Major attraction of Muktinath Helicopter Tour
There are two Kunda in front of Muktinath Temple. (Water ponds). This is typically used for holy bathing and is thought to have the ability to wash away bad karma and the effects of one’s previous bad deeds.
The Tibetan-inspired Jwala Mai Temple is located a little below the Muktinath Temple. The water that erupts from a rock inside this temple is renowned. Small natural gas jets that provide light are concealed beneath a frayed curtain within this temple. The Jwala Mai temple features three perpetual fires that are continuously burning and are fuelled by natural gas: the “Holy flame from soil,” the “Holy flame from rock,” and the “Holy flame from water.” It appears that there are two flames burning continually. Hindus hold that Brahma, the creator, sparked this fire as an offering when he set some water on fire.
This is a Tibetan-style monastery. The Syandol Lama, a Tibetan monk, is said to have founded this monastery, according to legend. Before to its collapse, this was actually being utilized as a hostel for monks; however, the people of Tibet and Jharkot later reconstructed it. The principal monasteries of the gods are those of Sakyamuni, Chingresig, and Guru Rimpoche. It might be worthwhile to visit the monastery, which is located to the left of the Muktinath temple complex’s main gate.
Lord Shri Swaminarayan is a Hindu Guru who is frequently linked to the Muktinath Temple. He was also referred to as a Satguru of Sabij Yoga and, during the end of the 18th century, he spent two and a half months performing extreme penance in Muktinath, where he eventually acquired the pinnacle of Nishkamvrat proficiency. In 2003, his supporters paid for the construction of a new wall surrounding Muktinath and erected a little memorial to him there.
The River Kali Gandaki, where visitors can gather fossils from the Jurassic era, is an additional attraction for pilgrims. These fossils can also be purchased from locals. A fossilized black stone called Shaligram, which is kept in the home’s Pooja (prayer) chamber, is revered if it is discovered. Lord Vishnu is said to be represented by it.
