A Symbol of Healing and Compassion

This exquisite statue depicts the Medicine Buddha, also known as Bhaisajyaguru, a celestial Buddha who presides over the Eastern Pure Land of Lapis Lazuli. Revered for his healing powers and his ability to alleviate suffering, the Medicine Buddha is a central figure in Mahayana Buddhism. He is often invoked for physical and mental well-being, and his image serves as a potent reminder of the boundless compassion and wisdom of the enlightened mind. In Buddhist lore, it is said that the Medicine Buddha made twelve great vows to help sentient beings overcome illness, ignorance, and hardship. This magnificent representation captures the serene countenance and peaceful demeanor of the divine healer, inviting contemplation and offering solace.

Artistry and Auspicious Embellishments

Crafted in India, a land steeped in spiritual traditions, this statue showcases the pinnacle of traditional brass metalwork. The gleaming silver-toned brass forms the base of the figure, lending it a sense of timeless elegance. What truly sets this piece apart is its vibrant inlay work. The robe, draped artfully around the Buddha's form, is adorned with a mosaic of striking turquoise and red stones, bordered by intricate golden patterns. These colors are not merely decorative; turquoise is often associated with healing, protection, and wisdom, while red symbolizes life force and vital energy. The layered pedestal upon which the Medicine Buddha sits is also richly decorated, featuring a tapestry of swirling motifs and inlaid stones, all rendered in a harmonious palette of gold, blue, and the characteristic red and turquoise. The meticulous handcrafting ensures that each detail, from the gentle curl of the hair to the serene expression, is rendered with profound care.

The Medicine Buddha's Embrace

In his left hand, the Medicine Buddha holds a bowl of medicinal herbs, the Lapiz Lazuli nectar, which symbolizes his capacity to dispel the poisons of greed, hatred, and ignorance that lead to suffering. His right hand rests on his right knee, palm open in the gesture of giving, or boon-granting. This posture, combined with his tranquil gaze, radiates an aura of profound peace and unwavering support. The Medicine Buddha's teachings extend beyond physical ailments; he is believed to guide individuals towards spiritual healing and enlightenment, offering a path to overcome the "three poisons" of the mind. This statue serves as a powerful focal point for meditation and prayer, fostering an environment of healing and inner peace within your home or spiritual practice.

A Legacy of Craftsmanship

This substantial and artfully created brass statue is a testament to the enduring legacy of Indian craftsmanship. Each piece is handmade, ensuring that no two are exactly alike, imbuing it with a unique spiritual energy. The fusion of skilled metalwork with the vibrant inlay of semi-precious stones creates a piece that is not only a devotional object but also a stunning work of art. The scale of the statue makes it a commanding presence, suitable for altars, meditation spaces, or as a striking decorative element that brings a touch of sacred beauty and profound symbolism 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.
