Lord Vishnu took to the form of a hunter and displayed a golden dagger to the boy. He was instantly

bow and arrow in a responsible manner. Thus Vettakkorumakan took leave of his parents from Kailasa and
went to the land of Parasurama, Kerala. He crossed several mountains and forests and rivers and reached
North Kerala where he first entered the Balussery Fort thus making the place significant. is seen confined to
