Guest guest Posted October 21, 2002 Report Share Posted October 21, 2002 Mother Ganga Ganga is not only a river. She is truly a Mother. She rushes through the Himalayas as the giver of life, carrying purity and bliss in Her waters. Ganga is not only water. She is nectar -- the nectar of life, the nectar of liberation. She is a source of inspiration to all who lay eyes on her ceaseless, boundless, rushing current. She irrigates not only our farms, but our hearts, minds and souls. She is the Mother Goddess - giving freely to all with no discrimination or hesitation. Her waters purify all who bathe in them, all who drink from them. In fact, She is the remover of contamination. They have done scientific studies and have found that no bacteria or virus can grow in Her waters. Modem scientists have taken samples of Her water and have been unable to culture any bacteria or virus. Her divinity is stronger than disease, stronger than sin, stronger than impurity. Let us offer our prayers to the holy Mother, by whose divine grace we live lives of joy.
