The Gesture of Wisdom and Debate

This exquisite brass statue captures the serene presence of the Buddha in the Vitarka Mudra, a gesture of debate, discussion, and transmission of teachings. The name "Vitarka" itself signifies reasoning or argument. In this sacred posture, the Buddha's right hand is raised, palm facing outwards, with the thumb and forefinger touching to form a circle. This gesture is believed to symbolize the turning of the Wheel of Dharma, the very essence of the Buddha's teachings, disseminated for the enlightenment of all sentient beings. ––––––––––––––––––––

A Symbol of Enlightenment and Inner Peace

Crafted with meticulous detail in India, this statue embodies the profound spiritual depth associated with Buddhism. The Buddha's serene expression, with eyes gently closed, suggests deep meditation and inner peace. His robes are draped elegantly, adorned with intricate patterns that speak to the rich artistic heritage of the region. The brass material lends a warm, golden hue, enhancing the divine aura of the figure. In Buddhist tradition, the Buddha is often depicted in various mudras, each conveying a specific aspect of his enlightened state. The Vitarka Mudra, in particular, is a powerful representation of the Buddha's wisdom and his ability to guide others through logical discourse and profound understanding. It is a reminder that the path to enlightenment is one of contemplation, discussion, and the continuous pursuit of knowledge. ––––––––––––––––––––

The Blessing of a Master Artisan

Each aspect of this statue, from the subtle curves of the face to the delicate detailing of the hands, is a testament to the skill of the artisan. Handmade in India, this piece carries with it the authentic spirit of traditional craftsmanship. The Vitarka Mudra is not merely a posture; it is an invitation to engage with the teachings, to question, to learn, and to grow. This brass representation serves as a focal point for meditation, a source of inspiration, and a beautiful reminder of the timeless wisdom of the Buddha. Whether placed in a meditation room, a study, or a living space, it brings an element of tranquility and spiritual gravitas, encouraging a deeper connection with one's inner self and the universal truths.

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.
