Description
Abstract
Lotus is one of the significant symbols of Buddhism. Naturally, lotus plants start to grow in the
mire at the bottom of the lake before they pass through the mass of water and finally the flowers
bloom in the air. Likewise, the wise and the virtuous ones can manage to move toward Nibbāna
after passing through the thick mass of ignorance (Avijjā) with the use of wisdom (vijjā ňaṇā),
although they are born in the deep mire of defilement (Kilesā). The lotus flowers can beautify the
surface of water. The lotus flowers can make the lake peaceful and delightful by spreading its
beautiful petals over the surface of water gently producing its fragrance in surrounding. It is the
colour of the Lotus flowers that make the scenery around the lake more delightful and beautiful.
In the same way, the wise person can bring peace and joy to other people in his social
environment. He can replace social ills by community welfare activities. A wise person does the
same to his society. Undoubtedly, Social tensions and crimes arise from the anti-social behaviour
of the foolish people. But the wise and the sensible ones never disturb their society. They never
do harm to the society. Thus, lotus flower has become a symbol of wisdom.
