Simple and old old puzzle

Guys this is my first puzzle and its an old puzzle..say my childhood puzzle…
everyone can answer if u think fr couple of minutes..

There is a lake - temple - lake - temple - lake - temple…one man came with some flowers and had a dip in the lake. Every time he dips in the lake doubles the flowers that he got with him. He must dip in all the 3 lakes and he must put exactly the same number of flowers in all 3 temples.

Think a while and tell how many flowers he took with and how many flowers he put in the temples.

I hope u guys dont need much time to solve this…

Have fun..
