Glass Stupa with Precious Container – 12.5cm
Glass Stupa with Precious Container – 12.5cm
This unique delicately-crafted flawless and translucent glass ‘Stupa of Enlightenment’ is adorned with a lovely hand-painted golden spire composed of a metal alloy. The spire, topped with a small white pearl at its apex, can easily be opened so that sacred relics, saffron, nectar pills, or mantras [Tibetan 'zung'], can be inserted in the ‘vase’. The stupa, composed of high quality durable material with a smooth seamless surface, represents the enlightened mind of the Buddha and is full of symbolism.
The three steps forming the base symbolize the Three Jewels. Above the steps, is the ornately-carved Lion’s Throne. Above that, four steps represent the Four Immeasurables. The ‘vase,’ adorned with a tiny Buddha statue in Earth-touching Mudra, represents the 7 Elements of Enlightenment. Above that, the harmika symbolizes the Eightfold Path while the 13 disks above it represent the 13 Powers of Buddha. The parasol represents compassion while the topmost jewel, sun, and moon represent enlightenment, wisdom, and compassion respectively.
Measuring 12.5cm high, and 6cm in diameter.
