Statue of Buddha Sitting On Blooming Lotus

According to Most Venerable Thich Thanh Tu: “In the mud of the five senses, the Buddha escaped and became a liberated enlightenment. The Buddha did not come down from any means, but was a fully educated human being in the world, then automatically controlled, freed from the five desires to become enlightened. The value of the lotus flower is from the place of foul filth where the lotus flower has a pure scent, so the lotus is included in the symbolism of the Buddha.

The lotus flower goes through many stages from the moment it grows up: The stage is in the mud, the second stage is out of the mud in the water, the third stage is out of the water, the stage is a fragrant perfume. sweet. Just like the life of the Buddha, there are many stages: the stage is to indulge in worldly pleasures, the second is to become monastic, the third is when you try to practice diligently to the limit. purity, tame the mind, stage four is full enlightenment.

Later, the Patriarch used the lotus flower to symbolize the Buddha's practice, the image of the Buddha sitting on a lotus throne means that.
