Yellow lotus - Nelumbo lutea
The blossom of the yellow lotus flower, also known as the golden lotus, is associated with compassion, knowledge, wisdom and beauty. In Hinduism, it symbolises rebirth and reincarnation, purity and enlightenment.
In some spiritual teachings, the yellow lotus is also associated with spiritual growth, self-improvement and the pursuit of higher consciousness. It symbolises the richness and beauty of the soul. Love, devotion and peace are our strongest powers, and utilising them is supported by the golden lotus.
The essence creates inner peace and patience, it calms us down when we want to force things and teaches us that it is better to act wisely than quickly. It allows us to first explore what is the right thing to do and then put it into practice.
In doing so, it gives us a sunny disposition and even makes us appear cheerful. Behind this is the confidence and strength we feel inside. Hope, joie de vivre and compassion combine to create the ability to find happiness even in the face of resistance, hardship and despair.
The yellow lotus is associated with spiritual enlightenment, knowledge and wisdom. It imparts the ability to see beyond the obstacles of the material world. And it is particularly effective when students of meditation despair that their thoughts go round and round just as they are trying so hard to let them go.
