"The blue lotus was especially venerated in Ancient Egypt, where its petals were steeped in water, tinctured in alcohol, or distilled into an essential oil to produce a potent rejuvenating and amorous panacea."
~ Robert Beér, The Handbook of Tibetan Buddhist Symbols
"If you feel lost, disappointed, hesitant, or weak, return to yourself, to who you are, here and now and when you get there, you will discover yourself, like a lotus flower in full bloom, even in a muddy pond, beautiful and strong."
