Ganges

For the most Indian religions the Ganges is sacred. The bath in it is cleaning of sin and promises absolution. Many Hindus want die to in the Ganges, preferably in Varanasi. If they can’t day in the river they like to know that their ash will be put into the river. The people worship this river so much, because of similar reason to the cow. The river always gave the people water and a legend says that Ganges is a goddess and was sent to the earth, because a human king prayed and asked Brahman for it.
