A dip in ganga. #
Description
According to local legend, it sprang forth when the Lord Rama, the exiled hero of the epic Ramayana, stopped at the spot in search of his kidnapped wife Sita.As the legend goes, overcome with fatigue and thirst, Rama asked his brother Lakshmana to bring him some water. Laxman instantly shot an arrow into the ground, and water gushed forth from the ground, creating a tributary of the Ganges, which flows over a thousand miles away, hence its name, Banganga, the Ganga created by a baan arrow.[5]The Banganga also houses the `Shri Kashi Math` and `Shri Kaivalya or Kavale Math` of the Goud Saraswat Brahmins at its banks and samadhis of their various past heads of the Math.
