Wealth Orientations: The Laughing Buddha:
The Laughing Buddha Feng shui symbol is based on the story of a
Buddhist monk who lived in the 10th century China. He was a bit too
eccentric for a monk, but his heart was loving and open, and in time he
came to be loved by many. He is considered a reincarnation of Gautama
Buddha (the historical Buddha); and added the often missing energy of
light heartedness, joy and laughter to everyday life. Also called the
Happy, Hotei or Traveling Buddha,
The Laughing Buddha is often depicted with gold ingots, a Wu Lou
(Chinese gourd), a sack of treasures or surrounded by children. And, of
course, a big belly!
The symbol of Laughing Buddha is considered to bring auspicious energy, wealth and joyful blessings anywhere it is placed.

gold ingots and place it in the Money area of your home (Southeast).

As Laughing Buddha is considered to be a patron of children, it can be
good Feng shui to have a small statue in your children's room (if they
like it); or in the study.
Treat your Laughing Buddha with respect, never place the statue on the floor.
Location of Placing Laughing Buddha:
One of the best Feng shui locations for a Laughing Buddha is close to the main door, so that you can see it as you come home.
It has to sit at some 30" approximate height & should be facing directly the main door.
The next best place to keep Laughing Buddha is on a side table,or a
corner table which is diagonally opposite to front door and facing the
door.
Do not display your Buddha in the bathroom,dinning room and in the bedroom.
This god of wealth is not worshipped or prayed but just displayed.
If you really love the Laughing Buddha energy and are looking to buy a
statue for your home, go for a big one, at least 2-3 feet. This way, you
would actually be able to rub the Buddha belly for luck! The big Buddha
belly that can hold deep laughter, as well as stomach all your troubles
and transmute them into happiness.
