Ancient Egypt given by the people who once inhabited the land (Kwesi, 1996). When the blue lotus was used in their artwork it was triangular shaped when viewed from the side. Flowers occur frequently in their art, with the blue lotus and papyrus being the most common. There were also drawings of people smelling the lotus flower, which some believe was used to induce stimulation or a state of utopia (Anonymous, 1999). The idea of the blue lotus flower was also associated with cups and bowls. They usually designed their Chalices and wine glasses as the lotus, which is still in common use today, as the champagne glass (Morenz, 1973). The primary reason for the use of the blue lotus as a symbol by the Ancient Egyptians was because it symbolized the origin of life, According to Watterson (1984), they equated the Creator-god with the blue lotus, which is believed to have emerged at some point in time from the primeval ocean, Nun. Ra their primary god, was believed to have first appeared as a beautiful child floating on a great blue lotus (Watterson, 1984). To the Ancient Egyptians, the blue lotus was the most perfect type of flower. The blue lotus, which had a delightful perfume, suggested to the Ancient Egyptians the perfume of Ra's sweat, the divine essence (Morenz, 1973). The evolution of life was associated with the origin of solid matter. They paralleled biogony with cosmogony. Kemetic religion was a fusion of spirituality and science (Amen, 1997). The Ancient Egyptians used the blue lotus as a symbol of the origin of life, but they also used the shape of the Nile River and its tributaries to symbolize the origin of life also (Kwesi, 1996). The blue lotus is shaped the same as the Nile and its tributaries, when viewed from above. The Ancient Egyptians believe the Nile Valley area is the birthplace of human civilization, which is why the Nile Rivers are shaped like fallopian tubes, symbolizing birth of mankind (Kwesi, 1996). The blue lotus had a variety of meanings and uses. The blue lotus was used in various areas such as: medicine, food, and funerary ceremonies. The Ancient Egyptians have made tonics from the blue lotus for ailments such as liver disease (Morenz, 1973). The blue lotus can also be used to make bread. First, they extract the seeds, then they allow for them to dry in the sun, then they pound them to flour, add milk then bake (Edwards, 1998). The root was also eaten, similar to the cassava, except it was sweet and round and about the size of an apple. Other uses of the blue lotus were for funerary ceremonies. There are several adornments placed within the sarcophagi on the bodies. Some are adorned with gold, amulets of various meanings, flowers including the lotus, and numerous other items (Morenz, 1973). Records from the Ancient Egyptian pyramids show that the flowers were also heaped upon the honored dead and the floral fragrance was thought to dispel the stench of death (Edwards, 1998). The blue lotus had a wide variety of uses and meanings to various cultures. They were used for artistic purposes, for symbols, to make bread, to make perfume, to make medicine and for funerary purposes. The blue lotus has had a profound impact on human society, and human civilization, including: the Ancient Egyptians, the Chinese, the Japanese, the people of India, the Buddhists, the Greeks and numerous other cultures around the world.

Lotuses are symbols of purity and 'spontaneous' generation and hence symbolize divine birth. According to the Lalitavistara, 'the spirit of the best of men is spotless, like the new lotus in the [muddy] water which does not adhere to it', and, according to esoteric Buddhism, the heart of the beings is like an unopened lotus: when the virtues of the Buddha develop therein the lotus blossoms. This is why the Buddha sits on a lotus in bloom. In Tantrism, it is the symbol of the feminine principle. The lotuses are usually differentiated by their colour and grouping, in three or five flowers, which may or may not be combined with leaves.
White lotus
This symbolizes Bodhi, the state of total mental purity and spiritual perfection, and the pacification of our nature. It generally has eight petals corresponding to the Noble Eightfold Path of the Good Law. It is the lotus found at the heart of the Garbhadhatu Mandala, being the womb or embryo of the world. It is characteristic of the esoteric sects, and the lotus of the Buddhas.
Red lotus
This symbolizes the original nature of the heart (hrdaya). It is the lotus of love, compassion, passion, activity and all the qualities of the heart. It is the lotus of Avalokitesvara.
Blue lotus
This is the symbol of the victory of the spirit over the senses, of intelligence and wisdom, of knowledge. It is always represented as a partially opened bud, and (unlike the red lotus) its centre is never seen. It is the lotus of Manjusri, and also one of the attributes of Prajnaparamita, the embodiment of the 'perfection of wisdom'.
Pink lotus
This is the supreme lotus, generally reserved for the highest deity, sometimes confused with the white lotus it is the lotus of the historical Buddha.
Purple lotus
This is the mystic lotus, represented only in images belonging to a few esoteric sects. The flowers may be in full bloom and reveal their heart, or in a bud. They may be supported by a simple stem, a triple stem (symbolizing the three divisions of Garbhadhatu: Vairocana, lotus and vajra), or a quintuple stem (symbolizing the Five Knowledges of Vajradhatu). The eight petals represent the Noble Eightfold Path and the eight principal acolyte deities of the central deity on the mandalas. The flowers may also be depicted presented in a cup or on a tray, as a symbol of homage.

