In Hinduism, the right-facing symbol (clockwise) (卐) is called swastika, symbolizing surya ("sun"), prosperity and good luck, while the left-facing symbol (anti-clockwise) (卍) is called sauwastika, symbolising night or tantric aspects of Kali.

Swastika | The flag of Nazi Germany, officially the flag of the German Reich, featured a red background with a black swastika on a white disc. This flag came into use initially as the banner of the Nazi Party (NSDAP) after its foundation.

#STESSNews #BreakingNews #news
Swastika | The Nazi flag takes its colours from the imperial tricolour, with Hitler writing that he "was always for keeping the old colours," because he saw them as his "most sacred possession" as a soldier, and also because they suited his personal taste.
#STESSNews #news
Hitler added new symbolism to the colours:"[t]he red expressed the social thought underlying the movement. White the national thought," & the black swastika was an emblem of the "Aryan race" & "the ideal of creative work which is in itself and always will be anti-Semitic."
