Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker praises someone’s wisdom by comparing them to a miniature Buddha, then adds the unexpected detail that they are covered in hair. The line mixes admiration with an absurd physical comparison, giving the compliment an affectionate, irreverent quality rather than solemn reverence.
