  • Resumen

  • This podcast series thoroughly explores the White Lotus as a multifaceted symbol across cultures and time periods. It examines the flower's significance in Buddhism and Hinduism as a representation of purity and enlightenment, its political dimension through the revolutionary White Lotus Society in China, and its modern cultural interpretations in martial arts films and HBO's "The White Lotus" series. The piece connects these diverse contexts through the lotus's fundamental symbolism of beauty emerging from murky waters, showing how this natural metaphor has been continuously reinterpreted while maintaining its essential meaning of transformation and resilience. The article concludes by reflecting on how such enduring symbols connect us to traditional wisdom while remaining relevant to contemporary challenges.
