The Lotus--Symbol of Purity. As Pure and untouched as a virgin, the lotus bud grows the cool morning sky. The future is only just an idea, but perfection has already been determined deep within. The day, the hour, is approaching in which it will open, unfold and fully blossom towards the light. Immaculate, it will triumph over the mud and the dirt out of which it has grown, yet which is its material, fertile soil.
