LI: To know some Hindu Symbols

What do we mean when we talk about symbols? Do all religions have symbols?

The Hindu Symbol of Aum This symbol is the most important and special symbol in Hinduism. Aum represents the Brahman (from where the whole universe came). When you say AUM you use every part of your vocal organ: A – comes from the throat U and M come from the lips

The Hindu Swastika The swastika is a very holy symbol representing the sun god Surya. It also shows how Hinduism is about every part/direction of your life. Which four directions could this mean?

The lotus flower Hindus believe the Creator Brahma came from a lotus flower. The lotus is also important in Hinduism, as, despite coming from muddy waters, it becomes a beautiful flower. People too should become kind and good and should never turn in to bad people.

What kinds of things to Hindu symbols represent? Your task: Design your own religious symbol. What does it represent?
