On the sandy banks of the Holy River Ganges in Rishikesh the steady stream of women and children emerging from the swirling turquoise waters below rarely slows . Dressed in brilliant blues , emerald greens , kids in tow they ’ ve all just experienced the powerful healing and cleansing that only the great “ Ganga ” can provide . Coming from all over the country and all over the world this unique experience may be one of a lifetime . After wading , bathing , floating or ladling this holy water on their infant ’ s head you can see the joy on their faces and feel the peace and contentment in their hearts .
