The Great Stupa, universally known as Boudha or Boudhanath, is also called Jharung Khashor. The Great Boudhanath Stupa, built in the 5th century, is one of the most ancient, largest and magnificent Stupas in the world. It is the most important place of pilgrimage and worship for Buddhists all over the world. It is located in Kathmandu, Nepal. The Great Stupa symbolizes the Mind of all the Buddhas. It is believed that whoever prostrates and circumambulates with a pure heart at the Great Stupa creates good karma resulting in the fulfillment of all their wishes. It is said that once in twelve years, during the “Jhya Lho” or bird year, holy water or ambrosia seeps out of the Great Stupa.
