Nirav, a 12-year-old from Kolkata, pens down a wonderful writing that highlights resilience and self-discovery, drawing on the lotus as a symbol of inner strength and growth amid adversity.
Lotus : The Magical Flower
We have the courage to open our hearts and have the ability to leave and live a life of love and beauty, just as a lotus flower rises above the struggles of the past to become a symbol of peace and love.
Lotus is a magical flower, as it is rooted in the mud, surrounded by water but finds a way up to bloom and grow. Its petals open one by one and grow only in mud. In order to grow and gain knowledge, we must face the problems of life and its sufferings. If you feel lost, return to yourself and when you get there, you will discover yourself, like a lotus flower in full bloom, even in a muddy pond, beautiful and strong. Whether we have it all or we have nothing, we are all faced with the same problems. We must have the aim to grow as the lotus if we aim to gain more knowledge and affection.
The Gita says that those who devote their action to God, leaving all attachments, remain untouched by wrong, as the lotus leaf is untouched by water.
