Pooja flowers are often used as offerings and can symbolize a connection between the divine and earthly realms. They can also represent the universe’s grandeur, the soul’s journey toward enlightenment, and life’s eternal cycles. Some flowers have specific meanings and are associated with particular Hindu gods and goddesses.

Lotus Symbolizes beauty, youth, chastity, and fertility. It also has divine connotations because Goddess Lakshmi and Goddess Saraswati are often depicted sitting on top of lotus flowers.
