| The
relics of the Buddha and his disciples are said to confirm
the results of dhamma practice. However it is difficult to
indicate the level of the attainment as there are a lot of
opinions about this amongst monks and laity. Therefore, not
wanting to go along with any point of view in particular,
we would like to use the word, “Savaka-dhatu” or “Relics of
his disciples” instead of “Arahant-dhutu” except for the Arahants
who were alive in the Buddha’s period because they were admired
by the Lord of Buddha for their practice. And in some parts
we will use the word “Dhatu“ instead of “Relics“ as there
are differences in physical charactaristicswhich are obviously
seen.
All
of the information in this website comes from the various
sources such as the Tipitaka, the commentary, the textbooks
or trustworthy people. There might be something different
from other books or we may have added more information which
is not shown in any books or cut out some stories which have
no references, such as the stories of Buddha‘s relics which
were not in any reference book or have no references to support
them. I have never believed that these were not Buddha’s relics,
and similarly for relics which not in any reference book.
However, anybody who doesn’t believe in these might be biased.
I
believe that this website can help you understand more the
relics of the Buddha and his disciples. However, nothing is
perfect, so as concerns any mistakes, I would take responsibility
and apologize, and would be grateful for any comment via the
