In Asian symbolism the lotus flower has become a symbol for awakening to the spiritual reality of life. It starts as a small flower at the bottom of a pond in mud and muck. It slowly grows up towards the waters surface continually moving towards the light. Once it reaches the surface of the water the lotus begins to blossom and turn into a beautiful flower.
