Budai Monk is this, an eminent monk from the Five Dynasties. Also named Chang Tingzi. A native of Fenghua, Mingzhou (Zhejiang). Known for his miraculous powers, he often carries a cloth bag on his back when entering the market, so he is called the cloth bag monk. Because before he passed away, he said, "Maitreya is the true Maitreya, and he has hundreds of billions of clones, showing himself to people all the time, but people don't know it." People at that time considered him to be the incarnation of Maitreya. Since then, the Maitreya Bodhisattva worshiped in most Buddhist temples in China is based on this image~~
