"In darkness there is death.
It was the first thing they had taught him and he never forgot it. He could move unobserved in daylight, too; in other ways. But the night was his special friend." :ninja:

Sauntau, the swastika is a holy symbol in Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism.

In this case, because it's taken in Tokyo, it's not the nazi symbol.
:icontomzinho:
Ha. I waited for some smartass to say this.
Just like ~MegServo said: it's not the nazi symbol
:iconmegservo:
Oh thank GOD. Someone else has the same knowledge about the swastika.

I was afraid I'd have a bunch of people jump down my throat.

Thank you!
:iconphll751:
you are so right MegServo, this was taken in a buddhist temple in Asakusa Tokyo ! Peacefull symbol
:iconmegservo:
Very peaceful!

It's just a shame the nazis took it and made it such an awful image.

Besides, even if you took it to mean the Nazi symbol, it REALLY doesn't matter.

It's art!

I favorited it because it's a beautiful picture.

And I explained it all to Sauntau. :)

ineresting story. For everything there is a "bad" & a "Good" side.
:iconphll751:
You're so right ! Yet when you are inside a buddhist temple, you would never think of some ... history misuses... what a shame. I would think people would misinterprete that picture. Anyway...
