The stars have 8-points and in the middle like the 8-spokes of the Dharma Chakra. Appropriate? :)
Above: Folding parts of the 5-tier stupa with incense papers printed on both sides with Usnisa Vijaya Dharani. Pure Karma printed these in colours of the 5 elements! (Replenishing stock of 5-tier stupas!)
Look at the above paper stupa, you see from the bottom as GM Lu said: Great earth 地大 ~ yellow, then water ~ white, then fire ~ red, then wind ~ green and void ~ blue!
在呈立体状时,多层的黄色立方体、白色球体、红色锥状体、绿色半球体和融溶的漂浮滴状物分别代表 地、水、火、风、空 “五大”。
在密宗里,In tantrayana,
黄色梵文字符“Lam”代表地,Yellow ~ Earth
白色梵文字符“Vam”代表水,White ~ Water
红色梵文字符“Ram”代表火,Red ~ Fire
绿色梵文字符“Yam”代表风,Green ~ Wind
而蓝色梵文字符“Hum”代表空。Blue ~ Void
五大成就 ~ 息增怀诛宝
5 Great Achievements ~
白 White - 息 Appease or purify,
黄 Yellow - 增 Enhance or increase,
红 Red - 怀 Caring or affinity,
蓝 Blue - 诛 Restrain or suppress (One's own non-virtue or unwholesome thoughts),
绿 Green - 宝All dharma treasures or Buddha's wisdoms.
Diligence = Know what you are doing and WHY, at all times!
Cheers all
