Humanity’s Blossoming: The rise of the Lotus Flower

The path of the human who is awakening

The symbol of the Indian lotus (often called ‘lotus flower’) has been a spiritual symbol in the East for thousands of years.

The spiritual meaning of the lotus flower is, perhaps, even more relevant for humanity today as we go through tremendous upheaval in virtually every area of our lives.

The lotus flower grows from the bottom of muddy streams and ponds to rise above the water and blooms in a display of breathtaking brilliance. It represents being fully rooted in the material world (the earth) yet continually aspiring towards the divine (the sun).

The lotus flower lives in the muddy water yet remains unsoiled.

This is the path of the human who is awakening – to work through the ‘mud’ of life, and rise above it – for the benefit of all mankind.

We have to take the sticky, muddy, dirty and downright uncomfortable circumstances of our lives and transform it.

This is an “inside out” job, and it is ours alone. We cannot - and must not - look for some sort of external saviour at this time.

Delegating our power away to those we have placed in positions of authority ultimately places us in a weak position.

Deep conflicts permeate the collective

We are witnessing deep conflicts at both the personal and collective level that stem from human unconsciousness.

Indeed, there has been a deep unwillingness to address the great power imbalances that exist throughout our world; imbalances which are rooted in place by our various systems of governance, socio-economic, political, and legal.

Most people are feeling a deep calling for change, and are fed up with ‘how things are’. However, they are also living in fear… fear of ‘what if’.

Economic, geo-political and environmental instabilities are causing a lot of turbulence.
