that past Buddha planted a lotus that miraculously blossomed
from the lake. Manjushree, while meditating at the sacred
mountain, had a vision of the brilliant but mysterious
light radiated by the lotus and flew across China and
Tibet to worship it. In order to make it accessible
to the pilgrims, Manjushree drained out water from the
lake and thus, the lotus was transformed into a hilltop
and the light into Swayambhunath Stupa. Hence, the derivation
of the title Swayambhu, which means self-creation. This
