The Amitabha Stupa & Peace park, nestled among the pines and the red rock formations, is a great place to visit in Sedona, Arizona. Stupas are filled to the very top with hundreds of sacred objects. Hiking to this stupa is very easy and the path is well laid out. With colorful flag prayers fluttering in the breeze, the experience can be enhanced when we start our hike chanting the prayers,
“Om Mani Padme Hum!”
&
“Buddham Sharanam Gacchami!
Dhammam Sharanam Gacchami!
Sangham Sharanam Gacchami!”.
The Amitabha Stupa contains these offerings: sacred mandalas for prosperity, well-being and peace which antidote specific causes of suffering, close to a billion mantras for peace, compassion, and the pacification of negativity, precious medicines from around the world, and earth from every continent.
Within the Amitabha Stupa there is also a sacred relic from the Buddha of our time, Shakyamuni (Gautama) Buddha! There are numerous other extraordinary relics from past living Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. These relics give the Amitabha Stupa its profound potency to alter the karmic fabric for all who stand in its presence. Experience serenity and tranquility when you stand before the majestic Amitabha Stupa and the statue of Buddha. Horizontal Prayer Flags (Lung Ta – Wild Horse in Tibetan) seen here are used to promote peace, compassion, strength, and wisdom.
Happy Hiking Trails & Exploring! 😊
