i used this picture for an english projest. The classic book The Odyssey by Homer. There is a section about an island full of people who eat nothing but the lotus plant.

I used it as a background:http://www.dipika.org/2004/02/20/11_sr_bhaktisiddhanta_app/index.html

Are lotuses good to eat? In China they eat the root as a vegetable. In India they fry the seed pods and eat them as a delicacy.

I am going to use this image, or a modification of it, in the logo for our missions team, which is going to Indonesia this Summer. The Lotus is significant to the town of Palembang, where we will be working at a youth camp on the island of Sumatra.
