The Stupa: Sacred Symbol of Enlightenment

by Elizabeth Cook

This volume of the Crystal Mirror Series, dedicated to the Future of Buddhism in the West, gives us an in-depth look at stupas all over the world. It illustrates their shapes, gives the history of each stupa and its location, and offers verses from traditional texts on the Svayambhu Stupa and circumambulating the stupa. The color photographs are stunning and among the sepia photos are many arhival ones of no longer to be seen sites.
