Fo—or Fon, the chief god of the Chinese, whom they adore as the sovereign of heaven. He appears to be the same as the Ceylonese Bhudda. They represent him as shining all in light; with his hands concealed under his robes, to show that his power does all things invisibly. He has at his right hand the famous Confucius; and at his left Lao-Kieon, chief of the second sect of their religion.
