Guest guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Namaste Richardji, Can you write more on this - "There is also a mudra, mantra, and method to turn normal water into Ganga jala". Will help us. Warm Regards Vishram Richard Shaw-Brown <rsbj66 > wrote: /dispCategory.php?catId=27 they sell Ganga jal. I think it's purified of germs...better write them and ask about that. It's worth to get it because you can mix normal water into the Ganga jal and you have a lot more. Sure, drinking unpurified Gangajal can make you ill. I know of a true story from last year. In Vraja-Mandala, in Varshan-dham, at Maan Mandir is Avadhuta Radha Charan Babaji - he has been caretaker there since over 60 years now. Last year he lead a group of devotees on a confidential Vraja Mandala Parikrama. At one sacred kunda they all sipped water...and one videshi man became so ill that he died within 12 hours of drinking that holy water. They got him to the hospital in Vrindavan in time, but he died anyway. There is also a mudra, mantra, and method to turn normal water into Ganga jala.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Hello, Boil it, and you should be fine drinking it :-) There is a story about Ganga jal and its meaning. It says a crooked Mother in law did not take her god fearing holy daughter in law for pilgrimage to bath in Ganges. While the mother in law took a dip in ganga one of her earings slipped away with the currents. When she reached home the daughter in law said "Hey look what i found in the vessel we store water? Your earing? Did you just wear one earing while leaving?" Hence the saying, "Mun changa to Kathrot mein Ganga!" Keep your heart and mind pure and find the ganges in your bathroom tap.
