History of Bodhidharma
The Daruma, or Bodhidharma, was the founder of the Zen sect of Buddhism. These sculptures, though typically red and depicting a bearded man (Dharma), vary greatly in color and design depending on region and artist. Daruma is seen as a symbol of perseverance and good luck, making them a popular Japanese gift of encouragement.
