And so does this swastika pendant carry a positive meaning?
Yes of course !
The term swastika is derived from the Sanskrit words "su" (= good) and asti (= it is). Thus, the message carried by this lucky pendant is literally that of good.
With its shameful use by the Nazis, this symbol already enjoyed enormous popularity among almost all people on Earth. However, it was in Indian civilization that the swastika was most popular. Religions such as Buddhism, Hinduism and even Jainism gave it pride of place.
For Hindus, this type of swastika pendant is considered a sign of auspiciousness, prosperity and good luck. We can find it almost everywhere in their sacred art, ranging from statues to religious books, including of course temples.
More particularly, it is said by certain specialists that the swastika has the power to ward off negative energies from our immediate environment. They actually consider that the four branches represent the four goals of man: justice (dharma), wealth (artha), love (kama) and liberation (moksha).
Additionally, this Hindu lucky charm can be associated with the wheel of the world, where eternal life continues to move around the fixed center, the divine principle.
Just like Hindus, Buddhists have also used this swastika pendant as a symbol of things as varied as harmony, prosperity, plurality, luck, abundance, fertility, longevity, etc.
It is common to find representations of the Buddha with swastikas engraved on his palms, his chest, his feet or even his forehead. Some Buddhists in India also consider the swastika to be “the seal of the heart of Buddha”.
So here we have demonstrated our initial idea: yes, this swastika pendant carries a profoundly positive meaning. Billions of people around the world even attribute almost magical properties to it.
