Question

What makes a place sacred? A place where meditation is practised over many years automatically acquires certain

powers. The place gets charged with the energy and vibrations from peaceful thoughts. Depending on the intensity of

meditators, the sanctity and power of a particular place can thus remain charged, exuding powerful vibrations, for

thousands of years. The Parshvanath Hills is one such place. Twenty-two of the 24 Jain Tirthankaras attained nirvana

on this hill, and these enlightened persons were separated by thousands of years. When a Tirthankara leaves his body,

the equivalent of an atomic explosion takes place.

The energy that the united body and soul is released. This power is dispersed on the hill. The whole atmosphere and

surroundings get surcharged. What the Parshvanath Hills are to the Jains, the Ganga is to the Hindus. Lord Krishna

said, "Among the armed, I am like Ram; I am like a crocodile among fish and the Ganga among rivers. Dear Arjuna, I am

the beginning, the end and even the middle of existence". The symbolism of the Ganga is worth understanding. Take

away the Ganga from India and all the literature of India will become incomplete. Take away the Ganga and the names

of many sages will perish; the spirit of pilgrimage will be lost. The Ganga has become the symbol of our collective

spirit. What is so special about the Ganga? There are rivers that are much longer, wider, larger, than the Ganga on this

planet - the Brahmaputra, the Amazon, the Nile and the Hwang Ho. There is something unique about the Ganga that is

not found in any of these great rivers: despite all the pollutants being pumped into the Ganga, it has somehow managed

to maintain its relative purity. Chemically, it contains extraordinary properties - its water does not putrefy or deteriorate

even if kept bottled for long, unlike the water from other rivers. It is interesting to know that the water of the Ganga has

properties different from those of other rivers but which seem to undergo a mystical change once they flow into the

Ganga's waters. This is a mystery that even science has not been able to understand, as of yet.
