The Egyptian
Lotus flower is a symbol of the sun, of creation and rebirth,
because at night the flower closes and sinks underwater, and at dawn it
rises and opens again. According to one creation myth, it was a giant
lotus which first rose out of the watery chaos in the beginning of
time.
In the East, the Lotus flower is viewed as a symbol of spiritual
enfoldment. The lotus has its roots in earthly mud, but as it grows
upward in aspiration toward the light, its petals open out into a
beautiful flower. Om Mani Padme Hum, meaning, "Hail to the Jewel in the
Lotus" is the sacred mantra of the Tibetans.
The Egyptian Lotus flower symbol that appears on the ring, was called
Sesen in the Egyptian language.
Untouched by the impurity, lotus symbolizes the purity of heart and
mind. The lotus flower represents long life, health, honor and good luck.
