This river actually starts at the confluence of the Satopanth and Bhagirath Kharak glaciers in Uttarakhand.

Sandy River
If possible, please help me identify the author of the following verse:?

“I am my Mother. I am my Father. They are me, and they shall be my seed. The blood of ages washes not from a sandy shore but from the sturdy rocks of the center river of Eden.”

It is carved into the stone base of the statue of the ‘Second Supplement’ in wooded, rural Pittsylvania County, Va.

There are a few variations on the same theme.

"I am my mother, I am my father I am of the gods, I am of the non-gods I am the sum of all who have gone before me I am the measure of all things in my world..."

"I am my mother. I am my father. I am my grandmother. I am my great-grandmother..."

"I am my mother. I am my father. I am their stretching edges. I am their questions asked and answered. The bearer of untold storied. I am neither of them..."

No specific author, maybe related to scriptural or other beliefs' verses.
