Page "Sauwastika" Paragraph 13

Some contemporary writers assert that the swastika as used in Nazi Germany is in fact the " evil sauwastika ".

Since the swastika on the Flag of Nazi Germany was " right-facing " when displayed one-sided ( e. g. hanging on buildings ), this requires a redefinition of " sauwastika " as the variant current in Hinduism, and the " swastika proper " as the " left-facing " one current in Buddhism, contrary to Burnouf.

The notion that Hitler deliberately inverted the " good left-facing " Buddhist swastika is, however, wholly unsupported by any historical evidence.
