River Gaṅgā (弶伽河: the first character is [pronounced] 其亮 [jiàng]; Sanskrit; formerly called Henghe, correctly it should be Jingjia [殑伽], pronounced 魚等 [gěng]. The name of a river in the Western Regions; this river originally emerges from the southern face of Lake Anavatapta. Because its sand is the finest and most numerous, it is cited as an analogy).
