A golden lotus blooms upon the lake's surface, swaying gently in the wind — unstained by the mud from which it rises — while delicate ripples occasionally spread across the water. Upon the lotus rests a large, crystal-clear dewdrop, symbolizing the Mani Jewel: inherently bright, pure and, untainted, capable of reflecting all things, yet embodying the transient nature of existence — "all is like dew, like lightning."
