How did River Ganga come on Earth?

Survanshi king Dilipa’s son Bhagirath was performing a very harsh penance in the Himalayas. He wanted to bring river Ganga to earth from the heaven because only she could bestow nirvana to Bhagirath’s ancestors who were burnt to ashes because of sage Kapil’s curse.

After many years, Bhagirath was able to please Ganga. He heard the whispers from the heaven above “I am ready to come to earth as per your wishes but who will be able to stop my mighty tides and flow. I might sweep away the whole planet and end up in Patal Lok.”

Bhgirath was perplexed, he asked Ganga to provide a solution. Ganga replied that only Lord Shiva has the ability and valor to channelize her. If he agrees to keep me on his head, things will work out in favor of everyone. Hearing this, Bhagirath started praying to Lord Shiva. Pleased by the penance, Shiva agreed to let Ganga flow from his hair.
