, was the largest empire in pre-Columbian America, and possibly the largest empire in the world in the early 16th century.[4] The administrative, political and military center of the empire was located in Cusco in modern-day Peru. The Inca civilization arose from the highlands of Peru sometime in the early 13th century. Its was conquered by the Spanish in 1572..’
But the religious beliefs and culture seem to indicate a much earlier date.
‘Viracocha of South America tradition, is the great creator deity in the pre-Inca and Inca mythology in the Andes region of South America. Full name and some spelling alternatives are Wiracocha……
gold cup such as this may lie among the thousands of priceless items thought to make up the mythical lost Inca gold. This fabled treasure, part of an exorbitant ransom for the imprisoned Inca leader Atahualpa, was supposedly hidden in the 16th century when the Inca learned Atahualpa had already been put to death by Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro.

Like Indra Viracocha wields Thunderbolt and the chief Deity among the Incas, pre-Inca Pantheon.
According to Puranas Indra and Virochana both studied under Prajapathi.
While Indra advocated the worship of the Atman, The Self as the goal of Life, Virochana worshiped Sarira, the Human Body.
Hence he was not considered as a Deva in Sanatna Dharma, though his story is narrated in the Puranas and the Ramayana.
In the Valmiki Ramayan of India, Virochana (Sanskrit: विरोचन), was the first great Asura king with supernatural powers. (Asuras were power seeking deities). The Upanishads say that Virochana and Lord Indra together were taught at the feet of Prajapati. However, contrary to what he was taught, Virochana preached the Asuras to worship the ‘sharira’ (body) instead of the ‘atman’ (absolute consciousness)…
Scholars say today, the megaliths of South America, such as the Temple of ‘Kalasasaya’ (which houses an idol of Viracocha) in Bolivia, could not have been made without alien help.
Investigations in Assyrian mythology prove the existence of a tradition in Assyrian history of such a king called Berosus – a distortion of Virochana and Viracocha – as it has often been reiterated ‘b’ and ‘v’ are commutable. According to Swami Vivekananda “the western nations are the children of the great hero Virochana.” (Source: Talks with Vivekananda: Publisher- Advaita Ashram, Mayavati, Himalayas, January 1939.)’
Now it may be noted that King Virocha,an Asura,,Grandson of Hiranyakasipu,son of Prahlada and father of Mahablai seems to have moved to Latin America long back or conquered the land and spread Sanatana Dharma.
Shiva is credited with the founding of the Tamil Language and reported to have presided over the First Tamil Poets’ Conclave in Thenmadurai,which was in Lemuria.
For more on this line of thought please check my articles on Lemuria,Shiva.
Being devotees of Shiva and Asuras the Hiranyakasipu clan might have moved or conquered Latin America from the Dravida Desa(south).
Only this can account for the Tamil Practices and Sanatana Dharma being practiced by the Incas.
This fusion of Tamil and Sanatana Dharma is unique.
The artifacts found in Peru,Paraguay resemble Ancient Indian ornaments.
And there is this treasure of the Incas which is being hunted by the bounty hunters.
The term Asura means one who is powerful.
‘Asuras are described in Indian texts as powerful superhuman demigods or demons with good or bad qualities. The good Asuras are called Adityas and are led by Varuna, while the malevolent ones are called Danavas and are led by Vritra’
Asura is used as an adjective meaning “powerful” or “mighty”. In the Rigveda, two generous kings, as well as some priests, have been described as asuras. One hymn requests a son who is an asura. In nine hymns, Indra is described as asura. Five times, he is said to possess asurya, and once he is said to possess asuratva. Agni has total of 12 asura descriptions, Varuna has 10, Mitra has eight, and Rudra has six. Bhargava gives a count of the word usage for every Vedic deity.[citation needed] The Book 1 of Rig Veda describes Savit

The Asuras are assigned the South of Vidhya Mountains in Central India and were considered as Dravidas ,people from the South.
Ravana is considered to be from the South,so is Mahabali who is believed to come ever year to south to see his subjects and this event is celebrated as Onam in Kerala in South India.
Lord Rama’s ancestor was from the south.
Vaivaswatha Manu, ancestor of Rama meditated in Madagascar.
Please read my articles on this.
The Hiranyakasipu dynasty ruled much before Ramayana.
Narasimha Avatar is reported at Ahobilam in Andhra Pradesh where 12 Narasimhas are found in Ahobilam,near Kurnool/Nandyala,Andhra Pradesh.
