The Lotus flower is symbolic of
rebirth, but in addition to its
religious meaning, the lotus is also a symbol of all that is true, good and beautiful, representing good fortune, peace and enlightenment.
In some belief systems, different coloured Lotus blooms have different symbolic meanings. There are white, blue, red and yellow lotuses described in ancient Indian sutras, or writings. Different colors have different meanings.
White, for instance, represents "purity"; blue represents "goodness"; and red represents "enlightenment."
