First, persistence and self-growth.

1. Lotus is born in muddy water, but it can thrive in muddy water, showing infinite vitality and indomitable quality. They live in harmony with the environment in their own unique way and always remain beautiful and pure.

Just like life, the difficulties and setbacks we face can't stop us from pursuing growth and progress. Only by unremitting efforts can we find inner beauty and value.

Second, detachment and abstinence.

Lotus blooms gracefully on the water, but the petals are always clean and dust-free. This symbolizes that the lotus is free from worldly desires and interference, and keeps a pure heart.

2. Life is the same. Only by giving up too much utilitarianism and material desire and paying attention to inner cultivation and spiritual sublimation can we get real freedom and peace.

Third, tolerance and forbearance.

1. Lotus petals and leaves are very wide, which can accommodate rain and sunshine and provide shelter for insects and birds. Lotus exudes a quiet and inclusive atmosphere, which makes people feel its tolerance and care for all life.

2. Life also needs to learn to be tolerant, accept others' differences and mistakes, and give others room to grow and change, so as to establish harmonious and positive interpersonal relationships.

Fourth, persistence and inheritance.

1, lotus root is rooted in the soil and can always hold up stems and flowers persistently. Even if it is stormy, it will never give up its mission and responsibility. This symbolizes persistence and inheritance, and perseverance in the face of difficulties and adversity.

2. Similarly, it is very important for individuals and society to stick to values and traditional culture. Only by maintaining inner kindness and integrity can we pass it on to future generations and make the world a better place.
