A Beacon of Healing and Compassion

This exquisite brass statue embodies the profound presence of the Medicine Buddha, also known as Bhaisajyaguru. In Tibetan Buddhism, the Medicine Buddha is revered as the embodiment of the healing power of all Buddhas, a celestial physician who alleviates the suffering of sentient beings, both physically and mentally. His presence is a source of solace and a potent reminder of the path to liberation from illness, ignorance, and all forms of torment. The imagery of the Medicine Buddha is rich with symbolism. He is typically depicted in a serene meditative posture, symbolizing his profound inner peace and mastery over the mind. In his left hand, resting in his lap, he holds a begging bowl filled with the nectar of immortality, from which medicinal herbs sprout, representing his ability to heal all diseases. His right hand is often extended, palm facing outward in the gesture of giving refuge or resting on his right knee, signifying his compassion and accessibility. The urna, a swirl of hair between his eyebrows, symbolizes his enlightened wisdom, and the ushnisha, the cranial protuberance, represents his attainment of supreme knowledge. The serene expression on his face speaks of a deep well of compassion for all beings. In the Lapis Lazuli Sutra, it is recounted that the Medicine Buddha made twelve great vows to benefit all beings, vowing to appear in the world and help those who are sick, suffering from various ailments, or tormented by negative states of mind. He vowed to guide them toward enlightenment and to purify their karma. This statue serves as a tangible representation of these vows and the boundless healing energy he bestows.

Craftsmanship and Spiritual Significance

This remarkable statue is meticulously crafted from high-quality brass, a material often chosen for its durability and its auspicious qualities in Buddhist traditions, believed to channel spiritual energies. The dark, lustrous finish of the brass is accented with touches of gold and subtle coloring, highlighting the intricate details of the Buddha's robes and ornamentation. The urna, the curls of his hair, and the flowing folds of his sanghati (monastic robe) are rendered with artistic precision. The detailed ornamentation around his waist and shoulders adds to the regal and divine aura of the deity. Placing such a statue in your home or meditation space can create a sacred atmosphere, inviting the blessings and healing energies of the Medicine Buddha. It serves as a focal point for prayer, meditation, and reflection, encouraging the cultivation of compassion, mindfulness, and a desire to alleviate suffering in oneself and others. The presence of the Medicine Buddha is believed to ward off illness, negative influences, and mental afflictions, bringing about a sense of peace and well-being. It is a cherished object for practitioners and collectors alike, a beautiful testament to the enduring power of Buddhist art and devotion.

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.