Aromatherapy Properties
The Blue Lotus is connected to the expansion of the higher mind. It eases the spirit out of the body and assists it forward towards its highest potential in the realm of Spirit. It offers one of the highest vibrations of any flower. It is the symbol of the victory of the spirit over the senses, of intelligence and wisdom, of knowledge. As well as stimulating spiritual evolvement it acts as a "booster" to other flower essences by intensifying and spiritualizing their effects. Blue Lotus acts on all levels encouraging a gentle unfolding of the highest potential within the Self. We know today that the blue lotus contains nuciferine, a hypnotic compound known to relax smooth muscle tissue and to have vasodilating, hypotensive, and anti-arrhythmic properties. When the plants crushed seeds or concentrates are mixed with wine, a powerful sexual stimulant is produced.

never lose the intent to focus on their higher nature, nor do I withdraw my goodwill, which I seek to keep constant in the face of tempting trials, or hurt, or betrayal. I do not allow others to abuse me or take advantage of my good nature. I forgive and let go. As much for my sake as for the sake of others. I am a lotus unfolding, I am always basking in the blessings of the great goddess, we are all individual petals of the one divine lotus, infinitely blooming forth from Her ecstatic heart. This is an excerpt from the meditation "Lady of the Lotus" Copyright 2000
Level 1 Teachings
Level 1 teaches you to heal yourself before you can begin to heal others. It is important to work with this symbol for at least 30 days before moving on to the Masters level. There is a great responsibility in healing others, in teaching others to heal themselves. This should not be taken lightly. First is to balance your chakras. If you dont know how this is done there are plenty of books, tapes and internet resources to help you do this. If you are hoping to advance to the Master level you will need to have a working knowledge of the chakras and how to balance them and how to balance others chakras.

Next you balance your chakras. You may play music if it will help you quiet yourself. Release all negative emotions. Let go of all hate, all anger, all jealousies, all fears all that brings you unhappiness and stress. Know that for you all is working in Divine right order. See a violet flame starting at your feet and slowly working its way up body and exiting the top of your head where your crown chakra is. This violet flame is washing away all anger, hate, feelings of lack, doubt, jealousy, unhappy memories and any emotions you are dealing with now that bring you stress and unhappiness. (You know what they are) Count backwards from 25 to 1, relaxing each and every muscle in your body. When you are sufficiently calm imagine yourself surrounded by bright white light beaming down from the sun. You can see the light moving outwards from your body to a span of about 4 feet or more. Soon you are totally enclosed in a ball of white bright light that extends outwards at least 4 feet in all directions. Next see the Blue Lotus symbol entering your crown chakra and entering your spine, up and down your spine see the symbol and the bright white light moving. Soon you see it spread to all the cells in your body. If there is a problem area in your body see the Blue Lotus symbol and the bright white light surrounding that area, see a flood of bright white light beaming healing energy to that area and know that healing is taking place. Forgive all you need to forgive, see them in your mind and tell them you forgive them and then set yourself free. Anger, resentment and unwillingness to forgive cause more dis-eases in humans than anything else. Beaming the bright white light with the Blue Lotus symbol to dis-eased parts of your body daily will bring incredible healing results often very quickly. Know that healing will happen, believe that healing will happen. This Blue Lotus Technique also works with a full Usui Reiki session either on yourself or others.
Please respect this healing system and treat it with the dignity in which it is presented to the world. I would rather not see this system on Ebay, or given away on a free Yahoo group without any instruction. You may charge for this system, but remember it is your time not the system itself you are charging money for.
