There are chinese figures of a laughing sitting fat buddha who holds
a bag in his right hand.
A simila bag can be seen on the Tarotcard 21.
There are figures of a fat buddha
with many small children running over
his body. This does not mean that the Buddha has
many children (or that he fulfills
wishes for children)
but it symbolizes the "Purushas"
which come out of his supreme
position as a Paramatma.
