A brief definition of water lily vs lotus flower.

When common language differs from scientific language, then I prefer common people's language.

Some of the lotus photos shown are well defined lotus flowers, while others may also be called water lilies by some, specially by scientists.

In the peopleŝmind and heart often all are lotus flowers. However there is a small difference. As a general rule those lotus flowers having seeds / fruits are quiet generally agreed to be lotus. Those without the seeds are often also called water lilies. From a spiritual point of view there is far less difference between the spiritual nature of both. Hence I may call water lilies also lotus.

The lotus bears fruits - nut like and delicious, but has far less nectar. In exchange for missing fruits the water lily has a daily high volume of sweetest nectar.

How confusing the naming policy of lotus / water lily is may be seen across the www and seen on examples such as image captions like "Lotus Flower In Lilly Pond" so what is it a lotus flower in lotus pond or a lily in lily pond ...

I love a and use to call both lotus!

But to satisfy both searches and both naming-"fans" - the one searching for lotus, meaning lotus and the one searching for lotus but meaning "water lily" I may name it for all searchers of this beautiful exotic and blossoming water plant.
