Actually, Hotai was from Japan and used to be a disciple of Mahatma Buddha. According to beliefs, when Hotei received knowledge, he started laughing loudly. From then on, he made people laugh and happiness was the only purpose of his life. Wherever Hotai used to go, he used to laugh at people by showing them his big belly. This is why people in Japan and China started calling him laughing Buddha, which in English is called Laughing Buddha.

In China, the followers of Hotai or Laughing Buddha propagated him so much that people there started believing him to be God. They believe that due to him, there is happiness in the house.
