Monolithic Domes
•A monolithic dome (from Greek mono- and -lithic, meaning "one stone") is a structure cast in a one-piece form. The form may be permanent or temporary and may or may not remain part of the finished structure.
•Forms have been made using nearly every common structural material including air pressure supported fabric.

Completion of the main dome
The first and main dome was completed in October 2006 and bone relics of Gautama Buddha were enshrined in the central keystone of the dome on 29th October 2006, making it the world's largest structure containing relics of the Buddha. The relics were originally found in the stupa at Sanchi. They had been donated by the Mahabodhi Society of India and the prime minister of Sri Lanka to be kept at the Global Vipassana Pagoda.
