Introduction of Enlightenment Stupa

Prior to Buddhism, great teachers were interred in mounds. While some were cremated, others were occasionally buried in a seated, meditative posture, covered by a mound of earth. Consequently, the domed shape of the stupa came to symbolize a person seated in meditation, mirroring the Buddha's posture when he attained Enlightenment and understood the Four Noble Truths. The base of the stupa represents his crossed legs in a meditative pose, the middle portion signifies the Buddha's body, and the top of the mound, featuring a pole rising from the apex encircled by a small fence, represents his head. Before human images of the Buddha were created, reliefs frequently depicted practitioners demonstrating devotion to a stupa.
