🔎 The lotus flower has many different names such as the "Indian Lotus", the "Sacred Lotus", and the "Bean of India". In Buddhist symbolism the lotus is symbolic of purity of the body, speech, and mind as while rooted in the mud, its flowers blossom on long stalks as if floating above the muddy waters of attachment and desire.

🔎 The lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) is an ancient and polyvalent symbol in Asian culture. • The lotus flower is one of the Ashtamangala of Buddhism, representative of creation and cosmic renewal and "primordial purity" (Wylie: ka dag) and shares in the chakra and mandala symbolism of the Dharmacakra. • The founders (tirthankaras) of Jainism are potrayed seated or standing on lotus blossoms. The Jain tirthankara Padmaprabha is represented by a lotus. Padmaprabha means "bright as a red lotus" in Sanskrit. 🔎 "I love the lotus because while growing from mud, it is unstained" (Zhou Dunyi).
