The lotus flower is a picture of the beginning of the world, the origin of life. It is an ancient symbol of rebirth, beauty, life, happiness, purity and spirituality, the unity of the micro and macrocosm, a symbol of the harmony of male and female origin. The lotus was and still is, a particularly revered symbol of many cultures, especially in ancient Egypt, and now in India and China.
