The Embodiment of Wisdom and Compassion

This magnificent brass statue captures the serene presence of Shakyamuni Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, in a moment of profound teaching. Seated in the lotus posture, his form exudes tranquility and spiritual power. The intricate craftsmanship, a hallmark of Indian artistry, is evident in every detail, from the delicate curls of his hair to the subtle expression of enlightenment on his face. The statue is rendered in radiant brass, a material revered for its purity and its ability to hold and radiate divine energy, making this piece not just a work of art, but a sacred object.

The Teaching Mudra and the Lotus Blossom

The Buddha's right hand is raised in the Abhaya Mudra, a gesture of fearlessness and protection. This mudra signifies that the Buddha is offering solace, reassurance, and dispelling all anxieties and obstacles. His left hand rests in his lap in the Dhyana Mudra, the gesture of meditation, symbolizing concentration and wisdom. The combination of these mudras represents the Buddha's complete mastery over both internal and external challenges, a state achievable through diligent practice. The robe draped over his shoulders is adorned with an exquisite lotus motif. The lotus, a powerful symbol in Buddhist tradition, emerges from muddy waters yet remains pure and untainted, representing the Buddha's own spiritual purity and his ability to rise above the defilements of the world to attain enlightenment.

Sacred Inscriptions and Artistic Heritage

The reverse of the statue is inscribed with the sacred mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum." This ancient Tibetan Buddhist mantra is considered the essence of all Buddhist teachings, embodying the compassion and wisdom of all Buddhas. Its recitation is believed to purify negative karma, cultivate loving-kindness, and lead to spiritual awakening. This detail adds a layer of profound spiritual significance to the already awe-inspiring depiction of the Buddha. Handcrafted in India, this statue is a testament to the enduring artistic traditions and deep spiritual heritage of the land where Buddhism was born. The meticulous work of the artisans brings to life a timeless representation of the Awakened One, inviting peace and contemplation into any space it graces.

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.
