RELIGIOUS PLACES IN MORGAON |
| Morgaon
is situated on the banks of river Karha. Legend heard about
the origin of Karhaganga is ....
Once Brahamadeva misbehaved with Goddess Saraswati.
He felt very much guilty of his behaviour. He became restless.
To purify his mind he visited all holy places in the world, conducted
all the rituals and collected the holy water (Tirth) in his Kamandalu.
Then also he was not pacified so he came to Morgaon.
He did Pooja-Abhishek on Mayureshwar. While taking holy
rounds of Mayureshwar, Kamandalu filled with sacred water was
tumbled down by Brahamadeva's leg. God Brahma was sorely
dissappointed. While he was refilling his Kamandalu Shree Mayureshwar
said, "O God Brahma ! Don't feel disappointed and don't fill this
Kamandalu. Let this water be flown here in the form of river.
Brahma Kamandalu Ganga i.e Karhaganga to destroy world's sin.
You take a spoonful of sacred water and be purified."
Like this Karhaganga appeared in Morgaon. There are
seven tirthas in the course of five miles of river Karha.
They are Shree Ganesh Tirth, Bhima Tirth, Vyas Tirth, Rishi Tirth,
Sarvapunya Tirth and Shree Ganeshgaya Tirth. |
