"The lotus is often seen as a sign of enlightenment and divinity and, in Buddhism, the flower represents awakening and spiritual growth. However, it is also symbolic of strength and resolve in times of darkness because, although it lives in muddy water, it continues to grow towards the sunlight and remains unscathed. In fact, it is said that the thicker and deeper the mud, the more beautiful the lotus blooms."
