When completed and consecrated, Bodhivastu becomes the materialized, altruistic Enlightened Mind, Voice, and Body of everyone in the world who wishes to see peace prevail on Earth at this very moment, and radiates this energy unobstructedly throughout the ten directions and throughout the three times. As such, the stupa includes every person who participates in its creation, either directly or indirectly, and connects them to the greater purpose of true peace through their contributions, desire for change, and various forms of support.
Healing the planet through the correct building of a mandala stupa such as Bodhivastu is like putting a perfect acupuncture needle into the precisely chosen healing place. A healing arts center will be part of the Bodhivastu grounds in the future, where people can learn, practice, and preserve ancient healing arts in order to make them available throughout the world. The need for healing on a microcosmic and macrocosmic level has become critical to our survival. We must make a choice: perish or evolve.
