220 A Girl Gifts Gold to a Stupa Monks in the Morning from Colombo Dhamma Friends

Have you ever seen a stupa before? Or maybe just a photo? Stupas hold the relics of the Supreme Buddha or Arahant disciples of the Supreme Buddha. Usually these relics are small pieces of bone or hair, or sometimes teeth. Showing respect to these places is a very powerful way of collecting merit, isn’t it.

In today’s episode we’ll learn about a young girl who showed respect to the relics by offering something you might not expect.
