The Victorious Buddha

This exquisite brass statue captures a pivotal moment in the spiritual journey of Siddhartha Gautama, the one who would become the Buddha. The sculpture depicts him in the Mara Vijaya Mudra, also known as the Bhumisparsha Mudra, a gesture of touching the earth. This powerful pose symbolizes the Buddha's enlightenment and his victory over the temptations and illusions presented by Mara, the demon king, who sought to deter him from attaining spiritual awakening. As the story goes, Mara unleashed his armies of desire, fear, and doubt upon the meditating Bodhisattva. In response, the Buddha remained steadfast, extending his right hand to touch the earth, calling upon Mother Earth to bear witness to his unwavering resolve and his worthiness of enlightenment. This act signifies his humility, his connection to the earthly realm, and his deep understanding of the transient nature of worldly distractions.

A Symbol of Triumph and Steadfastness

The Bhumisparsha Mudra is one of the most profound and significant gestures in Buddhist iconography. It represents not just a personal triumph but a universal victory of wisdom over ignorance, compassion over greed, and peace over discord. The Buddha's calm and serene expression, even in the face of such profound spiritual adversity, conveys an aura of deep peace and unshakeable strength. This posture serves as a constant reminder to practitioners to remain grounded in their spiritual practice, to face their own inner demons with courage, and to find solace in the truth of their inner nature. It's a gesture that resonates with anyone striving for inner peace and clarity amidst the challenges of life.

Craftsmanship and Heritage

Handmade in India, this brass statue is a testament to the rich tradition of Indian craftsmanship. The intricate detailing, from the serene facial features and the flowing robes to the ornate lotus base, showcases the skill and dedication of the artisans. The aged patina of the brass adds to its antique charm and spiritual depth, giving it a timeless quality. This statue is more than just a decorative piece; it is an embodiment of centuries of spiritual devotion and artistic excellence, bringing a piece of this profound heritage into your home or sacred space. The casting process, passed down through generations, ensures that each statue carries a unique spirit and a tangible connection to the land where the Buddha's teachings first took root.

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.
