The Symbolism of Abhaya Mudra

This exquisitely crafted brass statue embodies the enlightened one in a moment of profound significance. The Buddha sits in the lotus position, a posture known as Padmasana, which symbolizes purity and spiritual awakening achieved through meditation. His right hand is raised in the Abhaya Mudra, a gesture that translates to "fearlessness." This is not simply a symbolic act but a powerful declaration of peace and protection offered to all beings. The Abhaya Mudra, it is believed, dispels fear, anxiety, and suffering, offering solace and reassurance to those who seek refuge in the teachings of the Buddha. It’s a reminder that liberation from suffering is possible through understanding and compassion. The Buddha's left hand rests gently in his lap, a gesture often associated with meditation and receptivity. Together, these hand gestures create a balance of outward protection and inner peace, reflecting the core of Buddhist philosophy.

Craftsmanship and Artistic Detail

The beauty of this statue is further enhanced by the intricate inlay work. Each colored stone and carefully placed piece of brass adds to the richness and depth of the sculpture. The contrast between the base brass and the brilliant inlay creates a stunning visual effect, drawing the eye and inviting contemplation. The robe, draped elegantly over the Buddha's shoulder, features a pattern of inlay, adding texture and visual interest. This method of inlay is a traditional practice, and the final product carries a distinct energy of time-honored traditions. The base upon which the Buddha sits is also meticulously detailed, with multiple tiers of inlaid patterns. This adds to the overall sense of stability and groundedness, symbolizing the solid foundation upon which spiritual practice is built.

The Story of the Buddha

Siddhartha Gautama, the historical Buddha, was a prince who renounced his life of luxury after witnessing suffering in the world. He embarked on a journey of self-discovery, meditating and seeking enlightenment until he reached a state of Nirvana. Through his teachings, he showed others the path to liberation from suffering, a path that emphasized compassion, mindfulness, and wisdom. Possessing a statue of Lord Buddha is a daily reminder of the path towards one's own enlightenment, encouraging peace, love, and serenity within oneself and in the surrounding 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.