After Hiranyakasipu ,his son Prahlada ruled ,followed by Virochana.
Prahlada was born near Multan, now in Pakistan.
His son Virochana seems to have either conquered or moved to South and had a som Mahabali.
Virochana seems to have adopted Dravidian Culture,though aligned to Sanatana Dharma differed in some issues,mainly in respect of worship of Shiva.
Shiva worship seems to have preceded Vedic period and it is in evidence in ancient Classic Tamil Literature.
Shiva worship had a different aspect in the south where He was considered the Prime Deity and the system of worship was unique as Advaita advocated by Shankaracharya later.
Shiva was worshiped as a Yogi and was considered as the First Siddha to be followed by Agastya,Bhogar and others.
Shiva seems to have been a human being who realized Brahman through Siddha practices.
During the Great Flood He seems to have moved towards the west of India,with His son Ganesha before reaching Arctic where the Vedas were compiled.
Vasishta seems to have accompanied him.
And Subrahmanya,called Karthikeya in the North and Murugan in the South moved towards Australia,establishing Sanatana Dharma.
This could be the reason for the overwhelming presence of Shiva and Murugan worship starting from Indonesia to Australia where the Australian tribes perform Shiva’s Trinetra Dance,Third Eye Dance even today.
However the Hiranyakasipu clan seem to have moved towards what is presently known as Latin America.
It may be noted that the Asuras in general worshiped Shiva from Hiranyakasipu to Ravana barring a few exceptions like Prahlada.
Shiva is credited with the founding of the Tamil Language and reported to have presided over the First Tamil Poets’ Conclave in Thenmadurai,which was in Lemuria.

The legend begins in the 16th century, when the great Inca Empire in western South America was giving way to European invaders. Atahualpa was an Inca king who, after warring with his half-brother, Huáscar, for control of the empire, was captured at his palace in Cajamarca in modern-day Peru by Spanish commander Francisco Pizarro.
Pizarro agreed to release Atahualpa in return for a roomful of gold, but the Spaniard later reneged on the deal. He had the Inca king put to death before the last and largest part of the ransom had been delivered. Instead, the story goes, the gold was buried in a secret mountain cave. And there the legend has remained, daring others to prove it.
The shadowy guide of those who have tried is Valverde, a Spaniard who some 50 years after Atahualpa’s death is said to have become rich after being led to the gold by his Indian bride’s family. When he died, he left written directions to its location, the so-called Derrotero de Valverde.
The gold trail went cold until the 1850s, when English botanist Richard Spruce traveled to Ecuador in search of the cinchona tree, the seeds of which were used to produce the antimalarial drug quinine. Spruce, when he finally returned to Britain, reported that he had uncovered Valverde’s guide and a related map, made by a man named Atanasio Guzman.
‘Golden Vases Full of Emeralds’
Treasure seeker Barth Blake followed up Spruce’s discovery in 1886. If his writings are to be believed, Blake was the last person to find the gold. In one letter he wrote: “There are thousands of gold and silver pieces of Inca and pre-Inca handicraft, the most beautiful goldsmith works you are not able to imagine.” He detailed life-size human figurines, birds and other animals, flowers, and cornstalks, as well as “the most incredible jewelry” and “golden vases full of emeralds.” But, Blake claimed, “I could not remove it alone, nor could thousands of men.”
Taking only what he could carry, Blake left and never returned. Sources suggest that en route to New York, where he planned to raise funds for an expedition to recover his prize, he disappeared overboard. Some say he was pushed deliberately. Many who have since attempted to retrace his steps into the treacherous Llanganates have also paid with their lives.’
It was believed that human beings were actually Viracocha’s second attempt at living creatures as he first created a race of giants from stone in the age of darkness. However, these giants proved unruly and it became necessary for Viracocha to punish them by sending a great flood. In the legend all these giants except two then returned to their original stone form and several could still be seen in much later times standing imposingly at sites such as Tiahuanaco (also known as Tiwanaku) and Pukará.
AS THE SUPREME PAN-ANDEAN CREATOR GOD, OMNIPRESENT VIRACOCHA WAS MOST OFTEN REFERRED TO BY THE INCA USING DESCRIPTIONS OF HIS VARIOUS FUNCTIONS.
