A Symbol of Enlightenment and Earthly Witness

This magnificent brass statue captures Lord Buddha in the powerful Bhumisparsha Mudra, a gesture of profound significance in Buddhist iconography. Known as the "Earth-touching gesture," this mudra symbolizes the moment of Buddha's enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, where he called upon the Earth goddess to bear witness to his attainment and refute the temptations of Mara. With his right hand gracefully resting on his right knee, fingers pointing downwards towards the earth, and his left hand in his lap, this posture embodies unwavering resolve, grounding, and the triumph of wisdom over ignorance. The intricate inlay work adorning the robe and seat of the Buddha adds an unparalleled layer of beauty and symbolism. Vibrant tesserae of turquoise, lapis lazuli, and carnelian are meticulously set into the brass, creating a rich tapestry of color that evokes the celestial and the earthly realms. The turquoise hues speak of clarity and communication, while the deep blues of lapis lazuli represent wisdom and truth. The warm reds of carnelian symbolize vitality and courage. These precious stones, often associated with protective qualities and spiritual connection in various cultures, enhance the meditative and devotional appeal of the statue.

Craftsmanship and Devotion from India

Handmade in India, this statue is a testament to the country's rich heritage of artisanal craftsmanship and spiritual devotion. Each element, from the serene expression on Buddha's face to the precise placement of every inlaid stone, is imbued with the skill and dedication of master artisans. The use of high-quality brass ensures durability and a timeless sheen, allowing this sacred object to grace your home or meditation space for generations. The weight and substantial feel of the brass speak to its quality and permanence. In Buddhist lore, the Bhumisparsha Mudra is particularly important as it signifies Buddha's overcoming of worldly desires and illusions. As he sat in meditation, Mara, the personification of temptation, sent his armies and seduced him with power, pleasure, and fear. Buddha remained steadfast, and in this gesture, he called upon the Earth to witness his victory. The Earth goddess, Vasudhara, is said to have responded, confirming Buddha's worthiness and his imminent enlightenment. This statue serves as a constant reminder of the power of inner strength, perseverance, and the ultimate triumph of spiritual realization. Its presence can inspire introspection, cultivate a sense of peace, and deepen one's connection to the path of enlightenment.

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.
