LAUGHING BUDDHA AND FATHER CHRISTMAS

FENG SHUI  8 MANSIONS

LAUGHING BUDDHA AND FATHER CHRISTMAS

The Laughing Buddha so recognised and loved in eastern culture is, among other things, the patron of children and a figure of happiness and joy.  He is said to symbolise plenty.

He is often depicted with children around his feet and a large sack either on his back or beside him.  His sack is said to represent wealth and good fortune and is full of good things to hand out or bad things to take away.
In a red cloak with a sack on his back he looks something like …

… Father Christmas

The figure we all identify in western culture with the Christmas season as the bringer of gifts to good girls and boys.

 He is instantly recognisable with his red coat and hat, with his white beard and black boots as a bringer of joy and happiness to all children of the world.

The history of both is shrouded in elements of mystery and we wouldn’t have it any other way. 

The magic of Christmas is brought to life with the promise of gifts delivered by Father Christmas who comes and goes without being seen and he does it all around the world in one night.

Both bring a sense of joy, generosity and abundance and their symbolism as well as their mysterious past will continue to enthral us.

To the fulfillment of your dreams
