The function of a stupa is more than just symbolism, however. When a great teacher, such as His Holiness the XVI Gyalwa Karmapa, is alive, his body is known as the nirmanakaya and is not regarded as an ordinary body, but is seen as containing the very essence of awakened mind. Similarly when the teacher dies physically, his remains are considered to be a distillation of this same essence and to have enormous power, the power of complete wakefulness. The proper container for these remains is therefore a stupa, which will enshrine the aspirations, blessings and form of the teacher. The Tashi Gomang Stupa will contain relics of Sakyamuni Buddha, of His Holiness the XVI Gyalwa Karmapa, and of many highly realized Bodhisattvas. In addition one hundred thousand tsatsas, or miniature stupas, are being made by volunteers, each of which contains rolls of mantras and the names of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, carrying heir blessings and vows to help all beings. These will be placed inside the stupa, together with many mandalas and offerings. While the outer shape is like the body, the interior holds the life force, invoking the presence and the deep goodness and infinite compassion of all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. A statue of the XVI Gyalwa Karmapa is also being made to be placed in the base of the stupa, along with numerous decorative items and symbols.

Tashi Gomang Stupa is the largest and most spectacular stupa in Crestone, located at the very end of Baca Grande Way, the road to many of the spiritual centers in Crestone. You will may want to hike the mile or so, as the road is rather rough. Spectaular views from here too (the map says 'Westcliffe', but this is really in Crestone).

Don't believe the internet ... this is one of the must see shrines in the Crestone Baca area. It is not in Wescliffe. The Crestone, Colorado Stupa established by His Holiness Rangjung Rigpe Dorje, the Sixteenth Gyalwa Karmapa. In addition to the Stupa, views of the Great Sand Dunes, the San Luis Valley, and the mountains are stunning.
