The Nagarjuna Peak has a deep spiritual significance for Buddhist devotees, stemming from a tale of the legendary philosopher Acharya Nagarjuna and a young buffalo herder. According to the story, the herder encountered the master while passing by his cave while grazing his buffalos in the forest. Over time, he developed a close relationship with Nagarjuna. The herder eventually invited the Master to his hometown but was refused and told to meditate in the cave. While meditating, the herder was overcome with a vision and unconsciously transformed into a buffalo, leaving a tell-tale track on the cave roof. Nagarjuna then instructed him to relax, and he regained his original form. Thus, Nagarjuna Peak has become a holy site, symbolizing wisdom and transformation
