INSIGHT
The lotus flower has a deep symbolic tie for Asia, India and Egyptian cultures. The flower starts off as a tiny blossom at the very bottom of a pond and slowly makes its way upward toward the light. The constant struggle of the flower and its eagerness to move toward the source of light is taken as a reflection of the meaning of rebirth and beauty.
