The brass stupa is an architectural structure in Buddhism and Hinduism, and holds profound spiritual symbolism and significance. Its multi-tiered design, from the earthly base that includes the presence of two lions on both sides, to the pinnacle, symbolizes the stages of spiritual evolution, starting from the material world's suffering and leading to the ultimate attainment of enlightenment and liberation.
The stupa is adorned with a small image of a seated Buddha which represents the Buddha's watchful presence and wisdom, and also decorated with sacred relics, the stupa serves as a focal point for devotion, meditation, and circumambulation. Devotees offer prayers, flowers, incense, and lamps as acts of reverence, recognizing the impermanence of worldly existence and the path to spiritual awakening that the stupa represents.
