I was on my knees to this Solid Symbol of the Lotus

Once in a while, I come upon Lotus collections that bring (even) me to my knees.

Don't get me wrong: all Lotus collections are expensive and powerful, but some are just more expensive and beyond-words-powerful.

This is the category of Lotus collections that are worthy of an exclusive showcase, and worthy of your time to read about them.

Like this collection:

I don't have a name for this. But here's what this is: a full even citrine, double dragon guarding the flawless orb that creates your future.

By the Lotus standards, this citrine's quality should be reserved to carve into Buddha or Guan Yin, because they demand the highest clarity. 

Instead, we carved this into the solid symbol of the Lotus: Double Dragon.

Just like our prized favorite Double Dragon jadeite ring, these two citrine dragons are guarding the orb, burning away your obstacles and enemies, creating your dream future. 

And note this: one of the dragons is looking right at you. 

A front-facing dragon. In the past, only the emperor can bear this majestic symbol. Today, maybe you?

There are more secrets at the back and the base of this piece. Once you see these secrets, you will know why this citrine double dragon has the drop-jaw powers. 

These, only for the very blessed who shall own this to find out.

How Lotus treasures turn my dreadful presentation into a successful one?

I was in my previous job as a stock broker, that I was ‘arrowed’ or tasked to do a presentation that is something out of my scope (wordy regulations) to two very important people.

 

The day came for me to step up to the front of a packed conference room.  As I began I was very relaxed as I know I had did my work homework and my fengshui homework, I continued till the end with confidence and in pace.  And then comes the Q&A.  This is when it becomes a courtroom.

 

I was probed by the group chairman, who owned the firm and is a billionaire, as well as the HR director, who was known as unforgivingly direct.  I answered them appropriately.  And as they looked for uncovered areas, I expectedly stumbled.  I gave my best shot and they, to everyone’s surprise, became my benefactors by talking lovingly and caringly like a grandfather and grand-auntie to their grand-son.  They saw that I had done my best but wanted to make it better.  I was touched and felt very relieved when I managed to set the successful momentum for the rest of the presenters to follow.  In my 4 years at the company, never was this ever accomplished.  Not with any other staff of presentation.  I can say I was the first.

I thought to myself, my exquisite jadeite pendant did work to pull the Chairman and HR Director in my favour and my duanxi plum blossom inkstone did reduce the potential for arguments, turning them into benefactors instead.

How did I manage to be so successful?  I over-prep by consulting materials outside my company to gain new insights, and I diligently grind my duanxi inkstone in 6 repetitions as prescribed, while visualizing the desired outcome of a smooth and successful presentation. Holding on to my exquisite jadeite pendant which is a dragon-head ruyi, I recalled the emperor used jadeite and ruyi meant everything should go in my way.

 

I now had a win for myself, my department and my firm.  You too, can score a winning goal for yourself at Lotus on Water by getting a Lotus Ruyi Dragon exquisite pendant like mine, and a duanxi inkstone to grind away all the worries.
