Gangawater

नदीजलम्

River water (Nadi Jala) varies in quality depending on the origin and course of the river. Rivers originating from the Himalayas (Himalaya-prabhava) carry water that is sweet, light, cold, and wholesome. Rivers flowing eastward toward the sea tend to have better quality water. Rivers originating from the Sahya mountains (Western Ghats) and Vindhya mountains may carry different properties. The speed of flow, the type of terrain, and exposure to sunlight all affect river water quality. Fast-flowing rivers over rocky terrain produce lighter, purer water. Verses 21-31.
