She is mentioned in the Bhaktamāla, confirming that she was widely known and a revered figure in the Bhakti movement culture by around 1600 CE.

Hindu temples, such as those at Chittorgarh Fort, are dedicated to Mirabai's memory. Many of Mira Bai's compositions are still sung in India today, mostly in the form of devotional songs (bhajans), though almost all of them have a philosophical connotation. One of his most popular compositions is "Payoji Maine Naam Ratan Dhan Payo".

Most of the legends about Mirabai refer to her fearless disregard for social and family conventions, her devotion to Krishna, her acceptance of Krishna as her husband, and her religious devotion.
