wet Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 I understand why I was banned, but I would like it to be known it was a mistake. The symbol represents the Buddha School and it has also been a symbol of good fortune in China and many other cultures. The Swastika did NOT originate as a Nazi symbol of hatred. SWASTIKA is derived fromthe Sanskrit word: SVASTIKAH, which means 'being fortunate'. See the SWASTIKA for what it REALLY IS: an ancient symbol of good luck, prosperity, and long life,used in ancient cultures such as India and China, where it is the central symbol of the FALUN Law Wheel.
