Gangadharan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gangadharan. One who wears Ganga, the Hindu goddess. That is Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva has two wives, Parvathi and Ganga. To protect her from the wrath of Parvathi, his First wife, Shiva hid Ganga in his hair. And this is the origin of River Ganga (Ganges). In actual fact River Ganges originates from Mount Kailas (Tibet), the abode of Shiva.
