The Laughing Buddha — Budai, the wandering monk of Chinese folklore — has never been confused with the historical Buddha, and that is precisely his charm. He carries his sack over one shoulder, belly forward, his laugh unself-conscious. In every culture that has adopted him, he means the same thing: abundance arrived, worry departed.
