Introduction of Lotus Blossom Stupa
Before Buddhism, great teachers were interred in mounds. Some were cremated, while others were buried in a seated, meditative position, covered by an earth mound. Consequently, the domed shape of the stupa evolved to represent a person seated in meditation, mirroring the Buddha's posture when he attained Enlightenment and knowledge of the Four Noble Truths. The stupa's base symbolizes his crossed legs in meditation, the middle portion represents the Buddha’s body, and the top of the mound, from which a pole rises surrounded by a small fence, signifies his head. Prior to the creation of human Buddha images, reliefs frequently depicted practitioners demonstrating devotion to a stupa.