Then Viracocha created men and women but this time he used clay. He also gave them such gifts as clothes, language, agriculture and the arts and then created all animals. Even more useful was Viracocha’s decision to create the sun, moon and stars and so bring light to the world. These heavenly bodies were created from islands in Lake Titicaca. Finished, and no doubt highly satisfied with his labours, Viracocha then set off to spread his civilizing knowledge around the world and for this he dressed as a beggar and assumed such names as Con Ticci Viracocha (also spelt Kon-Tiki), Atun-Viracocha and Contiti Viracocha Pachayachachic. He was assissted on his travels by two sons or brothers called Imaymana Viracocha and Tocapo Viracocha. The god was not always well received despite the knowledge he imparted, sometimes even suffering stones thrown at him. Ending up at Manta (in Ecuador), Viracocha then walked across the waters of the Pacific (in some versions he sails a raft) heading into the west but promising to return one day to the Inca and the site of his greatest works.’
The Vamana Avatar of Vishnu ,comparatively speaking,is less dicussed about and the temples for Vamana and Vishnu revealing himself as Trivikrama are limited.
Vamana’s famius temple from where He took His step to measure the world given to Him by Mahabali is in Kerala and there is a Temple for Trivikrama ,when Vishnu measured the world is in Kanchipuram,Tamil Nadu.
The incident narrated about Vamana Avatar is this.
King Mahabali ,Grandson of Prahlada and son of Virochana was found harassing the Dhanavas and Lord Vishnu took the Avatar as Vamana,Dwarf to discipline him.
Mahabali,because of his pious nature and the boons he had received,was difficult to vanquish by any done by warfare.
So,when Mahabali performed a Yagnya,Lord Vishnu,in the form of a Dwarf,Vamana took part in the Yagnya.
It is mandatory to gift Brahmins,the Realized ones,at the end of the Yagnya.
When Vamana,the Dwarf,asked for Three Feet of Land measured by his feet,Mahabali gave him the gift despite the warning by his Guru Sukracharya.
Vamana,it is interpreted,measured the Earth with his first step,the sky with the second and as there was nothing else was available to measure for the third step,Mahabali offered his head as the third step and Vamana pushed Mahabali to Patala Loka and gran.ted him the boon to visit his people once a year.
This visitation by Mahabali is celebrated as Onam Festival in Kerala every year even today.
Now,Indian texts have three meanings,at least.
One is the word to word textual meaning,
The second the philosophical interpretation and the third,
Historical/esoteric/tantric interpretation.
Seven Lokas explained as Land mass
In this incident word by word interpretation narrates the story and conveys that,however mighty one may be,if he is overwhelmed by power and resorts to unrighteous conduct he will be ruined.
If he has bee pious,Divine Grace shall prevent total ruin.
At the philosophical level,one who is steeped in Ahankaara ,the feeling of ‘I’ and attachments to power and riches would be blessed by Divine Grace to remember his Sattivic Swabhava or nature and realize the Reality.
I am providing the historical interpretation below.
Kerala was a part of Tamil kingdom in Lemuria and Lemurians were referred to as the Southerners,Dravida and were reported to be in Patala,down the earth.
The territories we call as south east Asia Australia were in the south.
One must remember that the landmass of the earth was different then.
Lemuria and MU territories encompassed these areas.
Ramayana and Sumerian texts state that Lemurians lived there.
Shiva,who predates Sanatana Dharma was in the south.
Shiva’s trishul marks are found as Nazca lines in Peru.
The Incas,Mayas were the descendants of the Tamils.
Moving to Patala Loka by Bali means that Bali moved further south or down to the areas we now know as SouthEast Asia,Asia-Pacific.
The Tolltechs,Incas,Mayas have a close link with Tamils/Keralites.
Spanish has affinity to Tamil.
‘Prahlada’s son was Virochana and his son was Bali (Mahabali).
When Bali was performing Yagna under supervision of his guru Sukracharya, Vishnu came as Vamana(dwarf or kid) and asked for donation of ‘three pada Bhoomi.’
This is wrongly interpreted as 3 foot land.
Infact it is 3 quarters of Land (pada here is similar to nakshatra pada in vedic astrology, where each nakshatra is divided into 4 padas [quarters]).
At that time, Bali was ruling over Asia, Europe and Africa. So he donated these 3 human inhabitated lands to Vamana and decided to leave.
Vamana was satisfied with Bali and gave him a boon of becoming next Indra, but until then he has to settle in Patala loka and perform yagnas….
Bali travelled towards east in a ship with his men in same path as described by Sugreeva in Ramayana and settled in South America.
