Synopsis "Black Lotus Rising: Discourses from a Spiritual Prostitute"
For thousands of years the Lotus has been the symbol of spiritual purity in both Khemet (Egypt) and India. Similarly, the Lotus can be seen as the perfect example of spiritual growth and development in Western society. It is said that the life cycle of the Lotus plant begins when a Lotus seed finds its way into the sediments at the bottom of some warm little pond. In a like manner, many with the 'Lotus Nature' are found at the 'bottom' of society's social ladder i.e., the outcast, women, and so-called minorities; also those who have experienced the dark side of life. The lotus seed is planted in the bottom of the pond in darkness, veiled by the distractions that live in the murky water. A wonderful thing about the Lotus is that during its development, the plants filter and purify the body of water in which they find themselves; making the water transparent. Such is the same with those of the 'Lotus nature'. As they develop and seek the light of truth, they too filter and purify the body of murky water they find themselves in. One of the most important and fascinating things about the 'Lotus' is that even after growing in murky water it is untouched by the water's impurity. The fact that the 'Lotus' is untouched by the muddy waters in which it grows, points those of the 'Lotus nature 'to the concept of detachment. Not only must we not be attached to outcomes in our work, but we must not be attached to the world even while continuing to live and work in it. We must be in the world but not of the world. We must continue to seek the light of truth. Just as the Lotus flower spreads it fragrance throughout the pond in which it grows, those of the 'Lotus nature' must strive to spread the fragrance of God to all of humanity.
