This is the third in this series "Cosmic Connections".
 
I have been inspired from the study of water lilies, the outreach of which catch the attention of a passing bee. Just as a flower gives out  its fragrance to whosoever approaches or uses it, so love from within us radiates towards everybody and manifests as spontaneous service. These flowers grow densely in the water bodies and depict radial patterns. Radial explosions grab our attention like firecrackers bursting in the dark skyline.
 
The inspiration behind this series is the patterns found in nature. Recognition of patterns and shapes can profoundly affect how we see ourselves in relation to each other and the world in which we live, to embrace ideas that unite us, not divide us. In observing connections, we can establish associations that lead to kinship and the possibility of peace.
