The Touchstone of Enlightenment

Behold this magnificent brass rendition of Lord Buddha in the Bhumisparsha mudra, a posture rich with spiritual significance. The Bhumisparsha mudra, often translated as the "Earth-touching gesture," symbolizes the very moment of Buddha's enlightenment. Legend tells us that as Siddhartha Gautama meditated beneath the Bodhi tree, he was assailed by Mara, the tempter, who sought to disturb his path to liberation. With his right hand gently resting on his knee and his fingertips touching the Earth, the Buddha called upon Mother Earth to bear witness to his virtue and steadfastness. This act not only dispelled Mara's distractions but also signified his deep connection to the earthly realm and his understanding of its impermanence. This exquisite statue, handcrafted with meticulous care in India, is a testament to the enduring artistic traditions of the subcontinent. The lustrous brass, polished to a warm gleam, captures the serene countenance of the awakened one. His eyes are gently closed, suggesting an inward journey towards ultimate truth, while a subtle smile plays on his lips, hinting at the profound peace he has attained. The intricate detailing extends to the ushnisha, the cranial protuberance signifying wisdom, and the urna, the dot on his forehead representing his spiritual sight.

A Garment of Divine Embellishment

The traditional robes of the Buddha are brought to life with vibrant embellishments. The flowing garment, rendered in a striking turquoise hue, is meticulously inlaid with a mosaic of colourful stones. Deep red and vibrant blue stones, interspersed with the turquoise, create a dazzling pattern that catches the light and draws the eye. These gems are further framed by intricate brass work, adorned with delicate motifs that speak of ancient artistry and spiritual symbolism. The red hues, often associated with passion, energy, and auspiciousness in Indian culture, juxtaposed with the calming turquoise, represent a harmonious balance of forces. The meticulous inlay work is not merely decorative; it suggests the preciousness and rarity of the Buddha's teachings and the profound transformation they offer. The lower garment, covering his crossed legs, is adorned in a rich, earthy red, further enhancing the vibrancy of the composition. His legs are gracefully folded in the lotus posture, a symbol of purity, spiritual growth, and detachment from worldly desires. The left hand rests in his lap, palm facing upwards, in the Dhyana mudra, the gesture of meditation, symbolizing concentration and the pursuit of inner peace. This duality of mudras – the Bhumisparsha on the right and the Dhyana on the left – encapsulates the essence of Buddha's journey: the arduous meditation leading to enlightenment, sealed by his profound connection to the world and his ultimate victory over illusion. This statue is not just an object of art but a powerful reminder of the path to inner peace and enlightenment, a sacred icon crafted to inspire and uplift.

How to keep a Brass statue well-maintained?

Brass statues are known and appreciated for their exquisite beauty and luster. The brilliant bright gold appearance of Brass makes it appropriate for casting aesthetic statues and sculptures. Brass is a metal alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc. This chemical composition makes brass a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material. Due to these properties, Brass statues and sculptures can be kept both indoors as well as outdoors. They also last for many decades without losing all their natural shine.

Brass statues can withstand even harsh weather conditions very well due to their corrosion-resistance properties. However, maintaining the luster and natural beauty of brass statues is essential if you want to prolong their life and appearance.

The best and simplest way to maintain a brass statue is to clean it at least twice a week using a soft cloth or cotton rag. This will prevent dust from accumulating on the surface. Dusting is especially important for outdoor statues since it is prone to dust accumulation much more than indoors.

To give a natural shine and luster to the statue, you may apply coconut or olive oil using cotton on every portion. You can use a toothbrush to get to the small crevices but do not be too harsh. This will make the brass statue appear fresh and new with a polished look.

In case you have a colored brass statue, you may apply mustard oil using a soft brush or clean cloth on the brass portion while for the colored portion of the statue, you may use coconut oil with a cotton cloth.

Brass idols of Hindu Gods and Goddesses are especially known for their intricate and detailed work of art. Nepalese sculptures are famous for small brass idols portraying Buddhist deities. These sculptures are beautified with gold gilding and inlay of precious or semi-precious stones. Religious brass statues can be kept at home altars. You can keep a decorative brass statue in your garden or roof to embellish the area and fill it with divinity.
