The Holy Dip

They say there is 'Nectar' in this holy water and one dip will wash away all the sins, also it will break the cycle of re-birth... At Sangam, the confluence of three holy rivers, Ganga, Yamuna and mythological Saraswati.

Religion: Aarti of Ganga Jee at Sangam, Allahabad

(Devotional offering to Goddess Ganga(River Ganges) at Sangam, Allahabad)

River Ganges has a special importance in Hindu Religion and is considered as the most Holy river in India. Every evening, the Aarti or offering ritual is performed at holy places on the river bank. At Rishikesh, Haridwar, Allahabad and Varanasi, this spiritual ritual is very powerful.

For the first time, I witnessed this at Triveni Sangam, Allahabad.
