Lotus Buddhism refers to the teachings and practices associated with the Lotus Sutra, a key text in Mahayana Buddhism. It emphasizes the idea that all beings have the potential for enlightenment and promotes the concept of universal salvation. The lotus flower, which rises from muddy waters to bloom beautifully, symbolizes purity and spiritual awakening in this tradition. Practitioners often focus on devotion, chanting, and the realization of their inherent Buddha-nature.
