Description of the Rules for Charitable Gifts and Related Rites
Gaṅgā-māhātmya
पूजितायां तु गंगायां पूजिताः सर्व देवताः । तस्मात्सर्वप्रयत्नेन पूजयेदमरापगाम् ॥ ३२ ॥
pūjitāyāṃ tu gaṃgāyāṃ pūjitāḥ sarva devatāḥ | tasmātsarvaprayatnena pūjayedamarāpagām || 32 ||
جب گنگا دیوی کی پوجا کی جاتی ہے تو تمام دیوتاؤں کی پوجا ہو جاتی ہے۔ اس لیے پوری کوشش سے امرآپگا، یعنی دیوی گنگا، کی عبادت کرنی چاہیے۔
Suta (narrating the Narada Purana dialogue/tradition)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: shanta
It declares Gaṅgā-worship as comprehensive worship: honoring Gaṅgā is treated as honoring all devas, emphasizing her status as a supreme tīrtha and purifier in the Uttara-Bhāga’s tīrtha-māhātmya.
It presents a simple bhakti practice—reverent pūjā of Gaṅgā—as a direct, accessible act of devotion that gathers the merit of many devatā-upāsanās into one focused offering.
Ritual application (kalpa-oriented practice) is implied: performing pūjā with ‘sarva-prayatna’ (proper care, purity, and procedure) at a tīrtha, even though no specific śikṣā/vyākaraṇa/jyotiṣa detail is stated in this verse.
