Product Details
This extensive scriptural account of how the celestial River Ganga travels throughout the universe, by Jaya Vijaya Dasa. This is an exquisite and beautifully designed production. Sri Caitanya-bhagavata states that in the age of Kali, Lord Krishna exists in four forms: Srimad-Bhavatam, Tulasi, Vaisnavas, and Ganga. This book compiles the pastimes of Ganga-devi from Vedic literature with emphasis on her significance to Gaudiya Vaisnavism. Starting from her identity as a maid servant in Goloka Vrndavana, we learn of her origins as a sacred river and follow her lengthy course throughout the three planetary systems. The book includes narrations about Ganga-devi from the Puranas, her exalted nature and glories, and her pastimes from Gomukh, high in the Himalayas, to Ganga-sagara, where she meets the Bay of Bengal.
Hard, color dustjacket, two ribbon markers, 454 pp., 76 pages in full color, large foldout color map, over 40 original paintings, over 100 photographs.
