The Earth-Touching Gesture: A Symbol of Enlightenment

This exquisite brass sculpture captures the profound moment of the Buddha's enlightenment. The figure is depicted in the Bhumisparsha Mudra, the earth-touching gesture, where the right hand rests on the right knee with fingertips pointing towards the earth. This iconic pose signifies the Buddha's victory over Mara, the demon who tempted him with worldly pleasures and fear just before his awakening. Legend has it that the Buddha called upon the Earth to bear witness to his steadfastness and his right to achieve enlightenment, and the Earth responded with a tremor, solidifying his claim and his connection to the fundamental truths of existence.

A Masterpiece of Indian Craftsmanship

Handcrafted in India, this statue is a testament to the skill and dedication of traditional artisans. The rich brass is meticulously sculpted, showcasing the serene countenance of the Buddha, with his closed eyes conveying inner peace and profound contemplation. The traditional monastic robe is adorned with vibrant inlays of turquoise, coral, and lapis lazuli, meticulously set within intricate brass filigree. These precious stones are not merely decorative; they hold symbolic significance in Buddhist traditions, representing various virtues and cosmic elements. The detailed ornamentation on the robe and the base further elevates this piece from a mere depiction to a sacred artifact, rich in cultural and spiritual meaning.

Invoking Serenity and Wisdom

The earthy tones of the brass, combined with the jewel-like hues of the inlays, create a visually captivating and spiritually resonant piece. The Buddha's posture, with legs crossed in a meditative pose, exudes an aura of calm and stability. The earth-touching gesture serves as a powerful reminder of grounding, resilience, and the ultimate triumph of wisdom over ignorance and illusion. This sculpture is more than just an object of art; it is an invitation to stillness, introspection, and the pursuit of inner peace. Its presence can transform any space into a sanctuary, fostering an atmosphere of mindfulness and spiritual awareness. Imagine this piece gracing your meditation room, altar, or a quiet corner of your home, radiating its tranquil energy and profound message.

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.
