It is told that if you rub his stomach daily he will see to it that your wishes are granted. When you do rub his stomach you need to do so with a positive attitude. The gesture should be uplifting to your spirits and make you feel happy.
He often is shown with beads hanging from his neck or held in his hand. These beads are often referred to as the “pearls of wisdom”. Many like to keep the Laughing Buddha with the beads close by the place they normally meditate.

Who was the Laughing Buddha?
The Laughing Buddha has become a common and popular name for Budai. He was supposedly a Buddhist Zen monk who lived in China over a thousand years ago. He was different from all other monks and considered a jolly fellow. He often laughed whole heartedly and reminded everyone to enjoy life and stay happy. He was very much loved. Budai always had a great big smile on his face. That is why he is best known by his nickname “Laughing Buddha”.
One legend tells a story illustrating the claim that Budai wanted people to stay positive and joyful. When the beloved monk died many cried and a huge crowd gathered around for a last farewell with tears running down their cheeks. The fire was lit at the cremation ceremony.
Then to the surprise of most mourners present there was a huge blast of fireworks. Before he died Budai had secretly asked that firecrackers were hidden under his robe. That did that trick. All who were present at the cremation found themselves smiling. Even after his death he reminded all present to celebrate life.
