Laughing Budha : A jolly good fellow !

Perhaps as equally well known as Shakyamuni Buddha all over the world is
who is often called ‘The Laughing Buddha’, the image of a jolly good fellow with a big belly, who grins joyously from ear to ear.

His always welcome expression speaks of many of his virtues, which we whould emulate – of acceptance, understanding, kindness, abundance and contentment despite poverty, generosity, open-heartedness, magnanimity,patience, good cheer, humor… 

Somewhat like a Eastern Santa.....!
