The Earth Witnessing Buddha: A Symbol of Enlightenment

This exquisite brass statue captures Lord Buddha in the serene Bhumisparsha mudra, the "Earth Witness" gesture. The left hand rests in his lap, palm upwards, symbolizing wisdom, while the right hand extends downwards, fingers pointing towards the earth. This powerful pose signifies the moment of Buddha's enlightenment, when he called upon the earth to witness his victory over the temptations of Mara, the demon who sought to disrupt his path to awakening. It is a profound representation of unwavering resolve, inner strength, and the ultimate triumph of spiritual knowledge.

Artistry and Divine Adornment

Crafted by skilled artisans in India, this statue is a testament to traditional craftsmanship and artistic excellence. The rich brass body is meticulously detailed, with the serene facial features, the coiled hair, and the urna (a dot between the eyebrows, representing a third eye of spiritual wisdom) all rendered with delicate precision. The Buddha's robes are adorned with vibrant inlay work, featuring meticulously placed turquoise-colored stones and accents of red and blue gemstones. These precious stones not only enhance the visual appeal of the sculpture but also symbolize the auspicious qualities and the boundless compassion of the awakened one. The interplay of the gleaming brass and the colorful inlay creates a truly captivating piece that exudes a sense of sacredness and beauty.

Echoes of Ancient Wisdom

The Bhumisparsha mudra is a pivotal moment in the Buddhist narrative, recounted in various Jataka tales and Buddhist scriptures. It is said that as Siddhartha Gautama meditated under the Bodhi tree, Mara unleashed his legions to tempt and distract him. Mara sent his daughters, lust and greed, and even summoned a fierce storm. Yet, Siddhartha remained steadfast, his gaze fixed on the earth, his hand outstretched. He called upon the earth goddess, Bhumi, to bear witness to his purity and his determination to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all sentient beings. The earth responded with a tremor, signifying its affirmation and the validation of his spiritual attainment. This act solidified his victory and his transformation into the Buddha, the "Enlightened One."

A Sacred Presence for Your Sanctuary

This 8-inch brass Buddha statue is more than just a decorative item; it is a conduit for peace, mindfulness, and spiritual reflection. Its presence can transform any space into a sanctuary of calm and introspection. Whether placed in a meditation room, a living area, or an office, it serves as a constant reminder of the path to inner peace and the power of unwavering determination. The exquisite craftsmanship and the symbolic significance of the Bhumisparsha mudra make this statue a truly meaningful addition to any collection of religious art or a thoughtful gift for those seeking spiritual guidance and inspiration. The statue is proudly made in India, continuing a long tradition of producing sacred objects of immense beauty and spiritual depth.

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.
