Swastika (Hindu / Buddhist / Jain)
From Sanskrit svasti, "well-being" — auspiciousness, the sun, Ganesha; in Jainism the four states of existence.
Tradition: hindu, buddhist, jain · Period: Neolithic; Indus Valley seals (c. 2500 BCE); Vedic "svasti"
Note: Pan-Eurasian and ancient. The Nazi Hakenkreuz (1920, rotated 45°) is a 20th-c. appropriation unrelated to its Dharmic meaning.
