Question: How did Bhima go to Nagaloka when thrown into the river? How is the river connected to Nagaloka?
Answer by Romapada Swami: Bhima sank to the bottom of the Ganges river and was carried by underwater currents. The celestial abode of the divine serpent beings, the Nagas, could be reached through the Ganges, and Bhima was swept along a mystical path right into their midst.
