The Tibetan Buddhist tradition states that Guru Rimpoche, also known as Padmasambhava, the founder of Tibetan Buddhism had meditated at Muktinath on its way to Tibet.
The shrine of Muktinath is one of the eight most sacred shrines for Hindu Vashanavites, the other seven being Srirangam, Sri Mushnam, Tirupati, Naimisaranvam, Thottadri, Pushkaram and Badrinath.
