Lotus

The Lotus flower is regarded in many different cultures, especially in eastern religions, as a symbol of purity, enlightenment, self-regeneration and rebirth. Its characteristics are a perfect analogy for the human condition: even when its roots are in the dirtiest waters, the Lotus produces the most beautiful flower.

Besides being the name of a popular yoga pose, the lotus flower is considered a symbol of (re)birth, self-realization and spiritual enlightenment. Born in dark, muddy waters, it is known to transform into a flower that shows its beautiful petals above the surface.
