'Ganga' who is in her early 20s comes to this sacred spot known as the Brahmand Ghat situated along the banks of the river Yamuna. She would wait here everyday for her husband to come , who went to another city to earn better living. She offers prayers and often times wishes for his well being in a form of sacred piece of colored cloth and ties it onto a wish fulfilling sacred peepal tree, this is especially praying for long lives of her husband. Importance/story of this sacred place: Here, the small boy lord Krishna at earth while playing with the cowherd boys. The boys saw this and told Mother Yashoda, who asked Balram (Krishna's brother) about it. Balram verified the fact. She went to Krishna and asked Him herself, "Have You eaten clay?" He replied, "No, Maiya, I did not eat clay." "All right, Kanhaiya, open Your mouth and show me." "You can see, Maiya," He said as He opened His mouth. Looking into Kanhaiya's mouth, Maiya became dumbstruck. There, she saw innumerable universes, countless Brahmas, Vishnus and Maheshas (Shiva), and all moving and non-moving entities. She closed her eyes in fear and thought, "What is this that I am seeing? Is it an illusion or someone's magical powers?" Upon opening her eyes, Mother Yashoda saw that Kanhaiya was sitting on her lap.In resonance with this story, the mud of this place - Braj ki Raj, is considered very auspicious and pilgrims take it along with them back home for good luck and well being. read more:http://en.brajdiscovery.org/index.php?title=Brahmand_Ghat http://www.myyatradiary.com/2012/05/brahmand-ghat-purani-gokul-mahavan.html Canvas size 32"x48"
