Arising historically from the chaitya (funerary mounds) of early Buddhism and symbolically from the tope (ushnisha), bundle of hair, on the crown of the Buddha's head, the stupa is viewed as a physical representation of the unseen enlightened mind of a Buddha. Later the stupa became a symbol incorporating both the blueprint for the path to enlightenment and enlightenment itself.

could you comment on the symbology of the lunar crescent-sun disk-fire combo seen on top of so many stupas? thank you
also i'd like to know the name or where to find the particular stupa artifact shown at 0:42
So what's the least famous more interesting of many stupas? (*0:30)
Naga stupas of Kathmandu, Nestorian stupas of China, gateway stupas of West Tibet with the walls on the inside filled with painted murals are examples of the less known stupas.
@@jeffwatt5114 Thanks. Did you hear about energy gathering from the ether by stupas? Named as a purpose for stupas. There's a clip from a working temple on the internet.
