PARAGA (PRAYAGA)

PARAGA (PRAYAGA)

PARAGA (PRAYAGA) Bathing in Paraga (Prayaga) etc. do not equal the Praises of the Name of the Lord. (Gond Namdev, p. 873) Giving away great meterials in charity in the month of Magh at Paraga (Prayaga) and getting the body sawed at Kashi— without the Name of the Lord none attains salvation….. (Mali Gaura M. 4, p. 986) Paraga (Prayaga), the famous pilgrim-station of Hindus is nowadays called Allahabad. There is confluence of three rivers here, Ganga (Ganges), Yamuna and the fabled subterranean Sarasvati.
