The Divine Descent

Born in the heavens, brought to earth through devotion, and held in the locks of Shiva with infinite compassion.

The sacred tradition of Gangavatarana tells of King Bhagiratha’s extraordinary Tapasya to bring the celestial Ganga to Earth for the liberation of his ancestors. As the immense force of Ganga descended from the heavens, Bhagavan Shiva compassionately received her into his matted locks before allowing her sacred waters to flow gently upon the Earth. The descent of Maa Ganga remains one of Bharat’s profound sacred narratives—a timeless expression of Tapasya, grace, compassion and liberation.
