White Lotus: Symbol of Purity

The lotus thrives in murky waters, symbolizing purity and beauty in Hinduism and Buddhism. Scientifically 'Nelumbo Nucifera', it's India's national flower, revered in art and myth. Edible parts include seeds, leaves, and stems, used in cuisine and medicine. With a 145-million-year history, it's a universal symbol, embodying eternity, sanctity, and life renewal. Hindu belief holds every individual possesses a sacred lotus spirit. White Lotus, often beneath deities' feet like Lakshmi, Sarasvati, signifies purity. Brahma, the ultimate creator, emerges from the Lotus.
