Decoding the Nazi swastika designed by Hitler

 

 

Sinval, the inn owner who claims to be of Aryan descent, chatted with Agudemba and Latso about the "swastika" symbol. Sinval always believed that the "swastika" character originated from the Aryans. What confused him was that the "swastika" character actually became the Nazi party emblem and flag. What puzzled him even more was that the Nazis involved Aryans when designing this logo.

Sinval said:

In order to draw a clear line between them and the Nazis, some Buddhists claim that the symbol of Buddhism is "Swastika" and the symbol of Nazism is "Swastika". This explanation is untenable.

What is the difference between "卍" and "卐"? In fact, "卐" and "卍" are originally the same character, and they are both pronounced as "wan". It is one of the thirty-two signs of Buddha. The Chinese translation is "auspicious sea and cloud phase". Most people believe that the "Swastika" character originated from India.

In fact, the earliest existing swastika in Ukraine is a mammoth ivory carving from the Late Paleolithic Age of 10,000 BC. Other early archaeological evidence of swastika-shaped decorations can be traced back to ancient times from 6000 BC to 5000 BC. The Vencha culture of Europe, and the Indus Valley Civilization of 3300 BC. As early as the distant Neolithic Age, the "Swastika" character has been produced and existed in many areas of the world. The source should be from the Aryans.

Sinval added:

The mysterious swastika can be seen in many ancient civilizations around the world, including Turkic, Indian, Chinese, European and Celtic cultures. The swastika is often associated with the development of the cross symbol in Bronze Age paganism, where the cross originally represented the sun and was a powerful early symbol. In Hinduism, the swastika represents the law or creativity of the origin of the universe. The four rotating lines represent the four directions of the sensory world, or the four faces of the great god Brahma.

Archaeologists have also proposed many different theories - the four lines represent the four aspects of nature: sun, wind, water, and earth; other scholars believe that the four lines represent the four seasons and the four directions on the compass. Or the 90-degree right angles on the zodiac corresponding to the summer solstice, winter solstice, spring equinox, and autumnal equinox.

The swastika can be seen around the world from Kush in Africa to the Caucasus Mountains in Russia. In European culture in the Middle Ages, the swastika became a common lucky symbol.

So why is the swastika symbol associated with the Nazis?

Sinval added:

I did a lot of research on this, and then I gradually understood it.

The swastika became associated with the origins of Aryans and Indians. By 1871, it was very popular in newly unified Germany. At this time, Germany wanted to prove that it had ancient imperial origins, such as the Aryan civilization before the Vedic civilization. By the end of the 19th century, the swastika appeared in German nationalist journals and became the official emblem of the German Gymnasts Federation. At the beginning of the 20th century, the swastika became a common symbol of German nationalism.

In the 1920s, the German Nazi Party adopted the swastika to symbolize the party's close connection with the Aryan race.

In 1933, after Adolf Hitler came to power, he adopted the red background, white heart, and black swastika as the flag of the Nazi Party as a symbol of fascism. He explained in "Mein Kampf": Any party should have a party flag to symbolize solemnity and greatness... In my ideal, our party flag should also retain the three colors of black, white and red in the old national flag. color. I did a lot of experiments and finally decided that the final form of our party's flag would be a white circle on a red ground, with a black swastika drawn in the circle...

Hitler did not clearly explain why he chose the swastika as the symbol of Nazism. Western scholars have made many speculations about this. Some believe that when Hitler was wandering in Vienna, he saw that the party emblems of anti-Semitic parties used the swastika as their logo. Some anti-Semitic right-wing organizations in Germany used the swastika as their logo. But all kinds of speculations are all assumptions made by people when studying Hitler, a special historical figure. What is Hitler's purpose in using the swastika as the symbol of the Nazi Party? Is there any secret hidden inside?

Nazi Germany turned the swastika to the right, rotated 45 degrees, and integrated it into the German flag. Since World War II, in many Western countries, the swastika has been associated with Nazism, anti-Semitism, persecution, death camps, violence and mass murder, etc. Together. Much condemned and stigmatized in the West.

But the symbolism of the swastika in Hinduism has made it popular again, because the swastika not only represents Brahma. It also represents Dharma (natural order), profit (wealth), love (desire) and liberation.

The Nazi Party officially adopted the "swastika" symbol in 1920 and used it on the flag, emblem and armband of the German Nazi Party, the National Socialist Party.

The Nazi swastika symbol is a pattern composed of words. Its origin is the abbreviation of the German Schutzstaffel (SS) to SS and then transformed into two lightning-shaped letters S. This right-handed swastika tilted at 45° The pattern is called Hakenkreuz, which literally translates to German as Hooked Cross.

Some people also think that the Nazi Party means "National Socialist Party". In German, the prefixes for "state" and "society" are both "s". The two prefixes overlap and overlap to form the word "swastika" shape.

Another theory was put forward by American scholar Robert Payne. Payne believes that Hitler had a strong desire to worship authority and pursue power since he was a child. When he was a child, there was an old monastery near his home. The aisles, stone wells, monks' seats and the sleeves of the dean's coat were all decorated with "swastika" signs. Hitler admired the power of the dean and regarded "swastika" as a symbol of the dean's authority. He hoped that one day he could have the supreme authority like the dean. Payne believed that this was the reason why he later chose the "swastika" as the symbol of the party flag.

Another theory is that Hitler was influenced by an anti-Semitic organization called the "New Knights Templar". This organization believes that the Aryans are the best nation and must maintain their pure bloodline before the world can have hope. This is consistent with Hitler's views. The founder of this organization was a missionary and astrologer who divined for Hitler and predicted that he would be a world-shaker in the future. After hearing these words, Hitler was very excited. The logo symbol of this organization is the word "swastika". Therefore, when he later designed the party flag, he chose this symbol.

Hitler believed that the word "swastika" symbolized the mission of winning the victory of the Aryans, and believed that the "swastika" was a symbol of authority.

Hitler described his original intention of designing this pattern in "Mein Kampf":

 

After countless efforts, I came up with the final plan: a red flag with a white circle on it and a black "swastika" in the middle. After long-term experiments, I also discovered the exact size ratio of the flag to the white circle, as well as the shape and thickness of the "swastika".

As National Socialists, we reflect our program in our flag: red reflects the social ideas of the movement, white reflects the nationalist ideals, and the swastika reflects the victory of the struggle for the Aryan race and the triumph of this creative idea. .

 

It can be seen that Hitler's original intention of using this pattern was to promote the superiority of his Aryan race. Later, Hitler also designed "swastika" armbands and "swastika" pennants for his stormtroopers and party members.

Sinval sang a "Song of Confusion":

 

Confused woman,

Stir in winter cheese when it freezes,

Not only can't you stir out butter?

Instead, your hands and feet will freeze.

 

Confused man,

Racing on the ice and snow in winter,

Not only can't we tell the difference between good and bad,

Instead, it will make you fall.

 

Confused believers,

To pray under the Nazi swastika flag,

Not only can’t we distinguish between good and evil,

On the contrary, it will offend the Buddha.
