The beauty of this Buddha brass sculpture is worth flattening for. This Bhumisparsha posture of Lord Buddha is considered to be of a great importance as it defines the moment when he attained enlightenment.
The celestial demon Mara (illusion), tempted Buddha to obstruct his path to enlightenment, but Buddha triumphed over it by touching the Mother Earth, as a gesture of calling her to witness his enlightenment, and this ‘mudra’ came to be known as the Bhumisparsha mudra.
This superfine brass sculpture has Buddha in the same gesture with the legs folded in a lotus posture in meditation on a supremely carved pedestal with flower petals sprung out along the circumference and decorated with an elegance of white and copper flower stones. The rear side is etched in sacred Buddhist scriptures of worship.
The most enticing feature is the heavily carved robe in a continuous three-dimensional pattern of flowers with the petals precisely striated to form a naturalistic view and studded with crystal-like stones at certain distances all over for a balanced and sober look. The red and green stone inlayed border forms an amazing contrast to the complete golden coloured brass sculpture.
One more interesting thing is the way this floral robe veils Buddha’s body, which is a little different from the usual way. As per the traditional style, right shoulder is bare, but in this sculpture, the robe slightly covers the right shoulder and continues to form a loop from beneath his right hand to end at the left shoulder.
The alluring glow of the Buddha sculpture and the peaceful charm of his facial features are a highlight to this brass beauty. Place this Buddha artefact in your house, workplace or place of worship for an aura of spirituality, positivity and beauty.
