Embodiment of Healing and Compassion

This exquisite brass statue captures the serene presence of the Medicine Buddha, also known as Bhaisajyaguru. Seated in a meditative posture, this divine figure radiates an aura of peace, healing, and profound compassion. The intricate craftsmanship of this 9-inch sculpture speaks to the rich artistic traditions of Tibetan Buddhism, where such representations are not mere decorations but potent symbols of spiritual aspiration and refuge. The Medicine Buddha is a central figure in Mahayana Buddhism, revered as the master of healing arts and the dispeller of suffering. According to Buddhist lore, he made twelve great vows to heal all beings from sickness, mental anguish, and the cycle of rebirth. His form is often depicted holding a medicine bowl filled with medicinal herbs, symbolizing his power to cure all ailments. In this statue, his right hand rests in the *vitarka mudra* or gesture of teaching, while his left hand is in *dhyana mudra* or meditation, cradling a small vessel from which delicate, stylized herbs emerge. This posture underscores his dual role as a source of wisdom and a healer. ––––––––––

Symbolism and Artistic Detail

The choice of brass for this sculpture is significant. Brass, with its warm luster and durability, has long been favored in religious art for its ability to hold intricate detail and its association with purity and auspiciousness. The smooth, polished surface of the brass reflects light, giving the statue a luminous quality that enhances its spiritual presence. The serene expression on the Buddha's face, with eyes gently closed in contemplation, invites a sense of calm and mindfulness to any space it occupies. His cranial protuberance, the *ushnisha*, signifies his awakened wisdom, while the curly hair denotes his divine nature. The monastic robes are elegantly draped, showcasing the skill of the artisan in rendering fabric folds in solid metal. The urna, a dot on his forehead, symbolizes his inner vision. In Tibetan culture, statues of the Medicine Buddha are often placed in homes, monasteries, and hospitals to invoke blessings of health and well-being. They serve as a constant reminder of the Buddha's compassionate vows and the potential for healing that exists within us all. This particular statue, with its balanced proportions and detailed execution, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Buddhist iconography and its ability to inspire devotion and inner peace across generations. It is a piece that can bring a sense of tranquility and a focal point for meditation, prayer, or simply quiet reflection, imbuing any environment with a sacred energy.

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.
