a lotus lesson at the flower market

Hema's mom told me something important, while we were in the vegetable and fruit market.



You can live your life like a lotus, untouched by dirty water.

I was looking for something similar I had read, but couldn't find the particular thing I was looking for. I did find this, which has some interesting info. I didn't know the entire lotus is edible! I've had lotus root, but that's it.
