A Daruma doll is a Japanese, round tailsman symbolizing perseverance, good luck, and goal-setting, modeled after Bodhidharma (founder of Zen Buddhism) and embodying the proverb “fall down seven times, get up eight”. Owners draw in one eye when setting a goal, and the second eye when the goal is achieved, serving as a reminder to stay determined, as the weighted base always rights itself after being knocked over.
