Pujya Sri Swamiji, God Word II (Chapter 23, Ego is the greatest enemy

People say that Ganges washes away all sins. But even after taking a dip
in the Ganges they do not believe that they have been purified. If there
is no sincere faith, neither the Ganges, nor even Lord Shiva, who holds
the Ganges in His head, can purify them. Bhava Shuddhi, a deep faith and
intense devotional feeling in the sayings of the scriptures and of
saints are important.

Listening to melodious sounds makes us forget ourselves. Sound is the
spirit of all beings. Sound gives us
joy and pleasure. It is immanent in all living beings.
