The swastika also appears as an architectual symbol in places all over the world -- including the Spanish Portugese Synagouge in New York (built in the 19th century). I've been there a few times, it freaks me out to see stain-glass swaskitas everywhere.
Thanks for the interesting information. I knew it had eastern religious significance, but didn't know they use it currently in Buddhism. The stained glass windows -- that must be unique! Thx again.
