Is
Buddha a fat guy
|
|
| The
image of the fat Buddha is actually a Chinese diety known as Hotei...or
the Laughing Buddha. he is very much like a Chinese santa Claus. Hotei is NOT the historical Buddha Gotama who is depicted in statues as serene meditative and slim. Hotei derived its beginnings from a mix in Buddhist and Shinto religions and can be traced back to the time of the Liang Dynasty in China. Readers Comments : Read/Add |
