An Emblem of Divine Birth and Auspicious Beginnings

This exquisite brass statue captures the sacred moment of Maya Devi, the mother of Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha. Her graceful form, poised in a dance-like posture, evokes the divine joy and serenity that accompanied the birth of the enlightened one. In her raised hand, she symbolically holds a branch of a tree, a potent symbol of fertility, growth, and the divine life force. This gesture is deeply rooted in the legend of Maya Devi's immaculate conception and the miraculous birth, which is said to have occurred while she was walking in the Lumbini Grove, grasping a Sal tree branch. The statue is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of India, meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans.

Artistry and Spiritual Significance

The statue is crafted from lustrous brass, a metal revered for its auspiciousness and durability in Indian art and religious iconography. The vibrant inlay work, featuring a rich palette of red and green stones, adds a striking visual dimension, enhancing the divine aura of the deity. These colors are not merely decorative; they are often associated with prosperity, life, and spiritual energy in various cultural traditions. The intricate detailing extends to her ornate headdress, delicate jewelry, and the serene expression on her face, all of which contribute to the statue's profound spiritual resonance. Each element has been carefully rendered to reflect the reverence and devotion associated with Maya Devi.

A Symbol of Purity and Enlightenment

Maya Devi's story is central to the narrative of Buddhism, representing the purity of the vessel chosen to carry the Bodhisattva. Her grace and the auspicious circumstances surrounding Siddhartha's birth are seen as preludes to the immense wisdom and compassion that the Buddha would later bestow upon the world. This sculpture serves as a powerful reminder of the sacredness of life's beginnings and the potential for enlightenment that resides within all beings. It is an object of devotion for Buddhists and a beautiful piece of art for anyone who appreciates the confluence of spiritual symbolism and masterful craftsmanship. The posture, with one hand raised and the other in a gesture of blessing or offering, signifies her divine role and the unfolding of a momentous event in spiritual history.

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.
