Antique 17th century netsuke of Daruma holding a large brush with inlaid eyes

Description: Antique netsuke of Daruma holding a large brush ( used to draw the eyes). Eyes are inlaid with black onyx. Amazing patina for such antique piece.In reality, Daruma isn't about fulfilling desires; that's not in the spirit of Buddhism or Japanese philosophy. Daruma's actual significance serves as a reminder of self-sufficiency, attention, and discipline.Bodhidharma founded the school of Chan/Zen Buddhism that promotes self-discipline. The practice of purchasing and using a daruma is less about expressing a wish and more about having a talisman that acts as a reminder of your own life aims. Drawing in the daruma's eye is not a wish; it is a promise to yourself that you will follow your ambition and achieve your objective, regardless of the hurdles and traps that may arise as you continue your journey.Nanakorobi yaoki, usually translated as "fall down seven times, stand up eight," is a popular idiom frequently linked to the concept of daruma. Daruma is a sign of resilience and maintaining the road. You have a goal and are tempted to abandon it, but having the daruma on your shelf is a continual reminder of what you initially desired—why you made that pledge to yourself in the first place.
