Laughing Buddha / Happy Buddha
Known as Hotei (Japan) and Pu-Tai (China), these figures embody the ideals of the good life: i.e. health, happiness, prosperity and longevity.
They represent the later Buddhist notions that the good life was indeed attainable in this world.
It consisted of self-mastery, a happy demeanor, purposeful endeavor, a deep commitment to the welfare of others and enlightened awareness.
Scholars believe that the Laughing Buddha is in fact modeled on an historical figure, a fat wandering Zen monk named Pu-tai.
All sources describe him as obese, with wrinkled forehead, and a white protruding belly which he left uncovered.
There was another feature of his bodily appearance that captured attention.
Wherever he went, he wore a pu-tai (Japanese Hotei) or cloth-bag.
Thus he came to be known as Pu-tai Hoshang or hemp-bag monk. Legend has it that in this bag he carried candy for the children.
Over the centuries within China, Buddhist notions of happiness based on self-mastery and enlightened insight were fused with popular Chinese life-ideals of happiness through material prosperity, thus today the hemp sack may be interpreted as filled with gold, filled with happiness, health, and other aspects of abundance.
Happy Hotei's come in many forms.
Love Buddha - Sitting in love and compassion.
Prosperity Buddha - holding a Ru-Yi Pot or Bowl of Plenty up to the universe for receiving abundance .
Safe Travel Buddha - on a journey with a hemp sack full of protection .
Happy Home Buddha - Sitting on a large gold nugget representing solid foundation, with a smaller nugget in his hand to give to others.
Spiritual Journey Buddha - dressed for the journey in fine robes, with a fan for understanding and a sack to collect insights .
Long Life Buddha - sitting with his fan hat and enjoying the good life!
Laughing Buddha (Hotei) travels the country spreading joy and happiness wherever he goes.
His big belly is a symbol of happiness, good luck and generosity.
Hotei is the deity of happiness, laughter, abundance and the wisdom of contentment.
The image of the Hotei Buddha is almost always seen carrying a cloth or linen sack.
It is usually filled with many precious items, including candy for children, food, or the woes of the world.
His prayer mala is carved with a symbol meaning "good fortune".
His large elongated earlobes are a sign of wisdom.
The bag represents fulfillment of wishes or can also be the blessings of Buddha.
Happiness is one of the Laughing Buddha's greatest gifts.
Many believe that rubbing the Buddha's belly brings joy, luck and prosperity.
As a result, Feng Shui has adopted the Laughing Buddha as a prime symbol of wealth & prosperity.
Buddha
Although Buddhism first entered China from India during the Later Han, in the time of Han Ming Ti (AD 58-76), it did not become popular until the end of the 3rd century.
The prevailing disorders, aggravated by barbarian invasions and the flight of northern Chinese to the south, heightened the attraction of Buddhism with its promise of personal salvation, despite its lack of affinity with the society-oriented thought of the Chinese.
Buddhism was founded by Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha, a prince of the Sakya kingdom on the borders of what are now India and Nepal and a contemporary of Confucius.
Intent on finding relief for human suffering, he received a moment of enlightenment while meditating under a Bo tree.
The Buddha taught that desires are the source of pain and that by overcoming desires, pain can be eliminated.
To this end, he advocated meditation and pursuing the Eight fold Path, similar to the Ten Commandments of Judaism and Christianity.
The objective was to reach Nirvana, the condition of serenity of spirit, where all cravings, strife and pain have been overcome, giving way to a merging of the spirit with eternal harmony.
At an early stage of its development, Buddhism split into two major trends, Mahayana (Greater Vehicle) and Hinayana (Lesser Vehicle).
Hinayana remained closer to the original Buddhism and is still the religion of Southeast Asian countries.
The Buddhism of China, Korea, Japan, Nepal, Tibet and Vietnam, however, stems largely from Mahayana.
Mahayana Buddhism contained more popular elements, such as belief in repetitive prayers, heaven and deities--bodhisattvas--who would help people gain salvation. It also readily adapted to the land and people it converted.
In China, it split into several schools, including Chan (Zen in Japan), Tian-tai (Tendai in Japan), and Pure Land.

Testimonial
Hi Keiko,
I received the beautiful brass dragons,
bronze dragon incense burner and Kuan Yin.
They are absolutely beautiful. I paid almost
double for a smaller brass dragon from a
different company that looks almost childish
next to yours.
It is very obvious the quality of this artwork
is far superior and the energy in my house feels
like it has lifted. The small dragon you included
as a gift is much nicer than I expected,
thank you very much! I will enjoy these for many years, many thanks.
I look forward to ordering my Christmas presents from you.
