ஶ்ரீ கங்காஷ்டோத்தரஶதநாமாவலீ

The hundred and eight names of Gaṅgā as a litany, each in the dative between Oṁ and namaḥ, and the list is organised almost entirely by who she belongs to rather than by what she does. She is born from Viṣṇu's foot and dear to Hara; daughter of the lord of the snow mountain and mother of Tāraka's enemy, which is Kārttikeya; Bhāgīrathī and the follower of Bhagīratha's chariot; arisen from the step of Trivikrama and travelling the path of the three worlds; the crest-jewel on the head of the enemy of the three cities; Jāhnavī; the co-wife of Umā and, a few names later, Umā's own sister. Two names near the end place her in the Mahābhārata rather than the Purāṇas — the wife of Bhava and the mother of Bhīṣma — and between them all she is called simply the mother of the world.
