The Marvelous Dharma Discourse

In The Marvelous Dharma Discourse, the Buddha teaches Ānanda that creating even a tiny stūpa for a buddha who has entered parinirvāṇa generates more merit than offering the entire universe to all stream enterers, once-returners, non-returners, arhats, pratyekabuddhas, and the saṅgha in the four directions.
