Sacred Stupa | ස්තූප රාජයාණන් ​වහන්සේ
Mahamevnawa, Toronto

​"Dear Ananda, a stupa should be built at an intersection for the Tathagatha, the Supreme Buddha"
 "If someone offers perfumes and fragrant powder to that stupa, they will gain happiness for a long time because of these actions" 
"Dear Ananda, many people make their mind confident seeing the stupa thinking, ‘This is the great stupa of the Blessed, Arahant, Fully Enlightened Supreme Buddha."
 "Having made their mind confident in the stupa, after death they will be reborn in a good destination, in Heaven"
 "Dear Ananda, seeing this benefit, a stupa should be built for the Supreme Buddha and worshipped"

[The Blessed One – Maha Parinibbana Sutta DN 2]
