Defference meaning of Swastika in East & West

Swastika is very simple and a common symbol, but looks like very artistic. This sign used by whole over the world in every country and in every common religious party, such as Muslim, Hindus, Buddhist, Jain. So that, there have some different swastika sign, such as, Hindu, Islamic, Jain, Maltese, Greek, Japanese, Jewish, Aztec etc. The swastika sign is much same to different nations and religions.

Though the sign of swastika is much related to look at, there has little bit difference of its meaning in different countries or nations. Like as, in eastern, the sign of swastika means ‘Well-being’. So the eastern nations and those people think the sign as good some things. Even they use the sign in their worship place for decorating.

On the other hand, the western people think the same swastika sign believed as a symbol of ‘Evil’, which is not good to them. They also believe, the symbol used by only ‘Nazi’, whose are the enemy of them.

As I’m an eastern, I want to say that the Swastika is good meaningful symbol. After look a sign or symbol we should not judge, these nations are good & pious and these are bad & evil.
