Embodiment of Healing and Compassion

This exquisite brass statue depicts the Medicine Buddha, Bhaishajyaguru, a revered deity in Mahayana Buddhism known for his power to alleviate suffering and heal the sick. Seated in a meditative posture, his serene countenance radiates peace and boundless compassion. The intricate detailing of his robes, adorned with vibrant inlays of lapis lazuli, coral, and turquoise, speaks to the richness of Tibetan Buddhist artistry. The blue of lapis lazuli symbolizes the sky and the vastness of the universe, while red coral embodies vitality and protection, and turquoise signifies wisdom and good fortune.

The Physician of the East

The Medicine Buddha is the earthly manifestation of the transcendent power of all Buddhas to heal. Legend has it that upon his enlightenment, he made twelve vows, the most prominent of which was to relieve the suffering of all sentient beings, especially those afflicted by physical and mental illness. He is often depicted holding a stalk of the Arura plant, also known as myrobalan, in his left hand. This medicinal herb is considered a panacea in traditional Tibetan medicine, symbolizing the Medicine Buddha's ability to cure all diseases. His right hand is typically shown resting in his lap, palm upwards, holding a small bowl filled with nectar, representing the elixir of immortality and spiritual liberation.

A Masterpiece of Indian Craftsmanship

Handcrafted in India, this statue is a testament to the skill and dedication of artisans who have preserved traditional techniques for generations. The use of high-quality brass ensures its durability and allows for the detailed rendering of the Buddha's features and ornamentation. The meticulous inlay work, with each semi-precious stone carefully placed, adds a breathtaking dimension to the sculpture, making it a true work of art. This piece is not merely an object of devotion but also a decorative masterpiece that brings an aura of tranquility and spiritual depth to any space. It serves as a powerful reminder of the interconnectedness of physical and spiritual well-being, inviting contemplation and mindfulness.

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.
