The Gesture of Enlightenment

This exquisite brass statue captures the serene and profound essence of the Buddha in the Bhumisparsha Mudra, the gesture of "earth-touching." It is a powerful representation of the moment of enlightenment, a pivotal point in Buddhist history and philosophy. According to tradition, as Siddhartha Gautama sat beneath the Bodhi tree, he was assailed by Mara, the demon of illusion, who sought to distract him from achieving ultimate understanding. Buddha, unmoved by Mara's temptations and torments, extended his right hand towards the earth, calling the Earth Goddess to bear witness to his victory over ignorance and desire. This act symbolizes his unshakable resolve, his deep connection to the earthly realm, and his ultimate triumph of wisdom.

Craftsmanship and Cultural Significance

Handmade in India, this statue is a testament to the skill and dedication of traditional artisans. The use of brass, a material with a rich history in religious iconography, lends a timeless quality and a warm, inviting sheen to the figure. The intricate inlay work, featuring vibrant stones that evoke the colors of nature and spiritual energy, adds a unique and captivating dimension to the piece. The red, blue, and green stones are not merely decorative; they are often associated with protective energies, wisdom, and vitality in various cultural and spiritual traditions. The detailed rendering of the Buddha's robes, adorned with delicate beadwork, further emphasizes the artistry and reverence with which this sacred image has been created. This statue is more than just an object; it is a conduit for devotion, a reminder of the path to liberation, and a beautiful expression of Indian artistic heritage.

A Symbol of Inner Peace

The Bhumisparsha Mudra is a universal symbol of grounding, stability, and the realization of truth. In this posture, the Buddha is depicted as being fully present, drawing strength and affirmation from the very earth upon which he sits. This resonated deeply with his followers, who saw in it a confirmation of the Buddha's profound teachings and his ability to overcome all obstacles. The serene expression on the Buddha's face, with closed eyes, suggests deep meditation and inner contemplation. This statue serves as a powerful reminder to cultivate inner peace, to remain steadfast in the face of challenges, and to seek enlightenment within oneself. Its presence can bring a sense of tranquility and spiritual focus to any space, inviting contemplation and fostering a deeper connection to the principles of Buddhism.

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.
