Guest guest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 >From that same page: Devi Bhagavatam: "He who utters 'Gange, Gange' even from a distance of hundreds of kilometers, becomes purified from all sins, and attains Vaikuntha, the world of Vishnu." I did this right away. Bye. Got to go to Vaikuntha now. I suspect my Vimana should be right outside waiting. See all of you there. - Nanda Friday, June 02, 2006 11:22 AM [www.ShreeMaa.org] The Picture Show - Ganga Mata Dear All, Hope you got a chance to read the file that our beloved Swamiji put together in the honor of Mother Ganga.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 We had a slight delay in leaving. The pilot really needed some chai. Seems he had a busy night as more and more people keep chanting "Gange, Gange". I introduced him to an ice blended mocha. Seems they don't have those in Vaikuntha--only Nescafe. We'll have to take that up with Vishnu. So since I still have a few more minutes here, here are a few more nice pics of Ganga Devi: http://www.namaste.it/kundalini/kundalini_eng/ganga.html www.dipika.org/.../ photopage_copy(1).html http://www.exoticindia.com/batik/bf49sm.jpg http://www.holyindia.net/images/Others%20demigods/th_Ganga-Devi.jpg astrosalon.com/ yatra_files/yatra.html (Scroll down to see Her in full force at Hardwar--one of my favorite places to envelop myself in Her.) If you prefer it a little more downstream, I'm sure you can catch some room next to this great soul: http://humanflowerproject.com/images/uploads/praying-in-the-ganges.jpg Or squeeze in for the Devnathji experience at the Main Ghat in Varanasi: http://www.jrcasan.com/impact1/Ganges.jpg http://www.ultimatejourney.com/I.Ganges.JPG the soapy guy might need you to hand him a towel for his eyes-- ;-) Or if it is a really, really hot day and you like a really refreshing dip with water that no one else has bathed in/brushed their teeth in/done their laundry in, etc/ go up to Gaumuhk above Gangotri and try this spot: http://www.indiatravelogue.com/images1/utt/gaumukh.jpg Lastly, usually devotees purchase a small copper container with Ganga Jal inside. This great soul decided he wasn't taking any chance with the water evaporating or running out: http://www.andrewhammel.com/jp%20giant%20silver%20ganges%20tub.jpg Oh, the pilot is calling now. Gotta fly.... Jai Maa Gange! - Mahamuni Das Friday, June 02, 2006 11:48 AM Re: [www.ShreeMaa.org] The Picture Show - Ganga Mata From that same page: Devi Bhagavatam: "He who utters 'Gange, Gange' even from a distance of hundreds of kilometers, becomes purified from all sins, and attains Vaikuntha, the world of Vishnu."
