Arjuna Enters Indra's Celestial City Amaravati

Sagara's Lineage Continues Through Anshuman and Dilipa

After completing the sacrifice, Sagara is honored by the gods and hands the kingdom to his grandson Anshuman before departing to heaven. Anshuman rules well, then passes the throne to his son Dilipa — who, grieving for his dead ancestors, tries desperately to bring down the Ganga but fails, and eventually hands the burden to his son Bhagiratha before retiring to the forest.
