eBook 정보
'Legacy of Lotus' presents a fascinating exploration of how a single flower became one of humanity's most enduring spiritual symbols, shaping religious thought and architectural design across millennia.
This comprehensive study traces the lotus flower's remarkable journey from its origins in ancient Egyptian cosmology, where it represented the emergence of life from primordial waters, through its evolution in Hindu traditions and its transformative role in Buddhist philosophy. The book masterfully weaves together archaeological evidence, religious texts, and architectural records to demonstrate how the lotus transcended its biological nature to become a powerful metaphor for spiritual enlightenment.
Through detailed analysis of temple architecture, sacred artwork, and religious ceremonies, readers discover how the flower's natural ability to emerge pristine from muddy waters influenced its adoption as a universal symbol of spiritual purity and enlightenment across diverse cultures. Organized in three main sections, the work progresses chronologically and geographically, examining the lotus's significance in ancient Egyptian, Hindu, and Buddhist traditions.
The interdisciplinary approach reveals fascinating patterns of cultural exchange along ancient trade routes, while making complex religious concepts accessible to general readers. By connecting botanical science with religious studies and architectural history, the book offers unique insights into how ancient symbols continue to influence modern spiritual practices and architectural design, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of world religions and cultural history.
