The lotus flower is an incredibly beautiful flower and one that has an amazing story behind it. Lotus flowers start down in the muck and mud of areas of still water. They grow a small bud with a vine. Over time the bud's vine starts to grown up and the bud begins it's journey towards the surface of the water. At first the bud is facing downwards towards the much and mud. However, as it rises to the surface it starts to turn itself around and point towards the sun. Once the bud reaches up and over the top of the water line it starts to unfold and the leave blossom into an incredible flower. To the Buddhist and Hindu religion this journey that the flower makes is symbolic of the journey that a person's soul must make towards enlightenment.
