SPHERE

The sphere is like the sacred and divine form of space. It is the final stage in the transformation of energy that follows a divine purpose. The sphere is the most efficient form to store and spread the energy. All planets and stars follow the same, as if they have a shared code of consciousness. This transformation is a manifestation of a common destiny.

Parting in matter,Reunion in spirit

We believe that death is a parting in the material world, while a memorial ceremony is a reunion in the spiritual world. People recall their lives with the dead, talk about their present lives, and create a reunion with the dead. People humbly put the ashes into a clear spring, where the current leads people through separation and flows into a waterfall into

This is a great project; such a tremendous idea; just probably the center area can be more specific in terms of the design, but good project in general.

The concept and the design outcome is very interesting, The contemporary or even modern design is well balanced with the use of traditional material and infusing it with the traditional stupa works well with the concept of integrating the past , present and future. your presentation skills are good. i feel that if you would have followed the height restrictions then you would have come out with an interesting design.
