By the legend King Bali was a great devotee of Vishnu but had grown powerful & began ruling all the worlds. To restore balance Lord Vishnu took the form of a dwarf Brahmin boy Vamana & asked for three steps of land during Bali yajna.
Bali agreed & Lord Vamana took a gigantic form covering the entire earth & sky in two steps. For the third step Bali offered his head realizing that it was Lord Vishnu himself. Pleased with his devotion Vishnu granted him the boon to rule Patal Lok & promised to guard his kingdom while sleeping.
