The Goddess Equation

In most of the philosophical lessons Lotus flower is represented by Mahalakshmi The mother Goddess of the world. The beauty of a lotus flower goes beyond its aesthetics. Nothing is more spiritual than the Lotus. They are called the Flower of Life because of their association with the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

The meaning behind the flower relate to the symbolism of the lotus growing out of muddy waters. The flowers’ roots anchor it in the mud, but the flower rises above its murky environment, blossoming open one petal at a time. Based on these unique growing conditions, the lotus flower has come to have many symbolic meanings

1. Spiritual Enlightenment:

The lotus represents spiritual enlightenment. Regardless of its dirty environment and the muddy water it’s rooted in, the lotus rises above it all to bloom in beauty, facing the sun. This is symbolic of overcoming the material world and emerging from the muddy waters of suffering to reach spiritual enlightenment and wisdom.

2. Detachment:

The flower symbolizes detachment as the lotus detaches itself from the water and filth that sullies its environment. This symbolism serves as a reminder to separate ourselves from things that could sully our soul and to instead focus on the things that matter, such as wisdom, relationships and spiritual enlightenment.

3. Resurrection & New Beginnings:

Lotus also symbolizes resurrections and new beginnings. The flower emerges in the morning, only to close up at night and disappear back into the water. in the morning, a new blossom remerges and continues the cycle and signifies our life depends on the Sun for every aspect of life i.e. creation, development and destruction.

It is clear that the manner in which the lotus grows is the main reason for the reverence in which it is held. It begins in the mud, where its rhizome is buried; then the petiole makes its way up through murky water toward the surface; once it has reached the air, high above the water in clear light, an unsullied blossom opens among the leaves that themselves are untouched by the water. What better image for the journey of the soul, born in ignorance and mired in the material world, seeking enlightenment on its passage through life; what better display of tranquility than the great green leaves lying quietly on the water with the splendid blossom glowing in the air above them

Let us examine the Angkor Wat Hindu temple- The Guinness World Records considers it as the largest religious structure in the world represents the structure of louts represents the home of the Trimurti (3 Gods) and the passage to the 3 Worlds; - Earth, Heaven and Hell

In the ordinary man, kundalini remains in a state called ′′ resting ", it is ′′ sleepy ′′ in the chakra mujadara, which is the root (mule) of Susman and all Nadi. At this place is located the triangle (tricone) with the base at the top and the top below, called Tripura which is the seat of the kundalini. Kundalini is wrapped three and a half times around Shiva's symbolic Linga. When the kundalini is ′′ awake ", through a complex and tantric initiation process, it penetrates inside sushumnā and, during its ascent, ′′ drills ′′ the different ′′ lotus ′′ that thrive as it passes. The goal of kundalini awakening is to lead to the realization of the Self (moksha). Upon awakening, the kundalini goes up the spine from the sacrum to the fontanelle bone, progressing from one of the seven chakras to another to harmonize them one by one through the sushumna canal.
