Just wanted to know if anyone could spread some light on a good luck charm, and indeed whether it is.

We were in Bangkok in January and after we came out of on of the temples, there were lotus flowers that you dipped in water and tapped on your head for good luck. Everyone seemed to be doing it. The tour guide said it was for luck, but I havent been able to find anything confirming this, on the net or otherwise.

Does anyone have any confirmation on this and also the significance of it?

Thanks in advance
