Laughing (&) Buddha :)

This little idol of Budai or laughing
Buddha, as he is famously called, is a special gift from my amma (mom). While leaving
for post graduation, mom brought this to me as a token of happiness. . I kept him
in my closet amid the pile of my belongings and when every time noticed this generous man, he appeared like playfully
reminding my carelessness and brought laughter :)
Later as I ventured to have some
information on him, I realized that this
poor content man carried his possession in his cloth sack (Budai), gave candy
to poor children and was shown smiling always. He represents good virtues of
generosity, kindness, wisdom and laughter. Little do I know about him but still
I carry a lot of admiration from this little knowing. He makes me comprehend that : Happiness is not a state acquired through materials, it is a spiritual
state of our shining soul.
I admit, all these days this idol of Laughing
Buddha alone didn’t make me grin but thought of my mother’s lovable intention
to gift this precious idol always does :)
This picture clicked by me is a
glimpse of smiling Buddha shining through :)
