Thread- On Ma Ganga in Lord Shivas head.
According to our Puranas, there was a mighty king named Sagar who decided to perform an Ashwamedha Yagna to prove his sovereignty. But Indra Dev became env!ous by seeing this and tried to stop this ritual somehow.

So Indra Dev misleaded the horse and abduct€d it and tied in Sage Kapils ashram. The King ordered all his sons to find the horse out and bring the culprit. The sons saw it in the ashram of Sage Kapil and mistakenly abus€d and ass@ulted him a lot.

Sage Kapil got angry and cursed them and their bodies to be burnt from all inside.The Sage then returned the horse to the Kind Sagar's grandson Anshuman.Aftr giving the horse, the Sage said to him that all d sons of the King could be freed from the curse if Ma Ganga purified them

Anshuman tried to plead Lord Brahma to help them bring the Ganga to earth but failed to appease him & passed the task to his son, Bhagiratha. Bhagiratha was able to please Brahma, who ordered Ganga to descent to Earth.

The fur!ous Ganga felt this as an insult and decided to destroy Earth with her force while descending from heaven.Bhagiratha was warned by Brahma that earth will not be able to hold Ganga while descending from heaven, so he must seek the help of Lord Shiva.

Bhagiratha pleaded to Lord Shiva to help him and finally Lord Shiva after seeing his devotion , agreed to fulfill his wish to receive Ganga in his matted locks ie, on his head.
Finally all the sons of the King attained Moksha.
