Swimming in the Ganges
December 21, 2007
At the end of the pujas, we were off for a dip in the Ganges. I had thought about the (supposed) risks of swimming in one of the world’s most polluted rivers…but when the time came there was no question. In I went and it was a spectacular experience. There really is something special about the Ganges. And, to answer the obvious question, I did not get sick in spite of being in the river for about 15 minutes!
