GREATNESS OF GANGA

Naimiam is most sacred place in Kta Yuga, Puṣkaram in Tretā yuga while Kuruketram is most sacred  in Dvāpara Yuga.

In Kali Yuga, Gangā snānam is most sacred and particularly at Prayāg is considered to be the only medicine for all Sins .

Kte tu naimiam ketram tretāyām puṣkaram param !
dvāpare tu kuruketram kalau gangā  viśiyate !!
gangāmeva nieveta prayāgam tu viśeata !
nānyat kaliyuge ghore bheṣajam npa vidyate !!

- Matsya Purāa
