In 2014, Chögyal Namkhai Norbu initiated the project called The 108 Stupas of Changchub Dorje, based on a terma of that Master whose intention was to harmonize the conflict between the elements and to avoid the rising problem of wars.
Rinpoche asked Migmar Tsering and the Dynamic Space of the Elements team to take ahead this project of building the stupas and placing them around the globe at particular energy points and at the places of the Dzogchen Community Gars and Lings.
The Stupas are based on the original drawings of the stupas in Changchub Dorje’s terma and are manufactured in Chengdu using the lost wax technique. Made of an alloy of copper and brass they are approximately 54 cm high and 32 cm wide. Once they are filled and authenticated, they weigh between 15 and 20 kg. They can be placed outside in a garden or inside a building.
Up to now, 24 stupas have been manufactured, each filled with unique and extraordinary relics not only of Chögyal Namkhai Norbu but also other important Masters such as Adzom Drukpa, Chökyi Wangchuk, the Dalai Lama, Changchub Dorje, Nyala Pema Dündul, Karmapa, Togden Ugyen Tendzin and many others.
Of these 24, eight new models are currently on their way to Europe. They are named:
- The fruition of non-duality with the Dharma-dhātu brought to complete perfection;
- The supreme “liberation upon seeing”;
- The support of the all-pervading blessings and power of enlightened speech;
- The support that protects from every kind of destruction/disaster;
- The support of self-arisen, immaculate primordial wisdom;
- The support of the Nyingma tradition’s peaceful, enriching, magnetizing, and wrathful powers;
- The great immovable stūpa in which freedom from increase or decrease in faults and qualities has become manifest;
- The glory of the wish-fulfilling jewel that fulfills the hopes of all beings.
If a Ling or Gar or individual would like to have one of these sacred Stupas for their place, or simply donate, they can consult the website of Dynamic Space https://108-stupa.dynamicelements.org/en or contact Migmar Tsering directly at dynamicelements@yahoo.com.
