The Essence of Dharma

This intricately crafted statue depicts the Lord Buddha in a moment of profound significance, radiating tranquility and wisdom. Seated in the lotus position, the quintessential posture for meditation and enlightenment, his serene expression invites contemplation. The lotus position itself is rich with symbolism; just as a lotus flower emerges from muddy waters to bloom in pristine beauty, it represents the journey from suffering to enlightenment. The artist has captured the subtle nuances of the Buddha's facial features, from the gentle curve of his lips to the slightly closed eyes, conveying a sense of inner peace and profound understanding. The elongated earlobes are a reminder of his princely past, symbolizing his renunciation of worldly possessions and his commitment to spiritual awakening.

Handcrafted Detail & Sacred Symbolism

Crafted from brass, this piece is a testament to the skill of Indian artisans, bearing the marks of handmade artistry. The use of brass is no accident; the metal holds a special significance in various spiritual traditions, often associated with strength, durability, and a connection to the divine. The statue is further enhanced with carefully placed inlays. The garments are beautifully adorned, and the lotus base is rendered in exquisite detail. These details enhance the overall aesthetic appeal but are also rich in symbolism, reminding us of the interconnectedness of all things and the path to enlightenment. The symbolic hand gestures, known as *mudras*, are of particular importance. Here, the Lord Buddha is depicted making a specific *mudra* associated with teaching and interpreting the Dharma, the cosmic law and path to liberation. One hand is raised in a gesture of explanation, while the other holds a vessel. This *mudra* invites the observer to reflect on the Buddha's teachings and to engage in their own journey of self-discovery. The flame held in one hand is not merely decorative. This is often a symbol of wisdom and enlightenment, radiating outwards and dispelling the darkness of ignorance. The statue rests upon a lotus pedestal. The lotus flower, arising from the muddy depths, blooming pure and untainted, has long been revered as a symbol of purity, spiritual awakening, and detachment from the material world. The intricate carvings upon the pedestal add a further layer of artistic complexity and spiritual depth. Every detail, from the material to the posture, to the *mudra*, has been carefully considered to create a work of art that is both aesthetically pleasing and spiritually meaningful. The statue serves as a powerful reminder of the Buddha's teachings and a source of inspiration for those seeking inner peace and enlightenment.

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.
