Once upon a time ,on the occasion of Kartiki Purnima celebrations were held for  Radha in Goloka.  On this occasion, Lord Shri Krishna worshiped Shri Radha ji, after that all the gods including Brahma and Shiva etc. also worshiped Shri Radha ji and sat there in the Rasamandal.  


Then Saraswati started singing the song with a melodious voice with her veena in hand.  The gods were very pleased to hear this music of hers. In the meantime, on insisting  of Brahma, Mahadev Ji started singing the verses related to Shri Krishna again and again.  Hearing this music, all the gods became unconscious, it seemed like all deities are statues.  After some time everyone became conscious and became aware of their surroundings , then they saw that , there is  water every where in the Rasamandal and it is filled with water, they did not know whereabouts of  Shri Krishna and Shri Radha in that loka.  Then all the gods Rishi Gana and Gopa Gopi started crying loudly. At that time Brahma ji , who’s was also present in rasamandala . Learned  through meditation, that it is  Lord Shri Krishna and Shri Radha have transformed into the water in ras mandal .  Then all the gods started praying Lord Shri Krishna, saying Lord, please show us again in your idol form.  Then there gods heard  a very melodious voice,the voice said, Gods I shri krishna  and my energy Shri Radha ji, have worn this watery form.  What purpose do you have from our idol and if you want to see our idol form, then Brahma ji, ask Shiva to create a section of Vedas containing mantras.  In which all the mantras and their power are present and also create my kavach . If Mahadev makes such a vow, then I will show my idol form with Shri Radha. After this, on the request of Brahma Ji, Mahadevji agreed to the creation of Tantra Shastra and Mahadev ji, taking the water in the hands ,which was form of  Shri Krishna and Radha , vowed that he would follow the order of Shri Krishna and later Shiva in praise of goddess jagdamba  created the best Sattvic Tantras of Jagadamba.  After taking the pledge of Mahadev, Lord Shri Krishna and Shri Radha ji immediately appeared in their idol form in Ras Mandal.  Which made all the gods very happy and filled them in joy and they celebrated again.


In this way, in the Goloka, Lord Krishna himself appeared in the form of water with Sri Radha ji,  water form of radha and krishna  is called Ganga.


Once Lord Krishna was seated in Goloka, in Rasamandal.  The water body created of the form of Lord Shri Krishna and Shri Radha ji, which is known as Shri Ganga ji came in the form of a beautiful woman to the place in ras mandal  where Lord Shri Krishna was seated.  Goddess ganga  was fascinated by the form of ,Lord Krishna, she was enjoying looking at  him again and again.  Shri Krishna was also sometimes looked  at Shri Ganga Ji.  In mean time  Shri Radha ji entered there.  S Ganga ji’s heart was  not yet satisfied by looking at krishna  that’s why she was starting him again and again. Seeing Lord Shri Krishna and Shri Gangaji staring at each other like this, Radha ji got angry and started saying to Shri Krishna.  I saw you earlier with a gopi named Virja, who renounced her body and took the form of a river.  When I saw you with the gopi named Kshama, Prabha, Shanti, Shobha, then all of them sacrificed their bodies and later you shared the qualities arising from them among all the gods.  


Radha ji wanted to say something to Ganga ji after talking to Lord Krishna. Ganga was proficient in yoga, she came to know what was going on in the mind of Radha ji with yoga transformed  in the form of water in the middle of meeting.  Shri Radha realized that Ganga ji has transformed into water, then in anger, she started taking water in her hand and started drinking it. Ganga ji, who is the presiding goddess of water and fluid, gathered entire water of the whole world and took refuge of Lord Krishna and got absorbed in his feet.  Then Radha ji searched for her in Goloka, Vaikuntha and in entire universe  but could not find her anywhere.  At that time, there was a lack of water in the entire creation, so all the gods like Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva etc. went to Golok and told Lord Krishna about their problems. Listening to the gods, Shrihari said that Ganga will come with you in the form of water in  the entire universe, but Shri Radha ji is very angry on her because Ganga ji was attracted to me and was staring at me.  Due to fear of Radha ji, Ganga has now absorbed into my feet.  If you convince Shri Radha ji, Ganga will come out of my feet and come with you.  The Gods then prayed Shri Radha ji and told Radha ji, to send Ganga ji with them to remove water scarcity from universe.  On praying by Gods, Radha ji became calm  and forgave Ganga ji and agreed to send her from Goloka. Later, Ganga ji came out of the feet of Lord Krishna appeared in front of everyone in a female form, Later Brahma Ji filled the ganga in water from in his Kamandalu and took her with him.  Ganga ji is also called Vishnupadi due to coming out from the feet of God.  In this way, Ganga is flowing From Golok to Patalloka
