**Hand-Painted Lotus Flower & Leaf Illustration. Original Design** **All hand-drawn and hand-written by the artist. Each piece is unique and guaranteed to delight.** In addition to the hand-painted lotus flower on the red envelope cover, a Chinese Buddhist verse, "A pure thought blossoms everywhere, like lotuses blooming," is hand-written slightly to the left and below the center. This quote, from the Tang Dynasty's "Records of Layman Pang," interprets the idea that circumstances are transformed by the mind, emphasizing the power of thought. It suggests that our experience of the external environment depends on our inner feelings, and cultivating a pure heart can create a beautiful life. The lotus flower symbolizes a "pure heart." In traditional culture, it signifies "auspiciousness and good fortune" as well as "integrity and purity." In Buddhism, it represents the wisdom of enlightenment and the state of awakening. As the red envelope cover is hand-drawn and hand-written, some areas may have slight pen pressure marks or minor unevenness from creasing. Please refrain from ordering if this is a concern.
