Budai (Chinese: 布袋; pinyin: bdi) or Budai Luohan, pronounced Hotei in Japanese, is a figure that appears throughout Chinese culture. He is a representation of contentment and abundance, and is sometimes seen as a deity by religious Taoists and Buddhists. His image graces many temples, restaurants, amulets, and businesses. He is almost always shown smiling or laughing, hence his nickname in Chinese, the Laughing Buddha (Chinese: 笑佛). Budai is based on an eccentric Chinese Zen (Chn) monk who lived in the time of the Liang Dynasty. He has since become incorporated into a number of Buddhist, Taoist and Shinto traditions. Some Buddhist traditions use him as an representation of the Bodhisattva Maitreya, the predicted Buddha to succeed Gautama Buddha in the future. In Japan, Hotei persists in folklore as one of the Seven Lucky Gods (Shichi Fukujin). Buddhist meditation encompasses a variety of meditation techniques that develop mindfulness, concentration, tranquility and insight. Core meditation techniques are preserved in ancient Buddhist texts and have proliferated and diversified through the millennia of teacher-student transmissions. Non-Buddhists use these techniques for the pursuit of physical and mental health as well as for non-Buddhist spiritual aims.[1] Buddhists pursue meditation as part of the path toward Enlightenment and Nirvana.
