On behalf of the Hindu community, we would like to sincerely thank Alexi Demetriadi and The Australian for publishing the article, “Swastika is sacred, Nazi symbols are abhorrent: Hindu leaders urge language rethink.”
This thoughtful piece is a significant step toward educating the broader community about the cultural and spiritual importance of the Swastika in the Hindu tradition, while also addressing the painful associations it has gained due to its misuse in history. By highlighting this distinction, you have helped foster a deeper understanding of our ancient heritage and its positive contributions to multicultural Australia.
We are grateful for your efforts to address this sensitive issue with respect and clarity, and for giving our community a platform to share its perspective. Such articles are vital in building mutual respect and harmony in our diverse society.
