The stupa is repository for sacred relics, offerings, mantras, and many precious relics that creates, interdependently , an enormous source of blessings. The shape of the stupa is a symbol for the various levels on the path to enlightenment, and just to look upon a stupa plants the seeds of liberation.

The red stupa contains relics of our beloved teacher, H.E. Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche. Many sangha members put their effort into the preparation of all the mantras and offerings that went into the stupa as well as the accumulation of mantras required for the consecration. To work on the stupa was a healing process for all of us. Whatever we needed for its completion simply manifested, in a miraculous way, and we felt held in Rinpoches embrace.

Being in the same room as the stupa, one cannot help but feel the power of Rinpoches enlightened intent.
