Mandala flowers
The mandala flower has always been regarded as the flower of the heavenly realm in India, the birthplace of Buddhism, and the name mandala comes from the Sanskrit word meaning to gather all the sages and merits together
In the Buddhist scriptures, this flower is used by the gods to popularize the public and enlighten all sentient beings (the heavens can land this flower at will, and in a solemn statement, the dojo can be cut off from bad karma).
Legend has it that in the Western Elysium, there is a country that lives on Buddhas, and the air here often emits heavenly happiness
There is a beautiful flower that falls from the sky day and night, and the fragrance of the earth fills the earth, and everyone who sees it can throw away the sins of the past and bring good omen and well-being for themselves.
There are many flower languages of mandalas, and mandala flowers of different colors have different flower languages, the most typical is the red mandala, that is, the flower language of manshushava is to evoke memories of your past life
The flower language of the golden mandala is a natural lucky one, and the flower language of the white mandala is closest to the Zen of the Buddha, and those who see this flower will remove evil.
lotus
In Buddhism, the lotus flower is a very holy flower, usually a symbol of the Buddha itself, which means that the bodhisattva has transcended the troubles of worldly life and death, broken free from the shackles of troubles, and reached the supreme state of no joy and no sorrow.
In Buddhism, there is a saying that "flowers bloom to see Buddha nature", and the flower here refers to the lotus flower. The lotus flower emerges from the mud and is not clean, which means that it is beyond the red dust, and the four are empty; After the lotus flower dies, it blooms again in the next year, symbolizing the cycle of the past and endless life.
The lotus flower is the first of the eight treasures of Buddhism, and its status in the Buddhist family is very high, and even Shakyamuni is called the "lotus prince"
In contrast, the Buddha was compassionate and voluntarily entered the earthly world only to save suffering and save all sentient beings, but after a long period of worldliness, he can still be as holy as a lotus flower. Those who see the lotus flower are like seeing the Buddha himself, holy and sublime.
The flower language of the lotus flower is solitude, loyalty, holiness and freedom, among which the flower language of snow lotus is clear rhyme and dust, and the flower language of red lotus is perseverance and courage
There is also a mysterious blue lotus flower, which is said to grow on the Tianshan Mountain and bring the dead back to life, which is a very Zen flower.
Eucommia Polo flower
It usually grows in high mountains and plateaus, and means auspicious and spiritual in Sanskrit. According to legend, the flower blooms once in 3,000 years, and its flower will only bloom when the Buddha appears
It's legendary and mysterious. In the Buddhist scriptures, it is usually used to describe the difficulty of meeting the Buddha to appear, just as it is difficult to see the flowers of the Eudiporass (the Buddha tells the sheriffs, if it is a mystical law, the Buddhas are coming, and the time is said, such as the Buddha is like the Buddha, when it appears).
People who can see Yuzumi Polo Flower are undoubtedly auspicious. It is said that in the Western Elysium, there is the Yuzumi Polo flower
The whole body is shrouded in royal magnificence, the flower shape is round and beautiful, from a distance, the flowers seem to be covered with snowflakes, and there is a spirit of spiritui, as long as it is a person who watches, it will be blessed for thousands of years, and there will be no worries for life.
Legend has it that when Shakyamuni was leading his disciples to practice, he accidentally saw the Euzumi Polo flower.
He said to his disciples, there will be a holy one who will come here to teach you the teachings, and you must cherish it. Thus the flower became the incarnation of the Holy One.
Linden flower
Since the six ancestors of Zen Buddhism, Huineng wrote the phrase "Bodhi Ben has no tree", the Bodhi tree has become one of the most well-known sacred relics representing the Buddhist family.
Bodhi in Sanskrit means wisdom, awakening, and refers to a sudden epiphany, sudden enlightenment, and otherworldliness. Legend has it that Buddha Shakyamuni died of old age and illness when he was young
Confused by the worldly reincarnation and other things, in order to understand and save all sentient beings, he sat under a Bodhi tree for seven days and seven nights, asked carefully questions, and finally had an epiphany and reached the realm of great enlightenment. This is why Buddhism has always regarded the Bodhi tree as its sacred relic.
The flower language of the Bodhi tree is sacredness, enlightenment and wisdom. It is said that the Bodhi tree is a sacred relic that is very seen, not to mention the flowers of the Bodhi tree, and legend has it that Tang Xuanzang only saw it once during his trip to the west. If you are lucky enough to see the linden flower, you must be the lucky one who is favored by God.
