Lotus
The Lotus flower, one of the 8 Auspicious Symbols, is considered to be a sacred symbol in many Asian Cultures. It is revered as the Universal Symbol of the Flowering of Consciousness and Spiritual Attainment because of its ability to rise above the mud of ponds and untouched by its muddy origins. The Lotus flower represents peace and purity, that whenever obstacles come up, no matter how dark & muddy the waters may get, you can triumph and rise above and let the beautiful flower inside your heart glow.
