The stupa is the oldest Buddhist religious monument and was originally only a simple mound of mud or clay to cover relics of the Buddha. Pagoda: The stupa evolved into the pagoda as Buddhism spread to other Asian countries. The pagoda has varied forms that also include bellshaped and pyramidal ones. Today, in the Western context, there is no clear distinction between the stupa and the pagoda. But in general stupa is used for a Buddhist structure of India or south-east Asia, while pagoda refers to a building in east Asia which can be entered and which may be secular in purpose. Mrs. Svetik World History 8 Zen Gardens Zen Gardens: The Japanese rock gardens or "dry landscape" gardens, often called "Zen gardens", are a type of garden that features extensive use of rocks or stones, along with plants native to rocky or alpine environments that were influenced mainly by Zen Buddhism and can be found at Zen temples of meditation. The act of raking the gravel into a pattern recalling waves or rippling water has an aesthetic function. Zen priests practice this raking also to help their concentration. Achieving perfection of lines is not easy. Developing variations in patterns is a creative and inspiring challenge. Buddhist Garuda Statues: Lord Garuda is believed to be eagle king and appears as a large mythical bird or bird like creature in Hindu and Buddhist mythology. Mrs. Svetik World History 8 Hindu Deities Buddha Rupas Hindu Deities: Within Hinduism a large number of personal gods are worshipped. These beings are either aspects of the supreme Brahman (the one supreme, universal Spirit that is the origin and of the universe), Avatars of the supreme being(In Hinduism, an avatar is a deliberate descent of a deity to earth), or significantly powerful entities known as devas. Often these beings are depicted in humanoid or partially humanoid forms. Buddhist Rupas: Rupa literally means form, but is commonly used to refer to statues of the Buddha. Buddhist Mandala Maṇḍala The basic form of most Hindu and Buddhist mandalas is a square with four gates containing a circle with a center point. These mandalas have spiritual and ritual significance in both Buddhism and Hinduism. They are also a key part of meditation practices. In various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for focusing attention, as a spiritual teaching tool, for establishing a sacred space, and as an aid to meditation and trance induction.
