jkdkfgkhlkhsdfgon Ganges River: India's dying mother

"Hindus revere the Ganges as a god. They believe she came down from heaven to cleanse the Earth, and that bathing in her waters can wash away a person’s sins."

What a bunch of bullshit by some random westerner who does not understand jack shit.

It is quite common knowledge that in the divine sense of Ganga, she originates from the dreadlocks of Lord Shiva and thus is a manifestation of purity in some sense. Mount Kailash is generally understood as the abode of The Destroyer (of evil).

Do write about the pathetic state in which the river is in. That is being factual. Don't bring in the religious angle. That is just stepping into territory that is very difficult to grasp from a western perspective.
