The Enlightened One

Delve into the profound teachings and serene presence of Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha, with this meticulously crafted statue. It beautifully depicts him in a moment of Dharma transmission, sharing the path to enlightenment with all sentient beings. Crafted from brass, the statue embodies both the stillness of meditation and the active compassion that defines the Buddha's life.

The Gesture of Teaching

The mudra, or hand gesture, displayed by the Buddha is significant. With his right hand raised, palm facing outwards, and his left hand holding a bowl, the Buddha embodies the Abhaya Mudra (gesture of fearlessness) and Varada Mudra (gesture of charity, compassion, bestowing of blessings). In many depictions, this bowl signifies the alms bowl. Together these reflect the essence of his teachings: the courage to face suffering and the generosity to offer guidance and liberation.

A Symphony of Detail

The exquisite inlay work that adorns the Buddha's robe and lotus base elevate this piece to a work of art. The detailed patterns and vibrant colors, evoke the rich aesthetic traditions of Buddhist art. The mosaic-like appearance, created with painstaking precision, adds depth and texture, drawing the eye and inviting closer contemplation.

A Legacy of Wisdom

Buddhism's origin story, rooted in the princely life of Siddhartha Gautama, is one of profound transformation. His renunciation of worldly pleasures and his dedicated pursuit of enlightenment under the Bodhi tree are pivotal moments in spiritual history. The Dharma, or the Buddha's teachings, encompasses the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, offering a structured approach to overcoming suffering and achieving Nirvana. This statue serves as a reminder of this legacy, a testament to the power of wisdom, compassion, and the potential for awakening that resides within us all. Place this depiction of the Buddha in your home or sacred space as a constant reminder of inner peace and the path to enlightenment.

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.
