Dussa-thūpa

A thūpa built in the Brahma-world by Ghaṭīkāra, enshrining the garments worn by the Buddha at the time of his Renunciation.

It was built of gems and was twelve leagues high (Dāṭhāvaṃsa, vs.35).

Among the wonders performed by Bhaddaji one was to carry it on his outstretched palm and show it to the multitude. Mhv.xxxi.11; MT.562.
