The Kalachakra World Peace Stupa, is the first of its kind to be built in the Southern Hemisphere and aims to protect against negative energies and restore balance to the earth in times of war, conflict, and environmental destruction – says Gen Lama Thupten Phontsok, the Tibetan Monk monk who has guided the Stupa design and dimensions.

Seems we need all the help we can get on planet Earth right now. The project certainly impacted many lives from its conception followed by project planning, design, and construction to a Shrine celebrating the highest aspirations of humankind – Love, Kindness, Compassion, and Inner Peace.

 

Building of the World Peace Stupa

The Stupa was built in stages and finally assembled on 30 March 2012. Each stage forms a separate chamber which is ceremonially filled with written prayers, artifacts, and sacred objects before the chamber is sealed and ready for the next level of the Stupa construction. The intricate decorations were hand-carved by the dedicated Guyoto Monks over several weeks.

“The patterning, molding, and casting of the square stepped elements, the sphere, and the crown assembly was an intricate piece of work,” says Chris Brown, Domeshells CEO. “It’s a very unusual and interesting project and it’s been a privilege to be involved.”
