The Great Passing: A Moment of Serenity

In Buddhist tradition, the Parinirvana represents the ultimate state of liberation and release, the final departure of the Buddha from the cycle of rebirth. This is not simply death, but a transcendence beyond suffering, a merging with the absolute. The scene is most commonly depicted with Buddha lying on his right side, serene and composed, awaiting the moment of his final breath. This handmade brass statue captures that moment. The peaceful countenance, the gentle repose – all elements are meticulously crafted to evoke a sense of tranquility and detachment from worldly concerns. It is a visual representation of the Buddhist ideal of letting go and embracing impermanence.

Craftsmanship and Materials

Skilled artisans in India have painstakingly shaped this brass statue, employing time-honored techniques to capture the nuances of the Buddha’s form and the symbolism of Parinirvana. The use of brass lends a sense of weight and permanence to the piece, while the contrasting finishes – the golden face and limbs against the darker robe – create visual interest and emphasize the divine nature of the Buddha. This is not a mass-produced item, but a unique work of art, imbued with the spirit and skill of the craftsperson. Every curve, every fold in the robe, and every detail of the hair is meticulously rendered, reflecting a dedication to preserving the artistic traditions of India.

Symbolism and Significance

The reclining position itself is laden with meaning. It represents not only the physical passing of the Buddha but also the profound wisdom and equanimity he possessed even in his final moments. Some interpretations suggest that the right-sided posture symbolizes the final teaching he gave, a reminder to his disciples to maintain mindfulness and strive for enlightenment. The platform he rests upon is adorned with inscriptions, and floral patterns. Displaying this statue serves as a reminder of the Buddha’s teachings, an invitation to cultivate inner peace, and a tangible connection to the rich spiritual heritage of Buddhism. Consider it not just as décor but as an inspiration.

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.
