Flowers remain an integral part of Hinduism with the main Hindu prayer rites called puja, which literally means “the flower act”.
Flowers are used as an offering to the gods as Hindus believe that by offering flowers, the deity grants good health, wealth, and prosperity.
There is a specific flower of each individual god. It is also said that the fragrance that comes with the flower are what pleases the gods and no Hindu worship is complete without the offering of a specific flower to different deities.
The lotus for example, has a deep rooted association with purity, beauty, youthfulness, and fertility.
In the Holy Scripture, The Bhagavad Gita, followers are instructed to model themselves around the lotus flower in order to maintain their sense of purity.
The lotus can be seen in Hindu temples where the goddess of wealth and prosperity, Lakshmi sits on. It is believed if you offer her a Lotus flower during Diwali she in return will grant wealth and good fortune.
One of the most prominent gods, Lord Ganesha favours Marigold flowers. It is said that Marigold is the only flower of the gods that can be divided into its petals.
It is widely used to make garlands for gods and goddesses at the temple. This flower is considered a love charm and is also used in Hindu weddings.
