［真如老師。全球廣論］講次0066
這個白蓮在印度是非常非常少見的，大多是紅蓮花，所以讚美白蓮就是取它「稀有」的意思。
White lotus flowers are very rare in India. Since most lotus flowers are read, the praise for white lotus flower refers to its rarity and preciousness.

一般蓮花都給我們一種聖潔的、很出塵的、很清涼、無染的一種感覺。
Normally, lotus flowers give us the impression of being pure, unearthly, cool, and untainted.

但這個白蓮，它取稀有的話，就取釋迦佛的發心非常的勇猛和聖潔，為了五濁惡世的我們來這個世界示現成佛。
However, the white lotus flower, due to its rarity and preciousness, is just like the courageousness and purity in the aspiration of Buddha. He manifests himself to benefit beings in evil world of five turbidities like us.
