The Earth-Touching Gesture: A Symbol of Enlightenment

This magnificent brass statue captures Lord Buddha in the profound Bhumisparsha Mudra, or the Earth-Touching Gesture. This particular mudra holds immense significance in Buddhist iconography, representing the very moment of Buddha's enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. It is said that as Siddhartha meditated, Mara, the demon king of desire, sent forth his temptations and distractions. Buddha, with an unwavering resolve, extended his right hand to touch the earth, calling upon the earth itself to bear witness to his attainment of perfect wisdom and his victory over the illusions of the material world. The earth, in its silent strength, validated his enlightenment.

An Ode to Craftsmanship and Spiritual Depth

Handmade in India, this sculpture is a testament to the enduring traditions of metalwork and the deep spiritual heritage it embodies. The choice of brass as the medium lends the statue a timeless quality, its weight and texture conveying a sense of gravitas and permanence. The patina applied to the brass gives it an antique, almost ethereal appearance, reminiscent of ancient relics discovered in sacred sites. Every detail, from the serene expression on Buddha's face to the intricate folds of his robes and the delicate ornamentation of the lotus base, has been rendered with meticulous care by skilled artisans. This is not merely a decorative object but a vessel of spiritual energy, crafted to inspire contemplation and devotion.

The Lotus Throne: A Symbol of Purity and Growth

The statue rests upon a beautifully sculpted lotus base. The lotus, a flower that rises from the muddy depths to bloom in pristine beauty above the water, is a potent symbol in Buddhism and other Eastern philosophies. It represents purity, spiritual awakening, and the potential for growth and transcendence even amidst the challenges of worldly existence. The elaborate detailing of the lotus petals, highlighted with accents of gold, further elevates the divinity of the depicted Buddha, signifying his pure and enlightened state, unblemished by the defilements of the world. This throne of transformation provides a grounding, yet aspirational, foundation for the enlightened one.

Invoking Serenity and Wisdom

The Bhumisparsha Mudra is a powerful reminder of the strength found in truth, perseverance, and the connection to the fundamental grounding of reality. Having this statue in your home or sacred space can serve as a constant source of inspiration, encouraging the cultivation of inner peace, steadfast determination, and the pursuit of wisdom. It invites a moment of pause, a reminder to face life's challenges with the same unwavering resolve that Siddhartha demonstrated on his path to enlightenment. The presence of this exquisite brass sculpture can transform any environment into a sanctuary of peace and spiritual contemplation.

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.
