The holiest of flowers for Hindus, the beautiful lotus is symbolic of the true soul of an individual. It represents the being, which lives in turbid waters yet rises up and blossoms to the point of enlightenment. Mythologically speaking, lotus is also a symbol of creation, since Brahma, the creator came forth from the lotus that blooms from the navel of Vishnu. It is also famous as the symbol of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) - the Hindu Right-wing political party of India, the familiar lotus position in meditation and yoga, and as the national flower of India and Bangladesh.
