The Swastika In The Theosophical Seal

By Arthur M. Coon

Book Overview

The Swastika In The Theosophical Seal is a book written by Arthur M. Coon that explores the history and symbolism of the swastika in the context of Theosophy, a spiritual movement founded in the late 19th century. The book delves into the origins of the swastika as a symbol of good luck and prosperity in various cultures, including ancient India and Greece. It also examines the use of the swastika by the Nazi party and the subsequent negative connotations associated with the symbol in Western culture. Coon argues that the swastika should be understood in its original context and not solely as a symbol of hate and oppression. The book provides a thought-provoking analysis of the swastika's complex and often controversial history.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Theosophical Seal, by Arthur M. Coon.
