I'm not giving any hints or anything, I want to see how much GC knows. What you must need to know is: What is it: What does it stand for: The name of it: I know what it is, the first person to get all 3 correct wins. Have fun.
1. It symbolizes a lotus flower. 2. The symbol stands for enlightenment and purity in Buddhist / Vedic texts, and is used as a symbol of becoming a buddha and escaping the samsare, or cycle of reincarnation. It also refers to the chakras in one's body and is seen as a throne where deities in these religions rest. 3. That throne is called a kamalasana. The different colored lotuses are all called different things also, red - kamal, pink - padma, white - pundarika, blue - utpala. But most lotus symbols in religion aren't likethat, which looks to be more of an interpretation, rather than something aethestically pleasing.
