Daruma has been a symbol of good luck for many years in Japan. He was a renown Indian priest who lived about 1500 years ago. He went to China and founded the Zen sect of Buddhism. He spent years in meditation, facing a wall. This doll represents patience and perseverance. Daruma is traditionally purchased when someone start a new business, takes exams, or at the beginning of the new year for good luck. One eye is painted in when a wish is made. The other eye is painted when the wish is fulfilled. The daruma dolls are handmade and hand painted, each one is unique and may differ slightly from photos. The Daruma doll is in a box.

Just the right size for a desktop reminder that I have a goal to accomplish. I think I overdid painting in the pupil of the eye, Daruma looks like he took a hit or something.You paint in one eye when you start your project, and then you joyfully paint in the other when your goal is met. There are other color Darumas depending on your goal, white for scholastic goals, yellow/gold = money, green for health, pink for love) but red is the color of robes worn by priests and also the Chinese color for auspicious fortune. And it's said to repel demons (bonus!)

5.0 out of 5 stars This Daruma Doll has Great Meaning
Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2014
Verified Purchase
I originally saw this doll on an episode of “Go On” (was a great TV series, too bad it was cancelled) where it was referred to as a Japanese Goal Doll. I had never seen one before and absolutely loved the concept. So I started researching and found they are called Daruma dolls. To Amazon I went to make a purchase!

While Daruma dolls may have different purposes for a user, I decided to make the purpose of mine the same as in the “Go On” episode I watched – as a goal doll. You set a major goal or milestone you want to achieve, fill in the pupil of one eye, place it in clear view, and continue pursuing your goal so that you can fill in the other eye. By filling in the other eye, you’ve achieved the concept of “both eyes open”… or the awareness to successfully achieve your goal.

I would encourage you to study the concepts/insights/philosophies behind the Daruma dolls as there is much enlightenment to be gained. It gives you a greater appreciation for what the doll stands for.

This doll was perfect for me. Just the right size and flat enough on the bottom to sit on my desk without wobbling. For me, I wrote my goal on a small sticker and placed it on the bottom of the Daruma doll as a secondary reminder of what I am trying to attain. The constant “one pupil” staring at me is very effective at reminding me to get back on task. I really like this particular Daruma doll and will be buying more for future goals.

Good luck to you!

I gave it to Sofu-sama, (grandfather) last Christmas. You make a wish & color one eye in with a black magic marker. You put it up on a shelf until the wish comes true. Then you color in the other eye. It represents the Bodi Dharma, the Indian monk who came down through China & Korea to Japan bringing the religion of Buddhism to Japan.

Product arrived early.

Arrived in an authentic box and within, the daruma was wrapped and sealed with gold ties. Within there is a very small booklet that describes the custom. Only issue I have is that the booklet in the bag with the daruma bonded to the red paint and so when you try to take it off to read it takes some red paint with it. Thankfully it was on the bottom edge so it is not too noticable.

From some reviews I expected this to be very light and not able to stand up. No problems with mine. Weighs around 150-200g ish and stands on its own. Colours are bright and well crafted. If knocked over to the side it will self-right to normal, knock it to the back and it will stay there. No worries for me though.

Seen some reviews about the gold paint rubbing off... this is an *unavoidable* thing with metallic paints such as gold and silver, go buy some expensive gold markers to see what I mean! It is very rare (and prohibitively expensive!) to find gold metallic paint that holds fast. Bear this in mind.
