Depuis que la Bhāgīrathī Gaṅgā, la meilleure des rivières, est parvenue en ce lieu, dès lors le fleuve céleste adore avec joie ce même Liṅga chaque jour.

Tirtha: Bhāgīrathī Gaṅgā at Kāśī (near Cakrapuṣkariṇī/Jyotīrūpeśvara)
Type: ghat

The sanctity of Kāśī is affirmed by Gaṅgā herself, whose continual worship models daily devotion.
The site where Gaṅgā arrived in Kāśī, connected to the worship of the local Liṅga (Jyotīrūpeśvara context).
