Yamantaka symbolizes the transcendence of death, for it is through the attainment of wisdom that one gains an understanding of the ultimate nature of reality. By manifesting as Vajrabhairava, a Dharma Protector sworn to defend the Buddha's teachings for all time, Manjushri was able to defeat Yama, the Lord of Death, and thereby help to ensure that the dharma continues to be taught in its purest form. By manifesting as Yamantaka, Manjushri also serves as a reminder for practitioners of Highest Yoga Tantra that it is through an understanding of the ultimate nature of reality that one can gain liberation from death and suffering.
"The sculpture chooses you. You know when you find the right piece to bring into your home and into your heart."

Copper statues from Nepali do not need much maintenance. The best way to maintain the statue is to simply dust the piece periodically to keep any dirt from accumulating. They are meant solely for indoor use.
If you would like the piece to shine use a cotton cloth with some coconut oil or other natural oil to wipe down the copper statue. Pay special attention to not go over any painted area of the sculpture.
If you are really interested in making the statue shine you can use some natural oil, like coconut oil or olive oil, and a cotton rag to wipe down the metal portions of the piece. You can use a toothbrush as well to get into the small crevices of the statue. Please pay special attention to not use any oil on any painted surface of the sculpture, such as the face. This will damage the paint and possibly recolor the painted area. Simply use a cotton cloth to dust the face if the face requires attention. Make sure the surface that touches the face does not have any oils present on it. If there are natural stones on the sculpture use caution while going over the stones as they can become dislodged while handling the sculpture.
