Solution
Tathagata
Explanation:
The Buddha was also known as Tathagata. He told Ananda that it didn't matter to him if his earthly remnants were honoured. He emphasised the significance of one's good deeds. Stupas should be placed on sacred sites. If someone laid garlands or perfume on them and praised them, he would gain not only peace of mind but also profit and joy.
