Lotus Flower
The Buddhist Lotus SymbolIn Buddhism the lotus flower is one of the most poignant representations of Buddhist teachings and is one of the Eight Auspicious Symbols. The lotus flower has a strong pleasant odor and is the only water dwelling plant to steadily rise eight to twelve inches above the surface. This flower has inspired a good deal of people through out a good deal of cultures, it is small, yet strong, carring deep rooted symbolism. The Lotus is Buddhism's best recognized motif it is applied in all kinds of Buddhist art all over all Buddhist cultures. Scrolling lotuses often times embellish Buddhist textiles, ceramics and architecture. They may also be found as portion of the a heap of symbols, where the number of pedals is of outstanding importance. The growth pattern of a lotus flower signify the progress of the soul. The origins of a lotus flower grow from the primeval mud of materialism, the stem then grows up through the waters of experience, where it lies pristinely above the water, and basks in the bright sunshine of enlightenment. According to scholars, "in esoteric Buddhism, the heart of the being is like an unopened lotus: when the virtues of the Buddha give rise to therein, the lotus blossoms; that is why the Buddha sits on a lotus bloom." Almost each important Buddhist deity may be related in some way with the lotus, either being seated upon a lotus in full bloom or keeping one in their hands. Some images of standing Buddhas will go as far as to have each foot rests on a discerned lotus. Finally the color of the lotus is as important to the symbolism affiliated with it. The white Lotus represents a state of spiritual perfection and total mental purity. It is affiliated with the White Tara who will proclaim her perfective nature, a quality which is reinforced by the color of her body. Pink is the supreme lotus, for the most part reserved for the most eminent deity. Naturally it is related with the Great Buddha himself. Red signifies the initial nature and purity of the heart. It is the lotus of love, compassion, passion and all other calibers of the heart. It is the flower of Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion. The blue Lotus is a symbol of the victory of the spirit over the senses, and signifies the wisdom of knowledge. It is the preferent flower of Manjushri, the bodhisattva of wisdom.
