The story typically revolves around a beautiful lotus flower that emerges from muddy waters. Here’s a condensed version of the classic lotus plant story. , In a serene and tranquil pond, there was a lotus seed buried in the muddy bottom. The waters of the pond were murky and full of impurities, but the lotus seed remained hidden, waiting for the right conditions to grow. As time passed, the seed began to sprout and send its stem upward, pushing through the darkness of the water. It was met with resistance from the murky water and the weight of the mud, but it persevered, fueled by an innate desire to reach the light above. Despite the unfavorable surroundings, the lotus stem continued to grow, slowly inching its way towards the surface of the pond. The lotus flower blossomed gracefully, radiating purity and elegance. It stood above the muddy waters, untouched by the impurities that had surrounded it during its growth. In Vedic astrology Third house of any zodiac is most hidden and ignored house.
