首楞嚴義疏注經 4.550

4.550

殑伽，亦恒伽，此云天堂來。此河從無熱惱池南面銀象口出，流入東印度。主河之神是女，故云神女。非鼻聞香，未見其緣。

Gaṅgā, also written as Henghe, is translated here as "Coming from Heaven." This river emerges from the silver elephant mouth on the southern side of Lake Anavatapta and flows into eastern India. The spirit governing the river is female; hence she is called a divine goddess. As for smelling fragrance without a nose, the narrative details have not been seen.
