Wow, I love your style! What did you use to color them?

~ROTFLSHTIPMP Feb 6, 2013 Student General Artist

^{I'm not going to reply, but I did want to make some information about the swastika. It's not traditionally a symbol for hatred. Actually, it wasn't even first used in the Nazi culture. It was first coined by the Native Americans for a symbol of peace and equality, and it was often called the twirling logs. The more you knowww.

Anyways, I love this picture. Your art is heavenly.}

wasn't it originally a religious symbol for Hinduism?

~VincentAParker Mar 30, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

Kat, yes. You are correct. The swastika in Hindu tradition means "All, One, Peace, All is One." The Hindus were the first to use the symbol, as Hinduism is one of the oldest religions.

(The Hebrews even took the symbol from them and created their letter "Aleph." Aleph is the first letter of their alphabet and shows a swirling motion of air and breath.)
The N.A.Z.I.'s took the symbol and inverted it. When you invert a symbol, you are actually producing the negative of what it originally stood for (e.g. "Christ/Antichrist" "causal/acausal"). When they inverted it, it showed "Chaos. Disunity. All is not one." They did this to try and show "ancient dominance" by linking their symbol with the Aryan culture that settled in Northern India and what is now Pakistan. So while the Thule religion they founded was likened to a pantheistic hodge-podge of Christianity and Norse Paganism, they were stretching partial facts and creating lies to link it to some "superior White race" that lived in the area -before- the Akkado-Sumerians. If you proved that couldn't have happened, the N.A.Z.I.'s shot you and called you a liar.
While various cultures have used the symbol for their religious purposes, it is in fact the Hindus that lay claim to it as the "point of origin."

Oh alright c:

Both and neither. While both of these were historical pre-nazi uses of the swastika, the nazi party of germany got it from norse mythology. The vikings used the swastika as a symbol of Thor, the thunder god, and believed that putting the symbol on the backs of their shilds would channel Thor's power into them. To the nazi's, it was a symbol of power. Also, while the swastika may have a plethora of historical uses, the ONLY use for the swastika in the white circle surrounded by red has allways been the nazi flag.

Its actually really funny to see when the germans would appropriate tons of archaeological evidence, making up excavation reports and claiming things as germanic when it in fact wasn't at all, so they could justify their invasions into other countries.
