The image of the Buddha has a calming, almost healing impact on the citta. The murti that you see on this page depicts the Buddha in His traditional, seated iconography. Legs gathered in padmasana. Fingers of one hand in the gentle dharmachakra mudra.


The deep, contemplative composure of a handsomely sculpted countenance, balanced on a stately neck. From the stoopa-like bun His hair is gathered in, to the lifelike folds of His robe pulled over the shoulders - the inimitable silhouette of the Buddha inspires the heart with comforting familiarity and devotion.

The sculpture that you see on this page is of the healing manifestation of the Buddha. His name is Bhaishajyaguru, and He is popularly known as the Medicine Buddha. His skin is the resplendent golden colour of pure brass, over which the deep aquamarine blues and reds of the inlaid robe make for a striking contrast.


In fact, the colour blue is indispensable to the iconography of Lord Bhaishajyaguru. The distinguishing aspect between the Buddha and the Medicine Buddha lies in the hands of the latter - a spring of myrobalan in one, a pot of nectar resting on the palm of the other.


Traditional Tibetan medicine revolves around the gunas of the myrobalan. The concoctions prepared from it are variously designed to reverse disease, senescence, and death, a mixture of all three of which is to be found in the pot in Lord Bhaishajyaguru’s hands.


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.
