Thats a buddhist temple and think thats a different symbol. nazi symbol is tilted , that symbol is flat
Buddhism A picture of a Red Swastika Society memberBuddhism originated in India in the 5th century BCE and inherited the manji or swastika. Also known as a "yung drung"[17] in ancient Tibet, it was a graphical representation of eternity.[18] Today the symbol is used in Buddhist art and scripture and represents dharma, universal harmony, and the balance of opposites. One can see swastika on the Pillars of Ashoka where the swastika is a symbol of the cosmic dance around a fixed center and guards against evil.
This symbol (right-hand) is alleged to have been stamped on The Buddha's chest by his initiates after his death. It is known as The Heart's Seal. This would predate any other particular use ascribed to it in other texts.
The paired swastika symbols are included, at least since the Liao Dynasty, as part of the Chinese language, the symbolic sign for the character 萬 or 万 (wąn in Mandarin, man in Korean, Cantonese and Japanese, vạn in Vietnamese) meaning "all" or "eternality" (lit. myriad) and as 卐, which is seldom used. Swastika marks the beginning of many Buddhist scriptures. The swastika (in either orientation) appears on the chest of some statues of Gautama Buddha and is often incised on the soles of the feet of the Buddha in statuary. Because of the association of the right-facing swastika with Nazism, Buddhist swastika (outside India only) after the mid-20th century are almost universally left-facing: 卍.[citation needed] It is often sewn into the collars of Chinese children's clothing to protect them from evil spirits.[citation needed]
In 1922, the Chinese Syncretist movement Daoyuan founded the philanthropic association Red Swastika Society in imitation of the Red Cross. The association was very active in China during the 1920s and the 1930s [ July 18, 2010, 04:07 AM: Message edited by: 306Coupe ]

actually whatever way the arms reach out to it is still a swastika. doesnt matter if it's rotated either.
believe it or not... the swastika is thousands of years old, and is even included in jewish history along with indian, and american indian , and american history
it is generally a "good luck" symbol
there a couple cities in the US called swatika i think, and a bridge in arizona that has swastika's all over it
check it out....
