Cauveryb> River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bhavani River joins the Cauveryb> at the town of Bhavani, where the Sangameswarar Temple, an important pilgrimage spot in southern India, was built at the confluence of the two rivers.
The Cauveryb> River (also spelled Kaveri or Kavery) is one of the great sacred rivers of India.
The Cauveryb> is known to devout Hindus as Dakshina Ganga, or the Ganges of the south, and the whole of its course is holy ground.

Karnataka Panaroma

The river Cauveryb> is quite often referred to as the Ganga of the South.
Of all the rivers, this one came nearest of defining a river goddess: a being of beauty who blesses the land and inspires the people she waters.
Along the Cauveryb>, civilisation still presides as a vital experience whether it be the civic virtues of the people of Coorg, the municipal graces of Mysore or the splendid religious atmosphere of Srirangam.

The Cauveryb> Water War:

The Cauveryb> River and its tributaries form definitely the most contentious, if not the most important, watershed in southern India.
The Cauveryb>, like her multi-state and multinational cousins --the Mekong (Southeast Asia), the Colorado (Western U.S.), and the Okavango (southern Africa), is peaceful river in times of good rain, but when the rains fail peace fades.

Wanderlust

Sangam is the place where the great Cauveryb> and her tributary, the Arakavathi river come together.
There is no human habitation on the trek route, except for an Ashram of World Peace Center immediately after Sangam, and the Cauveryb> Fishing Camp, Galibore, 9km from Sangam.
The distance across the river was a little more than 100 meters; so there wasn't any risk, but I had to keep an eye out for other elephants on my side of the river, for the jungles were thick enough.

Rediff On The NeT Travel: A travel feature on the Cauveryb> in South India

The Cauveryb> also has some suspicious priestly activity at the annual birth ceremony of the river and this is why strict geographical attribution of the source may not coincide with the wiles of the self-appointed custodians.
Though short, compared to the other sacred rivers of India, the Cauveryb> is undoubtedly the most queenly in her cultural journey from Karnataka to Tamil Nadu.
Like the other rivers of the peninsula, the Cauveryb> flows weakly after the winter rains.

SriPedia Padhuka Sahasram

When Your Lord arrives on the banks of Cauveryb> river, His Mother-in-Law's home, She mistakes You for Her golden hued daughter, who is celebrated by all and offers all the upachArams ( Soumya-jaamAthru-yuktham Sriyamiva MahaneeyAm ThvAm apathyAbhimAnAth rasEna upacharathi)...V.S Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve.
When one witnesses the golden hue from You spreading and enveloping the Cauveryb> river as Your Lord moves around the sand banks of the river, one is reminded of the scene of the Jala Kreedai of the King of ChOLa desam in the river with his many consorts.
At that time, the turmeric powder worn on the bodies of the consorts dissolves in to the waters of the river and creates a golden hue to the waters of Cauveryb>.

Cauveryb> River

Cauveryb> River - Part II From the Krishnarajasagar dam we drove 50 km or so to Srirangapatnam, near Mysore, before we found enough water in the river to paddle it, and even then it turned out to be scarcely passable.
The river was still beautiful - deep and fast-flowing.
The river was narrowing further with each bifurcation down the delta and we felt quite at home on a little river no bigger than the Cam at Cambridge.

Journal of my trip to Bangalore, Southern India 17

There was no doubting that this was the telltale sign that a croc had come out of the river during the night.
Though tigers have been gone from this area since the last few years, there are still panthers, elephants and bears in the adjacent lands, and they still come to the river to drink.
We tied up the coracle to some reeds on the river side, and Ghillie casted a lump of ragi into the current, and allowed line to peel off the reel until he was happy with the location of the bait.
