Indian lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) is an aquatic plant species belonging to the Nelumbonaceae family. The Indian lotus is cultivated for both ornamental and food purposes in a wide area from present-day Vietnam to Afghanistan. It is the national blossom of India and Vietnam. In ancient Egypt, this plant species was unknown, later introduced into this country at the time of Persian invasions. The ancient Egyptians believed in the blue lotus, or Nymphaea caerulea, also known as the "blue lotus" and the "sacred lotus" flower, as the sacred flower.
Lotus rhizomes are used in Asian cuisine, especially in Chinese and Japanese cuisines. This vegetable, which is sold as cut or whole, frozen, canned or fresh, is consumed by frying, making soup, pickling with sweet syrup or vinegar. Lotus rhizomes have a crunchy texture and are slightly sweet-sour.
The lotus flower is one of the symbols that we encounter the most and has a deep meaning. Being a member of the Nelumbonaceae family, the lotus has also taken its place in mythology. The lotus plant, which lives on the water surface, has a fresh, clean, and clear appearance regardless of the soil.
In beliefs such as Hinduism and Buddhism in the past, the lotus flower, symbolizing cleansing your inner world and finding yourself, is also similar to the lotus flower. This sacred flower is also known as the symbol of eternal life.
The lotus flower, which closes its leaves at night, begins to open with the sunrise and says hello to the sun. The lotus flower, which does not repel dust and dirt due to the structure of its leaves, always cleans itself and offers a pure and clear appearance. The most apparent difference between the lotus flower and the much-likened lotus flower is that the lotus flower can reach up to 20 cm in length, while the lotus can reach up to 3 m. The lotus flower, which has different colors, is frequently encountered in works of art from other geographies in history.
The different colors of the lotus flower have other definitions. In addition to the white lotus flower, which symbolizes purity, there are also red lotus flowers, which are the symbol of love and passion. While the pink lotus flower represented enlightenment, the blue lotus flower was the symbol of wisdom.
