Buddhist Swastika

Of or relating to Buddhism. Found mostly on Asian Mahayana Buddhist Temples and their Statues. If the symbol is found on a food product it means that the food is all Vegetarian, thus causing no harm to animals in the creation of the food product. Thus keeping with Ahimsa, a term meaning to do no harm, a common practice found in Buddhism.

Home-Schooled Christian: I dunno, I can't read either.
College Educated Buddhist: No, X-tard, that's the Buddhist Swastika, it means that no harm was caused to animals in the preparation of this food product.

Home-Schooled Christian: What?
College Educated Buddhist: It's Vegetarian.

Home-Schooled Christian: Well, fuck that, I gotta have meat everyday.
College Educated Buddhist: You are Karmically-dispositioned towards Obesity.

Swastika

The Swastika almost always gets mixed up with the Nazi symbol called the "Hakenkreutz" in which the outter lines go off right of the X.

Note:
Hakenkreutz (Hah-kain-kroyt-zuh)
Swastika (Ger): (Zvah-shtee-kuh)

"Es schau'n auf's Hakenkreutz voll Hoffnung schon Millionen
Der Tag für Freiheit und für Brot bricht an!"

Swastika

The swastika is an equilateral cross with its arms bent at right angles either right-handed or left-handed. It is traditionally oriented so that a main line is horizontal, though it is occasionally rotated at forty-five degrees, and the Hindu version is often decorated with a dot in each quadrant. The earliest appearance of this symbol dates back to around the 5th millennium BCE. It came to be a universal symbol of good fortune, harmony, and protection. It is a cross-cultural symbol that was used by ancient American Indians, Hindus, Buddhists, Vikings, Greeks, Romans, Celts, Anglo-Saxons, Mayans, Aztecs, and Persians. For most cultures a right-handed swastika (with the top arm pointing right and the bottom arm pointing left) represented life and good luck, while a left-handed swastika (with the top arm pointing left and the bottom arm pointing right) represented death, evil, and bad luck. Counterclockwise movements are thought to send energy out (white, bright, emanating) while clockwise movements are thought to pull energy in (black, dark, devouring). Buddhists outside of India started using left-handed swastikas because the right-handed swastika was used by the Nazis. Early Christians used it as a symbol of the cross, possibly as the cross in a disguised form. In Asia it is still used to designate a church on maps and the Kanji for 10,000 is derived from the swastika, which was associated with 10,000 gods. Many Hindus and Buddhists still consider it holy. The name is derived from the Sanskrit svastika, coming from su- meaning good or well, asti meaning being, and ka meaning little. Thus swastika means little thing associated with well being. A German archealogist named Heinrich Schliemann had proposed that the swastika was a specifically Indo-European symbol and this theory had become popular for a while leading to much use of it in the West between 1880-1920. It was because of this that the Nazis took up the symbol in the early twentieth century, seeing it as a symbol of the Aryan race. Of course, not only is the symbol not a specifically Indo-European symbol, but the Aryan race is a myth (the term Aryan refers to people that were linked linguistically, but who were genetically very diverse). It is lamentable that such a beautiful and powerful symbol has been perhaps irrevocably tarnished and entangled with racism and the holaucast.

Some form of the right-handed swastika is found in almost every culture as a symbol of life and prosperity.
