What is the symbol of Buddhism?

Buddhist symbols are different from fascist symbols and have nothing to do with Buddhism.

1. Buddhist symbols are different from fascist symbols in shape.

The symbol of Buddhism is "Ai", and there are two ways to write the word "Ai", one is right-handed ("Ai") and the other is left-handed ("Ai"). Most Buddhists believe that the rotation of the right hand should prevail, because it is auspicious for Buddhism, and all kinds of Buddhist ceremonies held by Buddhists are carried out with the right hand. "Wan" is a unique writing method of Buddhism in Han Dynasty. In addition, Tibet's Yongzhongben has always used "Wan".

The symbol of fascism is "Zi". Hitler thought "Zi" was the symbol of Aryans (ancient Indians were Aryans, too), and the Nazi Party meant "National Socialist Party". In German, the letters "country" and "society" start with "n" and "s" respectively, and the two prefixes overlap each other, so Hitler had an epiphany.

2. The colors of Buddhist symbols are different from those of fascist symbols.

The Buddhist symbol "the swastika used by the Nazis" is gold or blue, and the color advocated by the original religion in Yongzhong is blue, which also means eternity.

The fascist symbol has a red background and a white center with a black Nazi party emblem embedded in the middle.

3. Buddhist symbols and fascist symbols have different meanings.

The Buddhist symbol "Yan" is called "Yongzhong" in Tibetan. The word "Wan Zi" in Yong Zhong is the imprint of Buddha's heart, and "Yong" is the symbol of eternal harmony and the emptiness and essence of all laws. "Zhong" means immortality on earth. In Chinese, this symbol is pronounced "Wan". In the eyes of Tibetans, "Yan" means good luck, just like Han people. We can call "Yan" an auspicious symbol of "Yongzhong".

The symbol of fascism is "Ai". In his book Mein Kampf, Hitler said: "Red symbolizes the social significance of our movement, and white symbolizes nationalist thought. The word Mae symbolizes the mission of winning Aryans. " Hitler believed that Aryans were the best people, and only by maintaining their pure blood can the world have hope. So he chose this symbol when he later designed party flag.

Extended data:

"Wan" is still the traditional cultural symbol of Indians, Mongolians and other ethnic groups. This is not a Nazi symbol. The real Nazi symbol is a combination of "red on the outside (symbolizing society), white on the inside (symbolizing nationalism) and black (mistaken for symbolizing Aryans)". Because many people don't understand the history and global situation, the Nazi combination symbol is simplified into one symbol, which leads to serious misunderstanding.

The swastika symbol in Nazi Germany has nothing to do with Buddhism. It is a symbol of the devil of war who brings infinite painful memories to all mankind, and a Buddhist symbol that symbolizes great love and great sorrow for thousands of years. Whether it is connotation or extension, it is very different.
