After the cremation of Buddha, small parts of Buddha's had been dispersed to the whole world of Buddhism. There were mysterious things happened after cremation. Small balls were found after cremation. It was named Sarira. I heard Sarira meant the body of the dead from Steemians living in India. Anyway, in Buddhist countries, Buddha's Sarira is believed as the most sacred symbol in Buddhism. So Korean monks in ancient times were eager to get Sariras from India.
In this Ansimsa temple, Buddha's sarira was believed to be preserved here.
Buddha's sarira was located behind of Daewungjeon Hall.
Buddha's teeth and some parts looking like ball were preserved in the Bell-like Stone Stupa.
Around the Stupa, the sculptures looking like soldiers were standing at the four directions to protect the Stupa
It was not allowed to get closer. I needed to photograph from far away.
