Yamuna

Yamuna is the river the book’s notes identify as the Jumna. Its brief appearance joins physical geography to divine genealogy: it belongs to a named river landscape and is also personified as a member of the solar family.

Geographic Setting

The notes place the Jumna in the sacred geography of Prayag. In a nearby explanation, the Sarasvati is said to join the Ganges and the Jumna there, situating Yamuna within a three-river confluence tradition rather than describing its course or role in a particular episode.

Divine Identity

The commentary says the river is personified as the twin sister of Yáma and therefore regarded as a daughter of the Sun. This identification makes the river more than a geographic feature: its place in the landscape is linked to kinship among divine figures.

Place in the Book

Yamuna is treated in the supplied passage as a subject of explanatory commentary, not as a participant in a narrated scene. The note’s compact pairing of location and personification preserves two distinct dimensions of the river’s significance: its association with Prayag and its identity in sacred tradition.
