‘Ekadanta Dayavanta Charbhuja Dhari’
'Mathe Sindoor Sohe Moose ki Sawari’
This stanza has been taken from the world famous prayer (Arti) of Lord Sri Ganesha; looks like these lines have just got a form of an Artistic illustration.
Shri Ganesha resides on his eternal ride ‘Mooshak’(his pet mouse) and one interesting feature here is that here the Rat completely looks like a sawari (ride) as we can see through the mouse’ position, it just looks like he is walking while carrying his master on his back.
Apart from this, this Chaturbhuja handed form of Ganapati is the source of all forms of Ganesha as it is widely worshipped and also holds the symbolic and spiritual importance. He holds an axe, a Trishula and enjoys a Laddoo from his trunk. He poses an abhaya mudra with his lower right hand.
The twisted trunked elephant faced Demigod wears a long and wide Cobra serpent on his tummy as well as a stunning dhoti on the waist and a ravishing ‘patka’ on the shoulders along with a heavy amount of ornaments which adds a spark in his transcendental personality.
The eyes and the ears are the most gorgeous features here and the alluring aureole behind his peacock feathered golden crown which is comprised of Leafy and floral illustrations placed over his wide head while the forehead is marked with a Vaishnava Tilak. Here the unity between Ganesha and his Rat along with the attentiveness of Lord’s ride through his eyes is an eye catching experience for the viewer.
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.
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.
