Both the idols stand on lavishly carved inverted lotus pedestals and hold a lotus bud each in their right hands and left hands are in blessing mudra. The one on the left is Sahajanand Swami or Swaminarayan who was a yogi and ascetic whose teachings brought a revival of Hindu practices of dharma, ahinsa and brahmacharya.


He is garbed in an exclusive frock and a loose pleated dhoti that beautifully veils his body, a stole that hangs on his hands and a densely chiseled crown topped with a feather like broch along with a garland of flowers and royal jewels. He was also given the name Nilkantha Varni when he left his house at an early age and mastered the Astanga yoga (eight fold yoga) along with the correct understanding of the four primary schools of philosophy.


The idol on the right is Gunatitanand Swami, who was a prominent paramhansa of Swaminarayan Sampradaya and was ordained by Swaminarayan himself. He was accepted as the first spiritual successor of Swaminarayan sanstha; garbed in a robe of beautiful loose pleats that has its ends hung from his hands, a beautifully striped turban and a long flower garland.


The realistic facial expressions, urdhva pundra tilak and the carefully incised charming floral and ethnic carvings on Swaminarayan’s dress reflects the sculptor’s painstaking time and professional skills to create these smooth and shining masterpieces. We are selling these statues in a pair for the customer to have a complete insight into Akshar Purushottam Darshan.


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.
