Sapta Sindhu
The Sapta Sindhu (Sanskrit: सप्त सिंधु) "seven rivers" are the seven sacred rivers in Indian mythology. The Rig Veda often refers to the seven rivers.). In RV 7.36.6, the Sarasvati is the seventh river, whose mother is the Sindhu. The Zend Avesta (Vendidad Fargard I = Videvdad 1) also refers to the seven rivers (hapta həṇdu, Vendidad 1.18), which are generally equated with the Sapta Sindhu (Gnoli 1985). In the Avesta this land is referred to as one of the sixteen "best regions" of the Iranian Aryans created by the Lord.
