Lotus flower from Himachal Pradesh

Lotus Flower in full Bloom:
During my trip to Himachal Pradesh in search for herbs, I came across a village having ancient pond on my way to Salli village near Dharamshala, in Himachal Pradesh. I was fascinated by the site of this pound as it was full of Lotus flowers. I requested a village boy to pluck one of the flower for me and hence I clicked it for you to view. Its quite big and beautiful.
The Lotus flower in our ancient scripts is known as a divine symbol, its unfolding petals suggests the expansion of our Soul; the growth of its pure beauty from the muddy  water -origin -  holds a benign spiritual promise.
