सर्गः ३४
In which Viśvāmitra leads Rāma from the Śōṇa to the Gaṅgā bank and tells how Himavat's daughter Gaṅgā goes to the gods and Umā to Rudra
Viśvāmitra wakes Rāma at dawn on Śōṇa bank — Rāma performs morning rites and asks crossing path — Viśvāmitra shows R̥ṣi path and leads party onward — Party reaches Jāhnavī at midday and camps rejoicing — Party bathes, offers oblations and gathers round Viśvāmitra — Rāma asks how Gaṅgā traverses three worlds to ocean — Viśvāmitra names Mēnā's peerless daughters Gaṅgā and Umā — Gods take Gaṅgā for three worlds and Himavat weds Umā to Rudra
