Chaitya (Stupa)
The stupa, which represents the Buddhist universe, is a Buddhist shrine. It is a mound-like or hemispherical structure containing relics, sometimes square and sometimes round, with spires or steps on the capital. Each spire or step represents a heaven.
The topmost part is a point believed to be the highest peak of Mount Sumeru, a mythical mountain where the Boddhichitta* loses itself in Sunya*. It is used as a place for meditation. A related architectural term is Chaitya, a prayer hall or temple containing a stupa.
*Boddhichitta = (‘enlightenment mind‘ or ‘the thought of awakening‘) is the mind (chitta) directed with wisdom towards awakening (boddhi).
*Sunya = Emptiness
You can use this stupa for many different purposes, such as for yoga, for meditation sessions, for various Buddhist festive occasions and even as a precious interior decoration.
The crystal gives clear thoughts and positive energy.