On this path he discovered Sutala (Islands in South East Asia and Australia), Talatala (Antarctica) and Patala (South America).
His men created settlements even in Mahatala (North America)…
People residing in these places were known as ‘Talatalak’. This name corrupted to ‘Toltec’.
Toltecs still exist in Mexico of South America. Maya (founder of Mayan Calendar) was an engineer, who built three cities for Bali.
Maya built 3 cities for his king Bali and thus Bali was called as ‘tribhuvanak‘ (lord of 3 cities). This word later got corrupted to Tiahuanaco in Mexico.
The Nazca Lines in USA are supposed to be air plane landing markings made by Bali.
Patala was later inhabitated by people called as ‘Sarpa’, who went there on behest of Waman to keep
watch on Bali’s activities. Total seven colonies were new, therefore they were called as ‘Navatala’. Nava means new and Tala means colony. This word ‘Navatala’, in a corrupt form as ‘Nahuatl’, still exists in the South America. People residing in Mexico and around are known as ‘Nava’ and their language is called as ‘Nahuatl’.
So are the Quadrilateral Temple of Shiva in US, Hanuman and His son Makaradwaja’s temple In Mexico, Honduras,Marriage customs in central America follow Hindus,caste system of Sanatana dharma was present in central America , festivals like Makara Sankaranti were celebrated Tamil Style there.
I have articles on these issues.
Hinduism states that the earth is hollow and there are beings that live there and modern research proves this
I have written on this in my post Hollow Earth Hinduism.
Researches by Graham Hancock and Robert Bauval as 10,500 BC as the date when the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx were constructed in Egypt.
Vishnu as Vamana
‘Since I identify Rasatala with east coast of Africa, it follows that the civilization that created these structures could be belonging to the Asura Daitya tribe of Mahabali (his predecessors or successors).
Africa (including Egypt) also falls midway to Patala (identified with South America and Meso America) which was the final destination of Mahabali as per the Onam myth.
As per this myth Mahabali was sent to Rasatala and Patala by a Kasyapa sage named Vamana who famously measured the Earth in three strides (an allusion to the cartographic measurement of the surface of Earth marking its longitude and latitude).Kerala has yet another calender with New Year (named Vishu, Vaishakhi) celebrated on the day when sun is in the middle of constellation of Aries (skt. Mesha, mal. Medam) around April 15. This calender is the remnant of another ancient calender system when Vernal Equinox was in the middle of constellation of Aries (corresponding to 3100 BCE). Modern Western Astrology which which considers Aries as the first constellation, originated in 2150 BCE in Greece. India’s national calender, (current version:- Saka Era which started at 78 CE) too consider Aries as the first constellation of the year.}’
‘In Kerala, Onam is celebrated when the Moon is at the star Sravana during the month when Sun is in the constellation of Leo (skt. Simha, mal. Chingam). People of Kerala, Malayalis, celebrate New Year on the day when the sun enters the constellation of Leo following a calender named ‘Kolla Varsham’. The current version of this calender started in common era 825 CE (the year of death of the famous sage Sankaracharya / the date when the city Kollam is reopened after it was destroyed due to a natural disaster). However this calendar is the remnant of a much ancient calender established when Vernal Equinox was in the constellation of Leo, around 10,500 BCE to 8000 BCE.’
It may be mentioned that Onam festival is celebrated in Kerala ,India as the day of remembrance of Mahabali who was pushed back into Earth by Vamana , an Avatar of Vishnu.
This event might be an allegory just as the Naabhi of Vishnu(belly button) from which Brahma sprang forth to create the World is the explanation of an Astronomical event.
King Mahabali, Grand son of Prahalada, a Great Vishnu Devotee, was a powerful King and as He became arrogant he was destroyed by Lord Vishnu in His Avatar as Vamana.
King Mahabali composed the Hari Nama ala on Lord Vishnu.
Vamana Avatar of Vishnu
‘
According to the Brahma-Vaivarta Puranam, it was Lord Vishnu who positioned Bali in power to curb the pride of Indra.
The Bhagavata Purana reads “He (Vishnu) will take the kingdom away from Purandara (Lord Indra) and give it to Bali Maharaja.”
Composition of song: King Mahabali had composed a beautiful song ‘Hari Nama Mala Stotram” in honour of Lord Vishnu. Pandit Jasraj has a famous Bhajan by the name of ‘Om Namo Bhagwate Vasudevaya’.
