Daruma
The Daruma (or dharma)
, a popular good luck doll in Japan, symbolises perseverence and the ability to achieve success despite the presence of adversity or misfortune. Daruma are round, armless and legless dolls, made from papier mache in varying sizes from centimetres up to metres. They are modelled on the ancient Buddhist monk, Bodhidharma, the founder of the Zen sect of Buddhism, who is said to have lost the use of his arms and legs after meditating for nine years. Hollow but weighted at their base, Daruma always try to right themselves when knocked over and are closely linked to the Japanese proverb 七転八起 “nanakorobi yaoki” which translates as “fall seven times and stand up eight”.

Winning design
Harmonized chequered emblem
Chequered patterns have been popular in many countries around the world throughout history. In Japan, the chequered pattern became formally known as “ichimatsu moyo” in the Edo period (1603-1867), and this chequered design in the traditional Japanese colour of indigo blue expresses a refined elegance and sophistication that exemplifies Japan.
Composed of three varieties of rectangular shapes, the design represents different countries, cultures and ways of thinking. It incorporates the message of “unity in diversity”. It also expresses that the Olympic and Paralympic Games seek to promote diversity as a platform to connect the world.
Narration
Three different rectangular shapes represent diversity.
Diversity makes the world a vibrant place.
It sets us apart but can bring us together.
With mutual respect and support, diversity becomes unity.
These two emblems are made of the same number of shapes.
They remind us that all people are equal.
That regardless of ability or disability, we are united in our humanity.
The thrill and excitement of sports inspires us and makes
hearts around the world beat together as one.
This is where a dazzling future begins.
