Introduction To Stupa :
From being simple sepulchral places to monuments of veneration and enlightenment, stupas are now fundamental places of devotion for Buddhism. Currently, in Buddhism, the shape of a stupa is related to the meditative status of Buddha, with the base of the monument representing the crossed legs, the middle part representing the rest of the body, and the top representing the head of Buddha. This unusual shape is related not only to the body of Buddha, his energy and spirit, but also to the path towards Enlightenment, to a mountain, and the entire universe. This place represents Buddha's mind and body, the connection between divinity and the physical part of Buddhism. This is the perfect representation of his enlightened mind.
