Paullyn Sidhu lives in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The best thing about Paullyn Sidhu? She does not let anyone shape her words or her destiny! She says it best when she says it herself: "I am who I am. I cannot lie. I've been in the 'mud' before. I've had bad hair days, made lots of silly mistakes, lost my temper and been too frank for my own good too. But, hey - essentially, am I not as human as you are? Don't we all have four moods - "mad, bad, sad and glad"? Let me keep my kind heart please because I love reaching out and helping those who are in worse 'mud' than I have been in! Further, I'm not afraid to say 'hello' to strangers and talk to people from all walks of life! I treat everyone the same and I love being with people! Seriously, I'm not myself if I am not effervescent, energetic, positive, funny, charming and what-have-you! Many troubled people turn to me like sunflowers to the sun. I still see the "sun" in them even when they've lost their shine. I listen, comfort, motivate and cheer them up. My words and my hugs are my gift to the world. I always say: "Hey, it's alright - cry if you want to, but if I, like the sacred lotus, can rise above the mud, you can too, na?"

Book excerpt: A captivating history of one of the world's most iconic and mysterious flowers Bewitched by a lotus which flowered from three-thousandyear- old seeds in his English garden, Mark Griffiths set out to track the origins and significance of this sublime plant in this beautifully-illustrated book. The Lotus Quest takes Griffiths from the headquarters of the Linnaean Society in London to a mountain top in northern Japan. As he travels in search of this ancient flower, Griffiths looks at the lotus's significance in ancient Egypt and India, the plant's medicinal uses and the inspiration it has provided to Western artists. As he tracks the plant, its story unveils a stunning vision of Japan's feudal era with visits to shrines, ruins, gardens and wild landscapes as well as meetings with priests and archaeologists, philosophers and anthropologists, gardeners and botanists, poets and artists. He even dines on the lotus in a Tokyo cafe. By the end of Griffiths' journey, when he reaches the hauntingly beautiful Japanese temple of Chuson-ji, readers will finally understand why the lotus has obsessed people throughout the ages.
