A stupa (from Sanskrit: m., स्तूप, stūpa, Sinhalese: ස්ථූපය, Pāli: थुप "thūpa", literally meaning "heap") is a mound-like structure containing Buddhist relics, typically the remains of Buddha, used by Buddhists as a place of worship. After "stupa", "chorten" is the most commonly encountered English term. The term "reliquary" is sometimes used, after a Christian functional equivalent. Stupas are an ancient form of mandala.
The stupa is the oldest Buddhist religious monument and was originally only a simple mound of mud or clay to cover relics of the Buddha (cetiya). After the parinirvana of the Buddha, his remains were cremated and the ashes divided and buried under eight stupas with two further stupas encasing the urn and the embers. Little is known about these early stupas, particularly since it has not been possible to identify the original ten monuments. However, some later stupas, such as at Sarnath and Sanchi, seem to be embellishments of earlier mounds.

Ronnie's arrived with his Radio
He carries it everywhere he goes,
And talk about knowing your airwaves
...Ronnie'll name a few
Nicholas came with his cockatoo... too,
Which is really a pigeon but his heart would stop tickin'
if he ever knew.
'Cos everybody needs somebody (sometime)
I'm still needing you
CHORUS
I've been spun and spin-dried
but still the tears fall from my eyes.
I've been spun but I'm cry-dyed
do me a favour and wring me.
I've been spun and spin-dried
but still the tears fall from my eyes.
I've been spun but I'm cry-dyed
do me a favour and wring me... sometime
Little Linda's got a way with men
And so far she's got away with about nine or ten
'Cos everybody needs somebody (sometime)
I'm still needing you
CHORUS
I've been spun and spin-dried
but still the tears fall from my eyes.
I've been spun but I'm cry-dyed
do me a favour and wring me.
I've been spun and spin-dried
but still the tears fall from my eyes.
I've been spun but I'm cry-dyed
