Ashtapatham Hastham is a brass hand of a Hindu deity holding a Trishul or trident. It is the substitute hand for Gods with and without Vigraham (statues) during festivals. This brass Hastham or sword hand is used for Alamkaram or statue adornment sans Vigraham (statue). In Hindu belief, the god does not always have to be fully formed; they might exist as a stone or metal sheet. With these brass Hastham and Padams, the deities are adorned and changed into their complete form in such circumstances. The Ashtapatham Hastham Hand is treasured for its spiritual importance as a vital aspect of Hindu devotion.

Symbol of Divine Power and Protection

This exquisite brass rendition of a divine hand, delicately holding a Trishul (trident), evokes a profound sense of spiritual energy and protective power. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this piece is a testament to traditional Indian artistry, designed to be a focal point in your sacred space or a cherished addition to your collection of ritualistic artifacts. The lustrous brass gleams, capturing the light and lending an aura of sanctity to its presence. ––––––––––––––––––

The Trishul: A Sacred Emblem

The trident, or Trishul, is one of the most significant weapons and symbols in Hinduism, most famously associated with Lord Shiva. It represents the three fundamental aspects of the divine: creation, preservation, and destruction. It is also believed to embody the three gunas (qualities) of nature – sattva, rajas, and tamas – and the three states of consciousness: waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. In the hands of a goddess, it signifies her power to dismantle negative forces, protect the virtuous, and maintain cosmic order. This hand, holding the Trishul aloft, embodies this potent divine feminine energy. ––––––––––––––––––

Craftsmanship and Significance

The skillful rendering of the hand, with its gracefully formed fingers and the subtle ornamentation on the wristband, speaks to the artisan's deep understanding of devotional iconography. The Trishul itself is depicted with sharp, defined prongs, symbolizing its piercing power against ignorance and evil. This piece is more than just a decorative item; it is a conduit for spiritual connection, a reminder of the divine forces that govern the universe and protect its devotees. It is ideally suited for puja rooms, meditation spaces, or as a statement piece that brings an element of sacred beauty and ancient wisdom into your home. Its radiant brass finish is not only visually appealing but also holds symbolic value, representing purity and auspiciousness.

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.
