The Moment of Enlightenment

This meticulously crafted sculpture captures a pivotal moment in the life of Siddhartha Gautama, the historical Buddha. Seated in the lotus position, the figure embodies serenity and profound understanding. The elegant silver hue of the brass lends a sense of ethereal calm, while the vibrant adornments add depth and richness to the representation. Every detail, from the tightly coiled hair representing the wisdom accumulated through lifetimes, to the gentle curve of the lips, speaks to the enlightened state achieved after years of dedicated practice and unwavering focus.

Bhumisparsha Mudra: Calling the Earth as Witness

The defining feature of this piece is the "Bhumisparsha Mudra," often translated as "earth-touching gesture." The right hand extends downward, fingers reaching towards the earth, while the left hand rests in the lap, often holding a bowl. This mudra commemorates the moment just before Siddhartha attained enlightenment. As Mara, the demon of illusion and temptation, challenged Siddhartha's right to Buddhahood, claiming that only he and his army of demons could attest to his worthiness, Siddhartha touched the earth with his right hand. In that instant, the Earth Goddess herself arose to testify to the countless acts of merit and sacrifice that Siddhartha had performed over many lifetimes, validating his claim to enlightenment. This gesture symbolizes unshakable resolve, unwavering faith, and the power of truth. It's a powerful reminder that even in the face of doubt and adversity, one can find strength within oneself and in the natural world to overcome obstacles and realize one's full potential. It also showcases the intimate connection between the Buddha and the Earth, emphasizing the importance of harmony with nature.

A Timeless Symbol

Handmade in India, this brass sculpture showcases the skill and artistry passed down through generations. The meticulous attention to detail highlights the rich cultural and spiritual heritage embedded within the Buddhist tradition. Displaying this piece in your home or meditation space serves as a constant reminder of the Buddha's teachings on compassion, mindfulness, and the path to inner peace. It is an invitation to reflect on your own journey of self-discovery and to cultivate the qualities of wisdom, serenity, and unwavering determination. The addition of vibrant color through carefully inlaid stones is a testament to the enduring beauty and relevance of Buddhist art.

Auspicious Presence

The bowl held in the left hand symbolizes renunciation and detachment from material possessions. Overall, the statue serves as a visual reminder of the possibility of overcoming obstacles, achieving inner peace, and finding enlightenment within oneself.

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.
