Cosmic Lotus might seem an unlikely name for a website
that isn't about cosmology or lotus flowers. What's the connection?
As explained in my
article The Spiritual Meaning of the Lotus,
the lotus has not only practical and aesthetic value, but symbolic importance among
various cultures around the world.
The lotus represents qualities like nourishment, harmony,
spiritual development and transformation. It also signifies universal unfoldment, hence the cosmic theme.
CosmicLotus.org emphasizes striving for self-mastery and spiritual
realization. Both processes imply taking responsibility for our life experiences, becoming more heart- and
spirit-centered and courting a metaphysical worldview that grows ever more inclusive.
They also mean cultivating spiritual virtues, approaching health and healing
holistically, and seeking spiritual understanding of the cosmic laws of life from Life Itself.
Right relationship and right livelihood are also important, as are
grasping the body-mind-spirit connection, holding ourselves to high standards, communing with nature,
walking in balance and practicing environmental stewardship.
Beyond these basics, there are many paths leading to the Source: prayer, meditation, mysticism,
devotion to God/Goddess, selfless service, spiritual studies, intuitive development, etc.
Whichever spiritual path you follow,
CosmicLotus.org seeks to support you with useful metaphysical, spiritual and holistic healing content.
