The Enlightened One

Crafted in the heart of India, this statue captures the essence of Siddhartha Gautama, the historical Buddha, during his pivotal moments of teaching and enlightenment. The figure sits in the lotus position, a posture signifying stability, serenity, and profound spiritual insight. The lotus, arising from muddy waters, symbolizes the journey from suffering to enlightenment, mirroring Buddha's own transformative path. The serene expression on the Buddha's face invites contemplation and peace, a reminder of the tranquility that lies within each of us, a peace attainable through mindful living and the pursuit of wisdom.

The Hand Gestures of Teaching

The Buddha's hand gestures, or mudras, are not mere decoration but are integral to conveying his message. The right hand is raised in the Abhaya Mudra, a gesture of fearlessness and protection. It is a symbol of reassurance, offering blessings and dispelling fear from those who seek solace. His left hand rests in his lap, holding a begging bowl, a reminder of his renunciation of worldly possessions and his reliance on alms during his ascetic journey. This gesture symbolizes detachment and the importance of simplicity in the pursuit of spiritual growth.

Royal Robes in Blue

Traditionally, Buddhist robes are simple and saffron-colored, representing humility and detachment from worldly vanities. However, this statue portrays the Buddha adorned in a stunning blue robe intricately inlaid with vibrant patterns. While the blue color may not be traditionally associated with Buddhist robes, it evokes associations with the vastness of the sky and the boundless nature of enlightenment. Blue can also represent wisdom, knowledge, and truth – essential components of the Dharma. The meticulously crafted inlay work speaks to the dedication and skill of the artisans who created this piece. The intricate patterns, featuring circles of red and teal, add a layer of visual complexity and symbolize the interconnectedness of all things. The robe itself is not merely a garment but a visual representation of the profound teachings that the Buddha imparted to the world.

Handcrafted with Devotion

Every detail of this statue, from the serene expression to the intricate details of the robes, reflects the artisans' deep reverence for the Buddha and his teachings. Handmade in India, this statue embodies the rich artistic traditions of the region, where the creation of sacred images is considered a spiritual practice in itself. The use of brass lends the statue a timeless quality, ensuring it will be a cherished object for generations to come. The statue rests upon an intricately designed lotus pedestal. Each petal is carefully crafted, providing a stable and beautiful base for the Enlightened One. The statue serves as a reminder of the potential for inner peace, wisdom, and compassion that resides within us all, and the path to enlightenment is within our grasp.

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.
