The Buddhism for religious functional structure have a monk, many believer, and a buddhist temple to hold worship in front of Buddha. The pagoda had been established for sarira enshrinement when the Buddhism was spread to the East Asia. A monk had been established buddhist priest's funerals and the construction of Stone Stupa and Tab-bi which were built after funerals. Incidentally, The Stupa for a lay Buddhist had been established to the related temple in the East Asia. They have deep the merciful heart of Buddha and contribute to Buddhist rituals and services. Especially, the China and Japan had been many established to the lay Buddhist stupa. But, Scarcely anything in our Korea. There was practically nothing left in ancient Korea. The lay Buddhist stupa in Korea is presumed since the late Korea Dynasty. There are lots of the lay Buddhist stupa in the Chosun Dynasty. According to the historical records about lay Buddhist, the lay Buddhist stupa had been continuously constructed. But,the report of investigation and study about the lay Buddhist stupa is low. According to the historical records and relics, the lay Buddhist stupa had been established to the Korea Dynasty. They had been many established since the late Chosun Dynasty. The monks stupa had been many established to the same time. Originally, the stone stupa had been limitedly constructed. I think that this change see it in a new light. That find a new meaning in the stupa. The people deal with a stupa more memorial building than honorable building. Most of the owners of Stone Stupa were honored people after death. They were highly respected. Also, when they died, the people heavily supported the funeral and the construction of Stone Stupa. The lay Buddhist of deep heart of Buddha received much recognition alike the monk. The lay Buddhist Stone Stupa great give an example in the change of Buddhism and Buddhist Arts.
