Embodiment of Compassion and Longevity: The White Tara

This exquisite brass statue depicts White Tara, a revered bodhisattva in Tibetan Buddhism, symbolizing compassionate action, longevity, and eternal youth. Her serene presence radiates peace and a profound sense of well-being. She is often invoked for protection against illness, fear, and suffering, and her imagery is a source of comfort and inspiration to practitioners worldwide. According to legend, Tara emerged from a tear shed by the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara when he contemplated the suffering of the world. This tear, falling to the earth, blossomed into a lotus flower from which White Tara arose. Her manifestation as a female deity underscores the feminine aspect of enlightened wisdom and compassion. She is often depicted with seven eyes – one on her forehead, and one on each palm and sole of her feet – enabling her to see and respond to all sentient beings in need.

Artistic Craftsmanship and Iconographic Details

Handmade in India, this 14-inch statue is a testament to the rich tradition of Buddhist iconography and metal craftsmanship. The use of brass, polished to a soft sheen, lends a timeless quality to the piece. The intricate detailing extends from the elaborate crown adorning her head, symbolizing her enlightened status, to the flowing robes and delicate jewelry that adorn her form. White Tara is typically shown seated in the lotus position (padmasana), with her right leg extended downwards, symbolizing her readiness to descend and aid beings in distress. Her left hand holds the stem of a lotus flower, often depicted with two blossoms – one in bud, one in full bloom – representing the past, present, and future, and her mastery over time. Her right hand is often shown in the gesture of boon-granting (varada mudra), bestowing blessings and fulfilling wishes. The base of the statue, a multi-tiered lotus throne, signifies purity and spiritual elevation, elevating the deity above worldly concerns. The combination of silver and gold finishes on the brass enhances the visual appeal and emphasizes the sacred nature of the deity.

A Symbol of Hope and Spiritual Practice

The presence of a White Tara statue in a home or meditation space can serve as a constant reminder of the power of compassion and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment. It is believed that contemplating her image and reciting her mantra can help overcome obstacles, promote healing, and cultivate a peaceful mind. This beautifully crafted piece offers not only an object of devotion but also a work of art that embodies deep spiritual significance and cultural heritage, making it a cherished addition for collectors and practitioners alike.

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.
