What is Swastika?
“Swa” means good, well, and “asti” means to …be, “ka.” The suffix -ka either forms a diminutive or intensifies the verbal meaning It is a symbol of good luck. Swastika is an ancient symbol of light, love and life.
By many Jews till today, it is seen as a sign of ‘murder’ as it was used as a symbol of the Nazis. The use of the swastika was associated by Nazi theorists with their conjecture of Aryan cultural descent of the German people.
Unfortunately, the Nazis were so effective at their use of Swastika, that many do not even know any other meaning of Swastika. But the stupid Aryan invasion theory has already been proven wrong by the western thinkers themselves.
Swastika is used in all the Eastern religions
Swastika can be either right-facing (卐) form or its mirrored left-facing (卍) form. While facing left (卍) it represents love and mercy. While facing right (卐), it represents strength and intelligence .
In Japan Swastika is called “Manji,” and left-facing (卍) is used to mark the location of a Buddhist temple. The right facing (卐) is known as Ura {rear} manji.
In Tibet Swastika is known as “yung-dung”, it was a graphical representation of eternity.
Today the symbol is used in Buddhist art and literature and represents Dharma, universal harmony and balance of opposites.
The Manji either right facing (卐) or left facing (卍) appears on some of the statues of Gautam Buddha
A 3000 years old Iranian golden swastika necklace from Marlik, found in Rasht, Iran. (It is) preserved at the National Museum of Iran.
Swastikas have also been found on pottery in archaeological digs in the area of ancient Kush. Swastikas were also found on pottery at the Jebel Barkal temples.
In Hinduism right facing (卐), represents the evolution of the universe and the left facing (卍), represents the involution of the universe. And hence it represents the two forms of the creator God Brahma.
It is also seen as pointing in all 4 directions (north, east, south and west) and hence it signifies stability and grounded-ness. It is also used as a Sun symbol and can be seen in its representation of Sun God, Surya.
The Swatika is considered extremely holy and it is regularly used to decorate the items related to Hindu culture. The Swastika is found all over the Hindu temples, signs, altars, pictures, icons where it is sacred.

(Swastika is used by Aryans (the one billion Hindus) since millenniums at the beginning of every personal or national auspicious event. it is a sign of auspiciousness. However, Aryan is not a race at all. An Aryan is one who accepts the authority of the 20 thousand-verse Vedas (whose 700-verse short summary is Srimad Bhagavad Gita) and strives to live according to advance spiritually. So, an Aryan can be of any race or any country or any skin color. E.g. the Hare Krishnas are Aryans in true sense. Hitler misused Swastika in 1940 time based on Aryan Invasion Theory (AIT) fabricated by 19th century European Ideologists. This AIT is now scientifically proven totally wrong. -Skanda987)
