How the world loved the swastika until Hitler stole it

the swastika is an ancient symbol that is generally agreed by scholars to have originated in India with its roots in the Vedas, the oldest scriptures of Hinduism. It is a cross with each limb bent at a 90-degree angle. It represents good fortune, the immensity of creation, and the unconquered, circling sun, among other things. o how did it become the symbol of the Nazi party?

Hitler became obsessed with ’racial purity’ and used the word ’Aryan’ to describe his idea of a ’pure German race’ or Herrenvolk.
