The Touch of Enlightenment: A Bhumisparsha Buddha

This magnificent brass statue captures the profound moment of Buddha's enlightenment. The Bhumisparsha mudra, or "earth-touching gesture," is a powerful symbol of his victory over Mara, the demon who tempted him with worldly pleasures and fears. According to Buddhist lore, as Siddhartha sat beneath the Bodhi tree, Mara appeared and challenged his right to claim enlightenment, asserting that the seat was his. In response, Siddhartha gently extended his right hand, his fingers touching the earth, calling upon the Earth Goddess to bear witness to his attainment. This act signifies his unwavering resolve and the grounding of his spiritual truth in the very fabric of existence.

A Masterpiece of Tibetan Craftsmanship

Crafted in India with meticulous attention to detail, this statue is a testament to the enduring legacy of Tibetan Buddhist art. The rich brass medium lends a warm, earthy tone that resonates with the spiritual nature of the subject. The robes are adorned with intricate carvings, depicting subtle patterns that add depth and texture to the form. Each fold of the fabric, from the draped garment over his left shoulder to the precisely rendered pleats around his seated posture, speaks of the artisan's skill and devotion. The serene expression on the Buddha's face, with eyes gently closed in meditation, invites contemplation and a sense of inner peace. The coiled hair, culminating in the ushnisha, a cranial protuberance symbolizing his wisdom, is rendered with characteristic Tibetan artistry.

Symbolism and Significance

The lotus pedestal upon which the Buddha sits is another powerful symbol in Buddhism. The lotus flower, which rises pure and beautiful from muddy waters, represents spiritual awakening and transcendence over worldly desires. The elaborately carved base, adorned with decorative motifs, further elevates the statue, signifying the sacredness of the space and the lofty principles it embodies. The mudra itself is a visual sermon, reminding practitioners that enlightenment is not a distant aspiration but a realization accessible through inner strength and connection to the fundamental truths of existence. This sculpture serves as a focal point for meditation, a source of inspiration, and a tangible connection to the timeless teachings of the Buddha.

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.
