Summary
The point of this practice is to gain practical needs, such as resources, health, longevity, and eloquence so the practitioner is successful in spreading the Dharma. The three key practices involve breathing, balancing bodily fluids, and developing the clear mind. Visualization, mantra, and mudra (24:16). The origin all but one of the deities is from India, transmitting through Chines, Korea, and finally Japan. Hotei is the only one who is from Japan. He is the local earth god. The seven gods of fortune are: Saraswati, Ebisu, Heavenly King of the North, Fulushou represented as one god. Shou as Lao Tzu, Budai Monk, and Mahakala. Thus the practice includes Taosism, Tantra, and Exoteric Buddhism.
