Laughing Buddha, aka Hotei or Budai, is worshipped as a deity in both the Chinese Buddhist Pantheon as well as the Japanese Buddhist Pantheon. He is often regarded as a traveling monk, bringing abundance and luck to all he meets. Budai is the "Future Buddha", the buddha to come. The laughing buddha is said to bring luck especially when his belly, sign of his wealth and abundance, is rubbed. A sign of luck and happiness for all!
