**The Author's Experience in Kerala**

We did not leave the house with such a thought, but we were in Kilak Kerala on the occasion of PAN and one of his friends was also in Kilak Kerala on the occasion of PAN. One of his meanings was to celebrate the state of Kerala, so when he went there, he used to say that what is written is that we did not go with the intention that not go with the intention that. When we go to Kerala, we will see the Onam festival there, but suddenly it happened that when the writer reached Kerala, it was the occasion of Onam and everywhere was decorated with carpets of colorful flowers.

Goes and Rangoli is made in the stomach of rice, and the sound of Mridang and Shehnai keeps thinking in the air. Our last stop in Kerala was Kumar's and the huge Brahmanwad used to hear a unique and cathartic sound of birds from the breaking morning when the white waterfall turned. When a pain on the water gets properly attached and its shadow goes burning in the water, then it seems that if it goes burning now then it seems to mean that.

**The Beauty of Kerala**

That if it is in our eyes and did not see if it is in our eyes and did not see if it is in our eyes and did not see then S saw, is this a different kind of thing in the nature of Kerala? The relationship was a different heartbeat, to feel which our mind has to become rich, even if for a few moments. But if we want to see the beauty of the state of Kerala, then we will have to become a sage for it, children.

**The Name Kerala**

The name Kerala has a deep connection which means coconut and Alam, which means region i.e. Kerala, that is why it got its name here. Thank you, thank you, thank you, children.
