The ancient swastika symbol is almost universal
The ancient swastika symbol is almost universal – but made most famous by the Nazi rule of Germany and the ensuing World War 2 and all the hatred, violence and ignorance that was caused.
This fascinating read that will explain how the Nazi swastika differs from the other types of swastika symbols used in many parts of the world and which predate Buddhism.
Certain Buddhists temples adopted a form of the swastika as the photos will show.
Buddhism is about universal compassion like the rays of the sun which reaches every corner of the world. It is a four spoked symbol representing the Four Noble Truths.
