सरयू १ / SARAYŪ I. A river very famous in the Purāṇas. The most important things associated with the river are given below:(i) Seven tributaries of gaṅgā originate from the golden peaks of the Himālayas and sarayū is one of them. Those who bathe in the river will be absolved from sins. (Ādi Parva, Chapter 169, Verse 20)(ii) The river exists in Varuṇa's court worshipping him. (Ādi Parva, Chapter 8).(iii) śrī kṛṣṇa, arjuna and bhīma, on their way to girivraja from indraprastha crossed this river. (Sabhā Parva, Chapter 20, Verse 28).(iv) It was at Gotāra (or Gopratara) in this river that śrī rāma drowned himself to death and attained Viṣṇupāda. (Vana Parva, Chapter 84, Verse 70).(v) This river is the source of agni (fire). (Vana Parva, Chapter 222, Verse 22).(vi) vasiṣṭha once blocked the course of gaṅgā on its way to kailāsa at Mānasasarovara. But, gaṅgā broke the obstruction and flowed on, and sarayū is the stream that started from there. (anuśāsana parva, Chapter 155, Verse 23).(vii) It is one of the rivers to be remembered both at dawn and dusk. (anuśāsana parva, Chapter 165, Verse 21).(viii) The city of ayodhyā is situated on the banks of sarayū. (vālmīki rāmāyaṇa, Bālakāṇḍa, Canto 5, Verse 5).
