Sagaan Ubgen (Companions of Christmas)
$10.00
One of the SchweizerCraft "Companions of Christmas" series (#XmasF 19)
Sagaan Ubgen, the Mongolian guardian of longevity, lives at Lake Baikal, the deepest (and oldest) lake in the entire world, where he has given winter gifts and hospitality to travelers at the lunar New Year for as long as anyone can remember.
Since meeting the Buddha (one of his many visitors) about two and a half thousand years ago, he has attempted to take up meditation, but is constantly interrupted by his talking dragon staff, who worries that enlightenment may bring with it vegetarianism, and thus fewer shared meaty morsels.
A lover of food, drink, and merriment, Sagaan Ubgen hosts a post-holiday retreat for his gift-giving peers, which offers them an opportunity to share stories, talk shop, and catch up after the busy gifting season.
