According to Hindu Mythology River Tapti is a daughter of Lord Surya. Purana are dedicated to this holy river which says that virtues of this river are as holy as Ganges. The Tapi purana states "Ganga Snane, Narmada Darshane ch Tapti Smarane paapam nashyati", meaning by bathing in the Ganges, beholding Narmada and remembering Tapi, one can be delivered from all sins.
The Tapti River also has pilgrimages on its bank where devotees take holy dips. |
