The Wheel of Dharma Turns

This magnificent brass statue captures Lord Buddha in the Dharmachakra Mudra, the gesture signifying the setting into motion of the Wheel of Dharma. This seminal moment, occurring shortly after his enlightenment, marked the Buddha's first sermon at Sarnath, where he expounded upon the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. This mudra embodies the core of Buddhist teachings, representing the universal law and cosmic order that the Buddha revealed to humanity. The figure's serene countenance, with eyes gently closed in deep contemplation and a subtle smile gracing his lips, radiates an aura of profound peace and wisdom.

Masterful Craftsmanship and Symbolic Embellishments

Hand-cast from high-quality brass, this statue is a testament to the enduring legacy of Indian craftsmanship. The dual-toned finish, with its rich, dark body contrasted by the gleaming golden accents, adds a striking depth and visual appeal. The intricate detailing extends to the Buddha's robes, adorned with delicate patterns, and the ornate jewelry that graces his ears and shoulders. His curly hair, culminating in a ushnisha atop his head, symbolizes his enlightened consciousness. The base, also intricately carved, provides a stable and elegant foundation for the divine form, further enhancing its majestic presence. This piece is not merely a decorative item, but a sacred object imbued with spiritual significance.

A Beacon of Enlightenment

The Dharmachakra Mudra is deeply rooted in Buddhist cosmology. The "Wheel of Dharma" is often compared to the sun's wheel, bringing light and dispelling darkness, or the king's chariot wheel, symbolizing the unstoppable momentum of the Buddha's teachings. The two hands meeting in the center symbolize the union of wisdom and compassion, the ultimate attainment of Buddhahood. In Buddhist mythology, it is said that when the Buddha first turned the Wheel of Dharma, the very earth trembled with joy, and celestial beings rejoiced. This statue, with its imposing stature and timeless pose, serves as a powerful reminder of that transformative event and the enduring path to liberation that the Buddha laid out for all beings. It is an ideal centerpiece for any meditation space, altar, or as a distinguished addition to a collector's sacred art collection, bringing an atmosphere of tranquility and spiritual contemplation into any environment.

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.
