Swastika is a talisman of many tribes in ancient times. It appeared in the history of ancient India, Persia, Greece, Egypt, Troy and other countries, and was later used by some ancient religions. Initially, people It is regarded as a symbol of the sun or fire, and it was later generally used as a sign of auspiciousness. With the spread of Buddhism in ancient India, the word "卍" was also introduced to China. The Sanskrit word "卍" means "Sri Chu Laksha Na". It is the "auspicious sea and cloud phase", which is a symbol of auspiciousness appearing between the sea, clouds and sky. It is painted on the chest of Buddha Tathagata and is considered by Buddhists to be an "auspicious sign", which can emit precious light and "its light shines brightly." ", there are thousands of colors." The translation of the word "卍" in Chinese Buddhism is also inconsistent. A scripture in the Northern Wei Dynasty translated it into the word "Wan", and Xuanzang and others in the Tang Dynasty translated it into the word "德", emphasizing that The Buddha's merits are immeasurable, and Wu Zetian, the empress of the Tang Dynasty, designated it as the word "Wan", which means to collect all the auspicious merits in the world. There are two ways of writing the word "卍", one is right-handed, and the other is left-handed ("卐"). "). Most Buddhists believe that right-hand rotation should prevail, because Buddhism regards right-hand rotation as auspicious, and various Buddhist rituals held by Buddhists are performed in right-hand rotation. This mysterious character is regarded by Buddhists as auspicious and meritorious. The symbol was actually used by the German fascist leader Hitler as his party flag. Of course, this had nothing to do with Buddhism. The party flag designed by Hitler himself was a red background with a white circle and a black "swastika" embedded in the middle. Hitler was very fond of their design. Satisfied, he believed that "this is a true symbol." He said in the book "Mein Kampf": "The red symbolizes the social significance of our movement, and the white symbolizes the nationalist ideology. The character ‘swastika’ symbolizes the mission of fighting for the victory of the Aryan people. "Later, Hitler also designed "swastika" armbands and "swastika" pennants for his stormtroopers and party members. There are several theories as to why Hitler chose the "swastika" as his symbol. One is that it was designed based on the name of the Nazi party. The Nazi Party means "National Socialist Party". In German, the prefixes for "state" and "society" are both "s", and the two prefixes overlap to form a "swastika" shape. However, the Buddhist "swastika" is golden, and the Nazi "swastika" is black. Another theory was put forward by American scholar Robert Payne, who believed that Hitler had a strong desire to worship authority and pursue power since he was a child. There is an old monastery near his home. The aisles, stone wells, monks' seats and the sleeves of the dean's coat are all decorated with "swastika" signs. Hitler worshiped the power of the dean and regarded "swastika" as the dean. A symbol of authority. He hopes that one day he can have the supreme authority like the dean. Payne believes that this is the reason why he later chose the "swastika" as the symbol of the party flag. Another theory is that Hitler was influenced by a man named "New Saint." The influence of the "Knights of the Church" anti-Semitic organization. This organization believes that the Aryans are the best nation and must maintain their pure bloodline before the world can have hope. This is consistent with Hitler's views. The initiator of this organization is A missionary and astrologer, he predicted that he would be a world-shattering person. After hearing these words, Hitler was very excited. Therefore, he later designed the party flag. At that time, this symbol was chosen. This mysterious "swastika" title once made countless Nazis crazy. They once gathered under this flag to do all kinds of bad things. After the defeat of fascism in World War II, This symbol was immediately smashed. However, in November 2000, a British reporter photographed a fascist symbol of "swastika" made of trees from a high altitude in a jungle 110 kilometers away from Berlin. It is composed of 48 trees of different tree species from the surrounding ones, with a length and width of 60 meters, with clear lines and obvious signs. These 48 trees are larch and are surrounded by conifers that are evergreen all year round. There is no difference between them during the season, but every late autumn and early winter, the leaves of the larch gradually turn yellow, and a yellow "swastika" symbol becomes prominent. According to the investigation, this is a rich man in the French countryside when Hitler's activities were rampant. Planted on purpose.
As soon as the photo was published, it immediately aroused people's protests and asked the French government to eradicate it immediately. French law also does not allow the public display of Nazi party symbols on any occasion, so the Nazi symbol composed of trees was quickly eliminated. Hitler in Nazi Germany consulted a sinologist and learned that the Nazi natural symbol, the swastika, came from China, so he sent a large camouflaged archaeological and cultural force supported by aircraft to hike to Tibet, the cradle of Buddhism. Sure enough, the swastika symbol is commonly used in Buddhism. It is the symbol swastika on the chest of Tathagata Buddha. I wonder if Hitler found a natural swastika in Tibet. Indeed, the Chinese character expert was right. The swastika is one of the symbols of wisdom in Chinese culture. From the Book of Changes, swastika and swastika are used interchangeably. The pronunciation of 卍 is (contemporary): "ten thousand", Tongtai, wealth. The pronunciation of swastika is (contemporary): "Fu", auspicious and virtuous. Chinese Zen Buddhism also uses this symbol. "Huayan Sutra" 65 is involved in the Dharma Realm: "The chest is marked with the character Swastika, and it is full in seven places." Huiyuan's "Huayan Yin and Yi" of the Tang Dynasty: "The original character of Swastika is not the character. In the second year of Zhou Changshou, the power of this article was pronounced. It is a collection of auspicious virtues. "I don't know if the Germans have ever investigated the birthplace of Zen Buddhism (Yijian Mountain, Shuangfeng Mountain, Ziyun Mountain).

Several Taoist priests from Mushi Temple in Shangu Cave all claimed that "Taoism is born with the Eight Diagrams at the top of the mountain."

Badou Peak in Qichun County connects Taipingqiao Mountain; the north-south trend is south to Youhongzhai, north to Qichun Nanling Temple and Ziyun Mountain Daoren Ping Mountain in Huangmei County.
