The Immovable Witness: A Crowned Buddha in Bhumisparsha Mudra

This exquisite brass sculpture captures a pivotal moment in the Buddha's journey to enlightenment, frozen in a posture of profound power and serene resolve. The Buddha sits in the traditional lotus position, his body radiating a calm strength. Adorning his head is an elaborate, multi-tiered crown, a testament to his royal lineage and his supreme status as a spiritual sovereign. The crown itself is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, intricately detailed with patterns that speak of ancient artistry and devotion. The most striking feature of this piece is the mudra, the symbolic hand gesture known as Bhumisparsha. The right hand is extended downwards, palm facing inward, with fingertips gently touching the earth. This gesture, often translated as "earth-touching" or "calling the earth to witness," commemorates the Buddha's victory over Mara, the demon who sought to tempt him just before his awakening. As Mara unleashed illusions and temptations, the Bodhisattva remained steadfast, touching the earth and calling upon it to bear witness to his purity, his resolve, and his right to attain Buddhahood. The earth, in Buddhist cosmology, is a powerful symbol of stability, resilience, and ultimate truth. By touching it, the Buddha asserts that his enlightenment is not a matter of personal achievement alone, but a fundamental truth recognized by the very fabric of existence.

A Royal Awakening and Celestial Ornamentation

The crowned aspect of this Buddha signifies his princely origins as Siddhartha Gautama, who renounced his life of luxury and privilege to seek spiritual liberation for all sentient beings. Even in his enlightened state, the iconography acknowledges his past and his profound understanding of the human condition, having experienced the spectrum of worldly existence. The delicate ornaments that adorn his neck, wrists, and ears further enhance his regal appearance, reflecting a deep reverence for his spiritual authority. The silver inlay work that highlights these ornaments and the borders of his robe adds a touch of subtle brilliance, drawing the eye to the details of his divine form. This handcrafted statue is not merely an object of art; it is an embodiment of spiritual narrative and profound symbolism. Each detail, from the gentle curve of his brow to the grounding gesture of his hand, has been meticulously rendered by skilled artisans. The warmth of the brass, enhanced by the intricate silver embellishments, creates a piece that is both visually captivating and spiritually resonant. Displaying this Buddha in your home or sacred space can serve as a constant reminder of inner strength, the unwavering pursuit of truth, and the ultimate triumph of compassion and wisdom over illusion and adversity. It invites contemplation on one's own path to awakening and the enduring power of commitment.

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.
