What is the spiritual meaning of Camelia?
In addition to this meaning, can anyone explain what it stands for?
Camelia or Kamelia means "gazelle" or in other words "the gazelle is not there in us". In the Quran, there is a saying "The gazelle of the sea is not present in you". My understanding is that this is a very old Islamic belief and is used to explain the concept of not being free from sin. I have never heard of such an idea but I think your explanation is quite correct. However I like even more the explanation of "Kamelia" as "gazelle" or "sea gazelle" or "soul of gazelle".
A better way of describing the above quote is that of self is always full of all the good things of life/wealth but is also full of bad/harmful things at the same time. A camel gazelle (Dromedary) looks like this: So, is the meaning of "Kamelia" "a gazelle" in Islam? That would mean "Dromedary", the desert animal, so "our camel gazelle". Do you think that, in addition to this meaning, others understand it as "Our soul (which in the case of humans would be "the spirit/conscience") is always full of everything good (wealth, health, etc.), but at the same time full of bad too"? And then, that the meaning of "Kamelia" is that "gazelle", the sea animal?

What is the myth of the camellia flower?
When a young camellia plant, still growing within its tightly wound ball of green outer leaves, opens to expose a pink or reddish centre to the outside world, is this the moment that love enters the blossoms?
Or, is it only the first flush of springtime when nature is at her most feminine and playful? 'At last the petals unfold and open; they are red, the first real colour. Love springs up' - the German poet, writer and artist Rainer Maria Rilke.
A young camellia plant that has not been exposed to the external world for some time, will open in a way that is almost unpredictable. Sometimes opening to the light of the evening and sometimes opening on the inside, the plant can be unpredictable.
So what is the nature of this beautiful camellia and how does the unfolding of its blooms reflect the coming together of love in a couple? It may seem a slight thing to say that camellias are as much about opening out as they are about a romantic notion of a blossoming woman. They are, however, no less true.
The myth of the camellia flower can be read on its own as a myth about the flowering of love. It's a story about a young boy who falls in love with an older woman. Although the story is about a relationship it is also, metaphorically, about the opening of the self. I think we need to ask whether being 'opened' means you're a more attractive prospect for a potential lover.
The story goes: there is a young boy who lives on his own with no living family around him. One day he goes outside when it is cold. As he walks under an arch he sees the first small bud opening one of the camellias. It's the first time that the boy has seen anything like this and he can't help wondering how it came to be. He has never felt himself like this before. He imagines how different he would feel if he had someone to look after him. And who could ever imagine such an exciting feeling for him? And to think that he was out in the cold air and the day was dark. The story goes: there is a young boy who lives on his own with no living family around him.
What does the camellia symbolize in Japan?
There are many different stories associated with the camellia.
As with many flowers, however, the camellia symbolizes something more than just a flower. In this case, the history of the plant as well as the cultural significance of the flower are linked with religious beliefs.
The story of the camellia begins with the Aztecs, who used the plant to symbolize fertility. The Aztecs believed that the flower of heaven grew at the beginning of all things and was used as a religious symbol. As time went on, the Aztecs adopted the camellia as part of their religious practices. Eventually, they believed that the flower of heaven had lost its potency and needed to be preserved. To protect it, the camellia was sent into the mountains and there it is preserved. The camellia has been part of Aztec culture since the year 1520.
With the advent of Christianity, camellias became an important symbol of the religion. The camellia was thought to have special significance because it bloomed at Christmas and Easter. The Spanish introduced the camellia to Japan and it quickly became popular. This was partly due to the Japanese people's interest in Aztec history and religion. It became one of the favorite decorative plants among the Japanese. As well, the flower was thought to have special powers that would bring good luck to those who wore them or carried them.
Japanese culture has always been about a balancing of traditions. Even though the Aztecs originated in Mexico, the Aztecs were also influenced by the Chinese, who in turn were influenced by the Chinese. The Japanese were very careful about how they interpreted Aztec beliefs. They tried to distance themselves from the Aztecs while still paying homage to their religious beliefs. This is why you will find camellias as decorative plants in Japanese gardens throughout the world.
Did you know that flowers don't have to be for people? Flowers aren't for people alone, they are for the earth. Flowers are a gift to the earth to ensure that she never forgets the way that we treat her. Flowers are a gift to remind us that we don't have to use up everything in the name of convenience. Flowers are a gift to remind us that we can love without always being in need of receiving love.
