The Serene Protector: Buddha Under the Naga King's Hood

This exquisite brass statue captures a pivotal moment in Buddhist lore, depicting the Buddha protected by the mighty Naga king, Muchalinda. The scene is steeped in profound symbolism, illustrating the power of compassion and steadfastness in the face of adversity. After attaining enlightenment, the Buddha meditated deeply under the Bodhi tree. A fierce storm erupted, threatening to disrupt his meditation. Muchalinda, a benevolent serpent king, emerged from the earth and coiled his body to form a protective canopy over the meditating Buddha, shielding him from the wind and rain with his expansive hood. This act of selfless protection signifies the universe's reverence for the Buddha's wisdom and the interconnectedness of all beings.

Craftsmanship and Devotion

Handmade in India, this statue is a testament to the rich artistic traditions and deep spiritual devotion that have flourished on the subcontinent for centuries. Crafted from high-quality brass, the statue exhibits a beautiful patina and intricate detailing. The Buddha is depicted in a state of serene meditation, his posture exuding peace and tranquility. His robe is rendered with flowing lines, suggesting movement and grace. The multi-headed Naga king, Muchalinda, rises majestically behind the Buddha, his scales intricately carved and his hoods spread wide, creating a striking and protective aura. Each head of the serpent is distinct, contributing to the overall sense of power and divine guardianship.

A Symbol of Inner Strength and Resilience

The imagery of the Buddha sheltered by Muchalinda is a powerful reminder of the strength found within oneself and the support that can be found in unexpected places. It speaks to the importance of perseverance on the spiritual path, even when faced with overwhelming challenges. The Naga, often associated with water, fertility, and cosmic energy in Indian mythology, here embodies the protective forces of the universe coming to the aid of ultimate truth. This statue serves not only as a beautiful decorative piece but also as a constant inspiration to cultivate inner peace, face difficulties with courage, and trust in the unfolding of destiny. Its commanding presence makes it a focal point for meditation, contemplation, and the creation of a sacred space.

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.
